Everything Claude Code needs, on the go
Built on the Model Context Protocol. Native on Apple platforms. Instant updates.
Real-Time Session Dashboard
Mission Control view shows all your active Claude Code sessions at a glance. See which are active, waiting for input, or completed — with live status updates via WebSocket.
Send Instructions on the Go
Type or dictate messages to any Claude Code session from your phone. Approve actions, redirect work, or ask for status updates — without touching your laptop.
Voice Input & Speech
Dictate instructions hands-free with on-device speech recognition. BetterChannels can also read progress updates aloud with text-to-speech — perfect for multitasking.
Live Activities & Dynamic Island
Track session progress on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. See what Claude is working on, completion percentage, and status — even when the app is backgrounded.
Progress Timeline
Every session has a detailed timeline of what Claude has done: files edited, commands run, errors encountered, and your sent messages — all in chronological order.
Apple Watch Companion
View sessions, check status, and send quick replies or dictate instructions directly from your wrist. Never miss a waiting prompt while away from your desk.
How it works
Three steps to mobile Claude Code management.
Install the MCP Server
Run the BetterChannels MCP backend on your laptop. It bridges Claude Code sessions to your phone via WebSocket.
Connect Your Phone
Open BetterChannels on iPhone or Apple Watch. It auto-discovers the MCP server on your local network.
Monitor & Direct
See real-time progress, send instructions, dictate voice messages, and get Live Activity updates — all from your pocket.
Built on open standards
BetterChannels uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — the same open standard that powers Claude Code Channels, OpenClaw, and the broader agentic AI ecosystem.
Model Context Protocol
Open standard for AI tool communication, donated to the Linux Foundation by Anthropic
WebSocket Real-Time
Instant bidirectional updates between your laptop and phone — no polling, no delays
Local Network Only
Your MCP server runs on your machine. No cloud relay. Your code never leaves your network.
Claude Code Compatible
Works with Claude Code 2.1.80+ and any MCP-compatible coding agent
