Set up cmux on iPhone and iPad

cmux on iOS connects to cmux running on your Mac. Your shells and agents continue running on the Mac while you view and control their workspaces from your phone or tablet.

Before you start

• Install the latest cmux on your Mac and keep it open with at least one workspace. If the phone requests a newer Mac version, update the specific cmux app you are connecting to.
• Install cmux on your iPhone or iPad. For the beta, accept your TestFlight invitation and install cmux BETA through TestFlight.
• Have both devices connected to the internet and use the same cmux account. If you use teams, select the same team on both devices.

1. Enable pairing on your Mac

1. Open cmux on the Mac and sign in to your cmux account.
2. Open cmux Settings, select Mobile, and turn on Enable iOS pairing. Do this in each cmux Mac app you want to access from your phone.
3. Keep cmux running and the Mac awake. If the Mac sleeps, shuts down, or loses its connection, the phone cannot reach its terminals.

2. Sign in and connect from iOS

1. Open cmux on your iPhone or iPad and sign in with the same cmux account as the Mac. Check the email on both devices if you have more than one account.
2. Follow the introduction. Enable Notifications when asked, or choose Not Now and enable them later. On the pairing page, confirm that you enabled iOS pairing on your Mac.
3. Choose Auto-Connect and tap Check for My Mac. This discovers compatible Macs signed in to your account. Auto-Connect does not require you to install Tailscale.
4. When the Mac is connected, tap Open Workspaces. Choose a workspace, then a terminal to view output and send input. Use All Computers at the top to change the selected Mac.

Optional: connect with Tailscale Only

1. Install Tailscale on the Mac and iPhone or iPad, sign both into the same Tailscale network, and confirm Tailscale is connected on both.
2. Keep Enable iOS pairing on in cmux Settings > Mobile. On iOS, select Tailscale Only in the connection options, then choose Scan Pairing Code.
3. Open Mobile Connect in cmux on the Mac and scan its pairing code with the phone. Allow camera access when requested and follow the pairing prompts.
4. Keep Tailscale connected on both devices when using this mode, including when the phone switches from Wi-Fi to cellular. Your Tailscale access rules must allow the phone to reach the Mac.

3. Enable agent notifications

1. Tap Enable Notifications during the introduction and allow notifications in the iOS prompt. If you skipped or denied it, open iOS Settings > Notifications > cmux and enable Allow Notifications.
2. Check notification settings in cmux on both devices and enable forwarding where offered. Keep the Mac running and connected so it can send new agent alerts.
3. Open a workspace with a configured coding agent and trigger an alert. Check the Notifications tab in cmux, then check delivery to your phone. Focus modes and Scheduled Summary can delay or silence alerts.

Configure terminal and agent notifications

4. Verify your connection

1. Open a terminal from the phone and run a harmless command such as pwd. Confirm the output appears on the phone and in the same Mac workspace.
2. Switch to another workspace, then return. If you plan to connect away from home, test on cellular before leaving the Mac.
3. Keep the Mac plugged in and awake for remote access. A keep-awake option may be offered during setup; use it if you want the Mac to remain reachable.

If no workspaces appear

After correcting a setup issue, return to Workspaces and tap Retry. Retry reconnects to a saved Mac or refreshes the workspace list and account-backed connection information.

The Mac is missing

Check Enable iOS pairing in Settings > Mobile on the exact Mac app you opened. Confirm the same cmux account and team on both devices, and keep that Mac app running. Use the Computers button to inspect available Macs and check whether you hid the computer.

cmux asks for a newer Mac app

Update cmux on the Mac, then quit and reopen that app. If you run several cmux versions, confirm the phone is selecting the updated one. Follow the minimum version shown by the iOS app.

The Mac appears but will not connect

Wake the Mac and check internet access on both devices. Allow Local Network access on iOS if requested. For Tailscale Only, check that both Tailscale apps are connected to the same network and that access rules permit the connection. Then tap Retry.

The connection works but the list is empty

Create or open a workspace in cmux on the Mac. On the phone, choose All Computers and clear workspace search or filters. Pull down to refresh the list, or tap Retry in the empty state.

Still need help?

Include your cmux versions on Mac and iOS, your connection mode, the exact error, and whether the Mac appears under Computers. Never include passwords or pairing codes.

Pré-requisitos

Antes de começar, você precisa de:

• Um Mac executando o cmux e com login feito.
• Um iPhone ou iPad com o app cmux BETA instalado pelo TestFlight.
• Um caminho de rede do seu celular até o seu Mac (consulte Rede própria abaixo).

Rede própria

O cmux não fornece rede pronta para uso. O fluxo do terminal vai diretamente entre o seu celular e o seu Mac, então o celular precisa conseguir alcançar o Mac na rede. A forma mais simples é uma rede de sobreposição privada.

Tailscale (recomendado)

Instale o Tailscale no seu Mac e no seu celular e faça login na mesma tailnet. Seu celular passa a alcançar o Mac pelo endereço de tailnet de qualquer lugar, sem encaminhamento de portas.

WireGuard

Se você já usa o WireGuard, coloque seu Mac e seu celular na mesma rede e use o endereço WireGuard do Mac.

Parear e conectar

1. No Mac, abra a janela Mobile Connect no cmux.
2. No celular, abra o app cmux BETA e confirme o pareamento mostrado em Mobile Connect.
3. Depois de pareados, seus workspaces e terminais aparecem no celular pela sua rede.

O pareamento é por dispositivo. Um novo dispositivo, ou um app reinstalado, pareia de novo.

Notificações

Você pode optar por encaminhar as notificações do terminal para o seu celular, de modo que um painel que precisa de atenção envie um aviso ao seu dispositivo. Quando o encaminhamento está ativado, o texto da notificação (título e corpo, extraídos da saída do terminal) é enviado pelos servidores do cmux ao serviço de push da Apple para entrega. Ative Hide content nas configurações de notificação para enviar uma mensagem genérica e manter o texto do terminal nos seus dispositivos. Consulte notificações para saber como o cmux as gera.

Quais dados são armazenados

O cmux foi feito para que o seu terminal fique entre os seus dispositivos. Nos servidores do cmux armazenamos apenas o necessário para fazer seu login e conectar seus dispositivos:

• Sua conta do login (e-mail), para identificá-lo entre os dispositivos.
• Um token de push do seu dispositivo, para entregar as notificações de terminal encaminhadas.
• Metadados de pareamento e do dispositivo, para conectar seu celular ao seu Mac.
