# Avibe on iPhone

> Install the Avibe iPhone app from TestFlight, sign in, and open the Avibe that runs on your computer.

The iPhone app is your Avibe in your pocket. It opens the same conversations you have on your computer, lets you talk to your Bots by typing or by voice, and notifies you when a job finishes or needs a decision.

It connects to the Avibe that runs on your computer. It does not run agents by itself, and it does not hold your workspace: with no computer running Avibe, the app has nothing to open.

The app is a public beta, distributed through Apple's TestFlight. It needs iOS 17 or later.

## Before you start

You need Avibe running on a computer, added to your avibe.bot account:

* **Desktop app (Mac or Windows):** sign in at the end of setup, or later from the bottom of the sidebar. Signing in adds the computer to your account and turns on remote access.
* **Command-line install (Linux, servers):** run `vibe remote` and follow the prompts.

[Remote access](https://docs.avibe.bot/concepts/remote-ui.md) explains both.

## Install and sign in

**1. Install TestFlight**

On your iPhone, install [TestFlight](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/testflight/id899247664) from the App Store. It is Apple's app for beta versions.

**2. Accept the invitation**

Open [testflight.apple.com/join/HXqwMqeX](https://testflight.apple.com/join/HXqwMqeX) on the iPhone, then tap **Accept** and **Install**. The app is listed as **Avibe OS**.

**3. Sign in**

Open the app and tap **Sign in / Create account**. Enter the email of your avibe.bot account, then the 6-digit code that arrives by email.

**4. Pick your computer**

The app lists the computers in your account, and any that someone shares with you. Tap the one you want. It has to be online: the computer is on, Avibe is running, and it is connected to the internet.

The app remembers your choice. To change it later, open your account in the app and choose **Switch instance**.

## Notifications

In the app, open **Settings > Notifications** and turn on **iPhone notifications** to hear about finished work and questions that wait for you. Each notification is encrypted on your computer before it leaves it. It passes through avibe.bot to Apple's push service and is decrypted on your iPhone; avibe.bot cannot read it.

## If the list is empty

* **No computers at all.** The computer has not been added to this account yet. Do the step under [Before you start](#before-you-start), then tap **I have paired · Refresh**.
* **The computer shows as offline.** Start Avibe on that computer and check its internet connection, then refresh the list.
* **You signed in with a different email** than on the computer. Sign out in the app and sign in with the same one.

## What it is not

* It is not a standalone assistant. Your computer does the work.
* It does not copy your files to the phone or to avibe.bot. What you see is served by your computer through its secure tunnel.
