OpenAI introduced its AI coding assistant, Codex, into the ChatGPT mobile application for both iOS and Android platforms in May 2026. This integration enables developers to remotely manage coding tasks using smartphones, including reviewing outputs, approving commands, switching AI models, and monitoring real-time updates such as screenshots, terminal outputs, and test results. The system securely keeps files and credentials on the connected host machine while offering seamless synchronisation. OpenAI also expanded support with remote SSH connectivity and enterprise-level features like programmatic access tokens and HIPAA-compliant local support for healthcare-related workspaces.
