Rig for iPhone
Rig for iPhone is the companion to the desktop app. It shows whether your machines are online, asleep, or unreachable, lets you start stop and restart projects on Mac and Windows computers you have paired, and lets you ask the setup in plain English why something died. Every write — restart, kill, wake — opens an in-app confirm sheet, including from push and widgets. Chat talks to the MCP hub on your own computer over Mesh, not a hosted copy of your repo. Pairing is QR only. It is not a replacement for the desktop app, not a way to control other people’s computers, and not an Apple Watch or Vision product. Current version and changelog live on userig.app/iphone and userig.app/changelog#iphone. Requires iOS 17.
Does Rig for iPhone replace the desktop app?
No. The desktop app is the control plane. The iPhone app is the companion for seeing and acting on machines you already run with Rig.
Can it control someone else’s computer?
No. Mesh and remote actions only reach computers you have paired, typically via QR from that machine.
