Waycar: your coding agents, in your pocket

Step away from your desk without losing the thread. Waycar is a native iPhone and iPad app for checking on Claude Code, Codex, omp, Gemini, opencode, pi and other coding agents. They keep running on your Mac or Linux machine while you're out.

Why you'll like it

• Sessions that survive real life. Agent terminals run over mosh, so switching from Wi-Fi to cellular doesn't drop them. If your phone sleeps or the signal dies, Waycar re-attaches on its own and shows the last screen while it reconnects.
• Always a way in. If mosh can't get through, Waycar falls back to SSH automatically. A MOSH or SSH badge shows which one you're on.
• Talk to your agent, skip the terminal. Turn on Chat Mode for a simple chat view with your messages, the agent's replies, and a line saying what it's doing. Images and videos the agent shows you appear in the chat.
• Answer from the lock screen. Notifications carry the agent's reply. When the agent asks permission, tap Allow or Cancel right in the chat.
• Type at full speed. Write prompts in the Composer on your phone, so a weak signal never slows your typing. The whole message goes out when you hit Send.
• Start a chat from the Home Screen. Touch and hold the icon and tap New Chat.
• Private by design. No account. Your sessions go straight from your phone to your own machine.
