Continue a local Claude Code session from your phone, tablet, or any browser using Remote Control. Works with claude.ai/code and the Claude mobile app.
Anthropic announced a new Claude Code feature called Remote Control.
The idea is pretty straightforward: you start a Claude Code session locally in your terminal, then continue them from your phone. Take a walk, see the sun, walk your dog without losing your flow. It's rolling out now to Max users as a research preview.
Anyone here on Max plan tried it yet? How the mobile experience feels in practice (latency, editing capabilities, etc.)?
"Take a walk, see the sun, walk your dog without losing your flow" is doing a lot of work in that description and it genuinely lands. The mental cost of losing context mid-session is way higher than people realize until they experience picking up exactly where they left off.
The one remote session at a time limitation is an interesting design choice. Keeps things simple and avoids conflict, but I'm curious if that becomes a friction point when you have multiple long-running jobs going and want to check in on a specific one from your phone.
I use Claude Code daily for building my AI platform and the number of times I've walked away from my desk mid-session wishing I could nudge it or check progress from my phone is higher than I'd like to admit. This is exactly the feature I didn't know was missing.
Congrats on the launch! Being able to monitor local sessions from a phone is a huge win for mobility. As we develop ParkEase (a SaaS for property managers), we’re constantly looking for ways to make complex backend tasks manageable from a mobile device.
Quick question: Does the remote control interface support multi-tenant sessions, or is it strictly one agent per remote link? This looks super useful for our dev workflow. Good luck today!
This is exactly what I always had in my bucket of TODOs, while I travel in bus to University and the way back is in total 3 hours and I believed having something like this would seriously make that time of mine productive.
Been using the @Cursor Agents, @Jules and recently the @OpenClaw to work in that time of the day. This will be the next try but I always thought how about having a computer on the go with me in the bus (not literally but to be able to control one remotely).
Visualising this I had one image like being able to project through maybe some VR glasses and do it? But to be cheap I also thought about how using a mobile maybe we can remotely do this and we're here.
What you'll think about the future ? Let me know and I'll share something I truly believe is the future but so much time for it to happen it seems.
