Remote control

Continue a Claude chat from your phone or browser while it keeps running on your Mac.

How it works#

Remote control lets you carry on a Claude chat from your phone or a browser. The chat does not move: it keeps running on your Mac with your files and tools, and your phone becomes another window into it.

  • History shows on both sides.
  • Messages from either side stay in sync.
  • Approval requests appear on both the Mac and the other device.
  • Your Mac must stay on and awake.

Connect a chat#

  1. 1In a Claude chat, run /remote-control, or click Claude Remote Control in the chat header and choose Enable.
  2. 2Open the chat in a browser from the banner above the message box, or pick it up in the Claude mobile app.
  3. 3Run the command again, or choose Disconnect, to stop.
