Matt Wolfe shows how to set up Codex Mobile, which lets you run Codex sessions on your phone by pairing it with your Mac. You can manage your wiki, monitor code execution, and respond to prompts from anywhere, making it a major workflow upgrade.
We got a feature out of OpenAI this week that I'm actually personally really excited about. They finally made it so you can use Codex from your phone. I've been using Codex myself more and more. If you watched my recent video about how I built my own wiki, all of that was done inside of Codex. So now I can actually manage that from my phone when I'm not actually sitting at my computer, which is pretty sweet. So if we go ahead and update our Codex here, we get the option to set up Codex Mobile. We'll go through the little setup process. I'm gonna allow devices to control this computer, scan the little QR barcode on my screen here. Now it's asking me to connect on my phone. We'll go ahead and do that. Now back on my computer here, let's make sure we keep this Mac awake so that when we are using Codex, it can still access it. And I'm gonna leave everything enabled, so we'll go ahead and click Done. And now in my app here, you can see it's connected to my Mac Studio. I can see all my second brain chat sessions that I already started inside of Codex. Obviously, if you're writing any sort of code with Codex as well, you can prompt it to start working on an app and then, you know, go watch TV in another room and then just kind of keep, you know, checking on the progress of the code. And if it's asking you any questions, you could respond right from your phone. So that to me is kind of a game changer.
