PocketConsole: Build apps from your phone

Hey Product Hunt 👋 Coding agents like Claude Code are great at working on their own, but they keep needing you: permission to run a command, a question about what you meant, a "done, what's next?". Step away from your laptop and the work stops and waits for you. PocketConsole fixes that. Claude Code keeps running on your own server, and you steer it from your iPhone: from the couch, the coffee line or the airport gate. What you can do 🚀 Start Claude Code in any project with one tap, or pick up your last conversation. Write prompts with saved snippets, and attach photos and files. 🔔 Get notified when it needs you. When Claude finishes, fails or asks for permission, you get a notification and can Allow or Deny right from it. A Live Activity on the Lock Screen shows what it's doing. 👀 See what it built. Open the app it's running on your server right inside PocketConsole. It stays private to your phone. 💾 Save your progress in one tap and go back to any earlier save. It's git under the hood, but you don't need to know git. Back it up to GitHub when you want. 🖥️ Bring your own server, or make one. Connect a cloud server, a Raspberry Pi or a Mac. No server? Create one on your own DigitalOcean account in a few taps. Guided setup installs everything and signs you in to Claude and GitHub without leaving the app. ⌨️ A real terminal when you want one, with a keyboard bar, tmux sessions that survive disconnects, a file browser, and CPU, memory and port monitoring. Private by design No accounts, no ads, no tracking. The app connects straight to your server over SSH, your keys stay in your iPhone's Keychain, and notifications are end-to-end encrypted. Which agents? Right now PocketConsole supports Claude Code. More coding agents are coming. Tell me in the comments which one you want next, and that's where I'll start. "Can't the Claude app already do this?" Partly, and it's great at it. Its cloud sessions run Claude Code on a copy of your GitHub repo in a temporary VM in Anthropic's cloud, and you get back a diff or a pull request. PocketConsole is for when your project lives on your own server. The difference in one example: ask for a dark mode toggle. - Claude app: Claude works on a copy in the cloud and shows you a diff. To actually see the toggle, you merge it and run it somewhere else. - PocketConsole: Claude edits your app on your server, where it's already running. 30 seconds later you tap Preview and flip the toggle in your real app, on your phone. That's the video above. The same goes for anything already live on your server, like a bot, an API or a site with its database. Claude checks the real logs, fixes it and restarts it right where it runs, instead of handing you a pull request. Pricing 7-day free trial, then $7.99/month or $59.99/year, or $99.99 once for Lifetime. You need your own Claude account to use Claude Code. PocketConsole isn't affiliated with Anthropic. It's also ready for iPhone Duo: open it up and you get the big inner display. I'd love your feedback What's the first thing you'd build from your phone? And if anything breaks or confuses you, tell me here. I'll be around all day answering everything. Thanks for checking it out 🙏
