OpenAI has integrated its AI coding assistant Codex into the ChatGPT for iOS and Android, enabling developers to monitor and manage coding tasks remotely. The feature allows real-time updates, approvals, and task control across devices, including remote environments. It is rolling out in preview across all plans, with expanded enterprise and security features.
OpenAI — the parent company of ChatGPT — has integrated its AI coding assistant Codex into the ChatGPT mobile app for iOS and Android users, allowing developers to monitor, manage and approve coding tasks remotely from their smartphones.
The feature is currently being introduced in preview mode across all ChatGPT plans, including Free and Go, in supported regions.
With the integration, users can connect their phones to machines running Codex — including laptops, Mac minis, devboxes and managed remote environments — and access live project updates directly through the ChatGPT app.
According to OpenAI, the mobile experience allows users to review outputs, approve commands, switch AI models, start new coding tasks and monitor ongoing threads without returning to their desktop systems.
“Real-time updates such as screenshots, terminal output, diffs, test results and approvals are synced to the mobile app, while files, credentials and permissions remain on the connected machine,” the AI company said.
The company further highlighted that more than 4 million users are now using Codex every week.
