About

iphone-use gives an AI agent a real iPhone: the screen as text, tap, type and scroll over WebDriverAgent, with an honest answer for every action (applied, not sent, or unknown). Payment apps that block screenshots come back as a wireframe. A task done once becomes a flow that replays with no model. HTTP API, a 21-tool MCP server for Claude Code, and remote control from a browser or iOS app. Open source, MIT.

AI Summary

iphone-use enables AI agents to interact with a real iPhone, allowing them to perform actions on apps without APIs through WebDriverAgent. It features an HTTP API, a 21-tool MCP server for Claude Code, and is open source under the MIT license.

Scored deterministically. Only candidates that fire a story trigger are sent to a model, so this one has no written angle.

ThinLittle evidence and no strong angle. Nothing to build on yet.

A source that found nothing is a measurement. A source that has not run is a gap. Neither means the launch lacks the thing.
