Mobster for Mac runs your iPhone for you: it opens apps, taps and types, replies to messages and asks before anything goes out. Claude Code can use it too.

# Do anything on your iPhone with agents.

Mobster gives your agents real iPhones to test apps and automate work, on your own keys.

Every phone, one price: $12 a month, $99 a year, or $149 once.

*Mobster for Mac: you ask it to tell Maya yes, 7pm. It opens her Instagram thread on your iPhone, types “Yes, 7pm at Lupa!”, asks “Send this message to Maya Chen?”, and once you press Send, sends it.*

- Real iPhones
  Yours, signed in as you.
- Test and automate
  Check your app. Repeat your tasks.
- Your agents, your keys
  Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or Mobster’s own.
- The tools you use
  GitHub, Linear, Notion and Sentry, in and out.

## The phone is the connector

WhatsApp and iMessage have no API for your own chats. Your iPhone has both.

## Who it’s for

One agent for every kind of phone work.

- ### Social media managers
  “Sort my Instagram DMs and draft a reply to each.”
  20 DMs in 2 min 5 s, for 14¢.
- ### UGC teams
  “Post today’s clip on TikTok and Instagram.”
  It checks which profile is signed in before it posts.
- ### Indie app developers
  “Tell me what looks broken in my app.”
  6 screens and a planted price bug, in under a minute for 5¢.
- ### Mobile teams
  “Check that Pay stays off until a card is added.”
  Five checks in 6.8 s. Pass or fail from the screen, not a guess.
- ### Anyone curious
  “Find a cheaper flight to Austin.”
  It shows its plan and its cost before it starts.

3.91 s to repeat a learned job that first took 7.87 s, with no model and $0

By name it taps “Send” the way VoiceOver reads it, not a guess at pixels

Asks first before it sends, buys, posts or deletes

## Give Mobster a job

### Run every profile from one iPhone

Replies, comments and posts across Instagram, TikTok, X and LinkedIn. You approve each one.

### Catch a broken streak before you ship

Your coding agent checks its app on a simulator, with the screens as proof.

### Hand it a long task

Twenty minutes of basketball Reels, then what it learned, with its sources.

## Set up once, then ask

Ten minutes of setup, then one line per task.

1

### Plug in your iPhone

One USB cable. Mobster for Mac sets up the rest in about ten minutes, once.

*Mobster for Mac's Connect your iPhone: Xcode and the connection tools are done, and it asks you to tap Trust on iPhone 17 Pro. On the cable, the iPhone asks Trust This Computer?*

1

### Plug in your iPhone

One USB cable. Mobster for Mac sets up the rest in about ten minutes, once.

*A task typed into Mobster for Mac: Find the best ramen near me, then book a table for 8 on Friday. The run starts and says: this task will make 1 booking. It opened Maps and searched ramen near me. On the iPhone, Apple Maps shows the ramen places nearby.*

2

### Ask in one line

Mobster says what it will do, then does it in the apps on your iPhone.

*Mobster for Mac asks: Buy this on Amazon? A gooseneck electric kettle, arriving Thursday, $23.40 total, with Don’t buy, Buy, and a field to say what to do instead. Behind it, the kettle’s page in Amazon on the iPhone.*

3

### Approve before it acts

It stops before it buys, sends or posts, and shows you exactly what.

## Mobster for Mac

Every iPhone and every step, in one window.

### It asks before it sends

Before it books, buys, sends, posts or deletes, it shows you exactly what and waits.

*Mobster for Mac asks: Book this stay? Loft in the Mission, Fri 17 to Sun 19 Oct, 2 guests, $412 total. Don’t book or Book.*

### Your apps, signed in as you

It uses the apps already on your iPhone. Your logins stay on the phone.

### We never see your screen

No Mobster server in the loop. Each step goes only to the AI you picked.

### Open source underneath

Mobster for Mac runs on [Mobster’s engine](https://github.com/RadishSoftware/mobster), MIT licensed. Read the code that drives your phone.

### Your iPhone, from Claude or ChatGPT

With Mobster Remote, Claude or ChatGPT hands tasks to your iPhone at home.

### Long tasks, done while you’re away

It works through your inbox while you’re out and leaves a report.

### Conversations that build

Each request builds on the last, so “text Sam the second one” works.

### It watches and listens

It watches the screen, hears the sound and writes down what was said.

### Workflows that report back

Run a task on a schedule and send what it finds to Sheets, Notion, Slack or email.

## Questions

Not here? [Email us](mailto:support@radish.software).

- ### Will it send anything without asking me?
  No. Mobster’s agent stops before it sends, buys, posts or deletes and shows you the exact text. No answer in 10 minutes means no. When Claude Code taps the phone directly, its own permission prompts apply.
- ### Does my screen go through your servers?
  No. Each step’s screen goes only to the AI provider you picked, on your key or plan. Mobster for Mac contacts us to check your plan and for updates. With Mobster Remote on, tasks pass through our relay without being stored, and no picture of your screen does.
- ### What do I need?
  A Mac with Apple silicon and Xcode, an iPhone with Developer Mode on, and a USB cable. An Anthropic or OpenAI key, or a Claude or ChatGPT plan through Claude Code or Codex. A free Apple ID works.
- ### Can I try it first?
  Yes. You get 7 days free on your own iPhone, with no card. Mobster for Mac starts the trial once your iPhone is ready. When it ends, nothing is charged: you choose Monthly, Yearly or Lifetime to keep going. The trial is one per account and one per Mac. Lifetime comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee.
- ### Why not use Siri or ChatGPT?
  They reach the apps that built a hook for them. Mobster uses the app itself, signed in as you, so it needs none. Your Mac has to be awake.
- ### Does it work on Android?
  No. iPhones and iOS simulators.
- ### Does it work over Wi-Fi?
  Yes, after you pair the iPhone once with a cable. Wi-Fi is in preview.
