"This is more than the ability to remotely control a single task or dispatch new tasks to your computer. From your phone, you can work across all of your threads, review outputs, approve commands, change models, or start something new."
"The new function allows users to see their Codex live environments in any devices where it is running. The company announced the changes Thursday; the update, which is currently in preview, is now available to all plans on iOS and Android."
"Last month, OpenAI also gave Codex the ability to run in the background in desktop environments - empowering the tool to take care of various tasks autonomously. Earlier this month, the company also introduced a Chrome extension that allows the agent to work in live browser sessions."
"In February, Anthropic released a similar feature - Remote Control - which allows users to remotely monitor Claude Code's work from afar. The flurry of feature releases from both OpenAI and Anthropic speaks to the tense competition between the two over whose agentic coding tool will become the most widely used."
Codex has been integrated into the ChatGPT app for iOS and Android, currently available in preview to all plans. The mobile function lets users view Codex live environments on any device where it is running. Users can work across multiple threads, review outputs, approve commands, change models, and start new tasks from a phone. Earlier updates enabled Codex to run in the background on desktop environments for autonomous task handling. A Chrome extension also allows Codex to operate in live browser sessions. Similar remote monitoring capabilities were released by Anthropic for Claude Code, intensifying competition between the two agentic coding tools.
