Back in March, a major agentic coding company made news when Apple reportedly pushed back on new versions of its iPhone app.<\/p>\n<p>Two months later, the head of the company says they \u201cworked things out with Apple,\u201d and they have a big new app update to show for it.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-1052372\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-replit-brings-agent-4-to-the-iphone-app\">Replit brings Agent 4 to the iPhone app<\/h2>\n<p>Replit CEO Amjad Masad shared on X this week that the company and Apple resolved the issue that resulted in four months without any app updates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe worked things out with Apple, and just published our app for the first time in four months,\u201d Masad says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThanks to all our customers and creators who helped out. It\u2019s been a journey, but we never give up and stay winning! Enjoy the updates! Lots of new things coming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For Replit users, the new update brings Agent 4 to the mobile app, which Replit says is built for creativity. <\/p>\n<p>Replit unveiled its Agent 4 technology in March:<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Replit Agent 4 Launch Announcement\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-2xHmkpmCBM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p>Replit\u2019s latest iPhone app update also introduces support for parallel agents that can work on multiple ideas simultaneously, team collaboration using merge flows, and the ability to view projects across workspaces. <\/p>\n<p>Alongside the release, Replit is running a promotion to attract users from other vibe coding platforms.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s unclear exactly what changed between Apple and Replit. The issue in March was around how AI-built apps were previewed on iPhone.<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, Apple may be planning some bigger App Store changes around AI agents.<\/p>\n<p>The company\u2019s annual developer conference kicks off on June 8, so we\u2019re likely only a few weeks away from some major announcements in this space.<\/p>\n<p>Replit for iPhone and iPad is available on the App Store \u2014 now with its first update in four months.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-dark\" src=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ninetofive\/dist\/images\/google-preferred-source-badge-dark.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Mac as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-light\" src=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/themes\/ninetofive\/dist\/images\/google-preferred-source-badge-light.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Mac as a preferred source on Google\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"disclaimer-affiliate\">FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links.
