Herdr launches official mobile app: Take over Claude Code on the go, assign tasks via voice, and ask follow-up questions with screenshots.

Insight Beating AI Flash News: Herdr is a tool specifically designed for managing AI programming assistants, essentially an Agent version of tmux. Claude Code and Codex handle code writing and task execution, while Herdr centralizes their management. Developers can run multiple Agents simultaneously, track each’s progress, and assign tasks between them. Background tasks continue running even when the terminal window is closed. On November 10, Herdr announced the launch of its official mobile app, supporting iPhone, iPad, and Android. This allows developers to remotely view and operate running Agents when away from their computers. For example, if Codex is modifying code on a PC and the user is out and finds it stuck on permission confirmation, they can resolve it directly via their phone. The app centrally lists Agents across different PCs, categorized by status such as requiring manual intervention, completed, and active. Tapping a task opens its live running terminal, where users can view output, input commands, and advance work. The mobile app also supports pasting screenshots, uploading photos, and issuing voice commands directly to Agents. Voice recognition can use models downloaded locally to the phone, or Apple’s or Google’s speech recognition services. Herdr launched a standalone herdr-core runtime and new desktop client at the end of October. The mobile version connects to the PC’s herdr-core via SSH, directly accessing the original terminal—no Herdr account required, and no data passes through official relay servers. Remote connections typically rely on Tailscale or other VPNs. The app is now available on the App Store and Google Play, free to use, but it is only compatible with the new herdr-core and does not support the older Herdr TUI for now.
