Overview
- OpenAI integrated Codex into the ChatGPT app on iOS and Android on Thursday in a preview for all plans, including Free and Go.
- From a phone, users connect to machines running Codex and see the live state to review outputs, approve commands, switch models, or start new tasks while work continues on the host.
- The mobile client supports macOS hosts today with Windows connectivity coming soon, and pairing starts by scanning a QR code shown in the Codex Mac app.
- A secure relay links the phone to trusted machines without putting them on the public internet, and files, credentials, and permissions stay on the host device.
- OpenAI also rolled out enterprise features including Remote SSH, programmatic access tokens, Hooks, and HIPAA options, as coverage notes rising competition with Anthropic and more than four million weekly Codex users.
