Work with Codex from anywhere

OpenAI
Codex is now accessible via the ChatGPT mobile app, enabling users to manage tasks and collaborate remotely across devices.

Summary

Codex has been integrated into the ChatGPT mobile app, allowing users to interact with and manage their work from any location. This feature enables seamless collaboration and task management across laptops, devboxes, and remote environments. Users can answer questions, review progress, approve actions, or introduce new ideas directly from their phones. The mobile app provides a full-featured experience, loading the live state of the connected environment, whether it's a personal laptop or a managed remote setup. This allows for fluid work across threads, approvals, plugins, and project context, going beyond simple remote control. Updates, including screenshots and terminal output, flow back to the phone in real time, while sensitive data like files and credentials remain on the host machine. Codex utilizes a secure relay layer to maintain connectivity without direct internet exposure. The integration aims to facilitate timely guidance and intervention as Codex handles longer-running tasks, enabling users to start work, unblock processes, and monitor results remotely. Examples include debugging bugs, making refactoring decisions during commutes, synthesizing information for customer calls, and quickly acting on new ideas. For enterprise users, Codex now supports connecting to managed remote environments via Remote SSH, with features like programmatic access tokens and hooks for automation and customization. HIPAA-compliant use is also available for eligible enterprise workspaces in local environments. Codex in the ChatGPT mobile app is rolling out on iOS and Android for all plans, with Windows support coming soon.
