OpenAI has released a new way to interact with its Codex app from your smartphone. An update to ChatGPT\u2019s mobile app brings remote access to Codex for Mac to the iPhone, iPad, and Android.<\/p>\n

Codex mobile access lives inside the ChatGPT app<\/h2>\n

While Codex is a standalone app on the Mac, OpenAI is putting remote access features inside the ChatGPT mobile app.<\/p>\n

\u201cCodex is now in the ChatGPT mobile app so you can stay in the loop from anywhere while Codex gets work done across your laptops, devboxes, or remote environments,\u201d OpenAI announced today.<\/p>\n

OpenAI points to uses around approving Codex tasks and starting new prompts for the system from your phone while you\u2019re away from your computer.<\/p>\n

As agents take on longer-running work, a new rhythm for collaboration is emerging. To keep work moving, you need to be able to easily answer a question, review what Codex found, change direction, approve what comes next, or add a new idea.<\/p>\n

\u201cCodex in the ChatGPT mobile app is a fully-featured mobile experience for getting work done with Codex,\u201d says the company.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you connect to any of your machines where Codex is running (whether that\u2019s your laptop, a dedicated Mac mini, or a managed remote environment), the app loads the live state from that environment so you can work fluidly across active threads, approvals, plugins, and project context.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how the setup process looks on the Mac app:<\/p>\n

After getting started, Codex for Mac presents a QR code that you scan from either the iPhone, iPad, or Android version of ChatGPT.<\/p>\n
