When Claude Code needs a permission, has a question, or finishes a long run — your iPhone, Apple Watch, or Vision Pro gets the message. Allow or deny from the lock screen. End-to-end encrypted, no accounts, nothing to configure twice.
The real command on your lock screen, with Allow and Deny under your thumb. Allow requires Face ID.
Claude's multiple-choice questions arrive with real option buttons — answer from the watch, or dictate a custom reply.
Long run finished, stalled, or waiting on you? Your phone knows — but only when you're actually away from the desk.
Everything is encrypted between your computer and your phone. The relay in the middle can't read a single byte of it.
http://127.0.0.1:37123/pair), scan the QR with the app, and confirm on the desktop. Done: the next prompt Claude parks will reach your phone.Pair as many computers as you like — work machine and home machine prompts arrive side by side, each labeled with its machine name.
No. On Mac, the free Claude Control Helper is all you need — a small menu-bar app with no Elgato software involved. A standalone Windows helper is coming soon; today, Windows users run the desktop side via the Stream Deck plugin. If you own both, they coexist politely — the plugin takes charge and the helper stands by automatically.
In desk mode, about 30 seconds — miss it and Claude's normal in-app prompt appears, so nothing is ever lost. Flip on Away mode (the moon button in the app) and prompts wait nearly five minutes, tuned for a phone in your pocket. The countdown on each prompt always shows the real deadline.
Nothing bad. Dismissing is never treated as a deny — the prompt stays live in the app until it expires, the dismissal is logged in your activity feed, and if it eventually expires unanswered the app pages you again with a "stalled" alert.
Yes — notifications mirror to the watch automatically with the same Allow/Deny buttons, and question options appear as tappable choices. No separate watch app needed. Custom "Other" answers support dictation from the wrist.
Almost nothing: a random pairing identifier, a push token, and encrypted blobs it forwards. Message contents — commands, file paths, questions, answers — are sealed end-to-end between your computer and your phone with keys that never leave your devices. The relay is open source and self-hostable if you'd rather run your own. Details on the privacy page.
Three things, in order: the Stream Deck software is running on the computer (the plugin lives inside it), the computer is online, and the app is paired (Settings → your desktop should show as confirmed). Re-pairing takes thirty seconds and always fixes a broken state: scan the QR again and confirm on the desktop.
The prompt expired before your answer arrived (or someone answered from the desk first — first answer wins, by design). Late answers are harmless: they're simply ignored, and the outcome in your Recent list tells you who or what settled each prompt.
No. Claude Control Mobile is an independent product by Eudaimonia Software. Claude is a trademark of Anthropic, PBC; this app simply works alongside the Claude Code developer tool you already run.
