How Togo stacks up

Other ways to reach a coding agent from your phone, compared across the whole loop: hearing that it needs you, answering, checking what changed and carrying on. Every fact about another product comes from its own public pages.

Togo is in public beta on TestFlight, and the App Store release is in review. It runs on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, with no Android app, and needs a Mac or Linux computer you own with tmux.

Whichever you pick, your agent still sends your prompts and code to its model provider, as it does at your desk. This page compares how each one gets your phone to the session.

Side by side

What each one does best, and where Togo differs.

  • Claude Code Remote Control and Togo

    First-party

    The official way to carry on a Claude Code session from Anthropic's mobile app or a browser, on iPhone or Android, with your files and tools still on your computer. It comes with the Pro, Max, Ultra, Team or Enterprise plan you already use for Claude Code.

    Togo has a chat for omp, OpenCode, Pi and many other agents, keeps the real terminal one tap away, and your phone connects straight to your computer over SSH or Mosh. Requests can be answered from the Lock Screen or the Watch. Togo is for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch only.

  • Happy and Togo

    Agent client

    One open-source app for Claude Code, Codex, Grok, Gemini and more, on iPhone and Android, with sessions end-to-end encrypted through its relay. Its desktop side runs on Windows as well as Mac and Linux.

    In Togo the phone connects straight to your computer over SSH or Mosh; its relay carries sealed alerts and answers, and a Live Activity's plain status. Each agent's terminal sits beside the chat, and requests can be answered from the notification, a Live Activity or the Watch.

  • Paseo and Togo

    Agent client

    An open-source workspace for running many agents side by side in their own worktrees, with a full native app on iOS and Android that carries files, terminals and diffs.

    Togo's agents run in tmux, so you can attach to the same session from any terminal at your desk, and a request can be answered from the Lock Screen or the Watch without opening the app.

    paseo.sh
  • T3 Code and Togo

    Agent client

    A free, open-source control surface for Codex, Claude Code, Cursor and others, whose mobile app brings most of the desktop to the phone, Live Activity updates included.

    Togo's agents run in tmux beside a small helper, so the same session is there in any terminal at your desk. Requests can be answered from the notification, a Live Activity or the Watch without opening the app.

  • Orca and Togo

    Agent client

    A desktop environment for running any CLI agent in parallel worktrees, with a mobile companion, still in beta, that offers a chat view or the raw terminal, diffs and pull-request comments.

    Orca's phone app connects through the desktop app, which has to stay open. Togo's sessions run in tmux on the computer, and requests can be answered from a Live Activity or the Watch.

  • Termius and Togo

    SSH client

    A polished SSH client on every platform, Android included, with Mosh and an option to start your agent as soon as you connect. With tmux on the host, the session outlives the connection.

    Togo works on the same kind of tmux session but shows it as a native chat, and tells you when one needs you.

    termius.com
  • SSH client

    An open-source, desktop-grade terminal for iPhone and iPad, built on Mosh so a connection rides out network changes.

    Togo adds a native chat on top of the terminal, push when an agent needs you, and answers from the Lock Screen and the Watch.

    blink.sh
  • Secure ShellFish and Togo

    SSH client

    A native SSH terminal for iPhone, iPad and Mac with tmux, Mosh and the Files app, plus widgets, Live Activities and Watch complications you drive from the server. Its shell integration sets up Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode to notify you when they need input or finish.

    Togo reads the agent's request itself and puts Approve and Deny on the notification, the Live Activity and the Watch, beside a native chat for omp, OpenCode, Pi and many other agents.
