On iPhone, add the app to your home screen first and pair from the installed app. It does not share saved data with Safari.
- On the computer, run
remotxai pairand leave it open. - In a second terminal on the computer, run
remotxai pair setup. It prints a QR code and two links. - On the phone, open app.remotxai.com and choose Scan pairing QR. Point the camera at the QR code.
- No camera? Choose Can’t scan? Paste the pairing link instead and paste the first link.
- The phone shows a 10-character Verification code, such as
8K4ZN-W2PXE. Type it at thepair ▸prompt in the first terminal. You have 3 minutes. - Answer the prompts in the terminal, one at a time. First the scope:
afor all sessions, orlfor the session list only. Thenyto confirm, then a role, then an optional name for the phone.
