I gave Claude encrypted hands and eyes on a real iPhone. It taps, types and debugs a live app over 5G.

Metro Remote is the secure infrastructure layer between AI and your devices. It works across the entire developer lifecycle, so you (or your AI) can run, debug and ship a real iPhone app from anywhere, even when you are on 5G.

I wanted to see if Claude could actually use a real device, not a simulator, not screenshots. So I built a way to give it encrypted hands and eyes on a real iPhone: it taps, types, swipes, reads the screen and debugs a live app.

It can run up to 100 actions in 30 seconds, with a real feedback loop so the AI knows exactly what is happening on screen at each step. Every connection between the AI and your device is encrypted in transit and isolated per customer.

The part I am proudest of: you can debug without changing a single line of code (no test IDs, no SDK), which is part of what we have patented. We are patent pending in the UK, with US and international filings to follow within the 12-month priority window.

We have signed major partnerships and just opened founder pricing. It is holding ~98% reliability, tested across more than 200 apps. If anyone is willing to test in the short time, we are launching next month, I would really love feedback from this great community of builders.

Limited Founder access is open, or you can join the free waitlist. Hoping to get 250+ on waitlist. Est. launch, July 2026. metroremote.dev

Happy to chat all things AI. Feel free to DM me too. A video attached shows the speed of AI debugging on an Ipad.

Thanks everyone! Please be kind!
