CC Blackbox is the iPhone companion to the CC Blackbox desktop app for Mac. Watch and steer the AI coding sessions already running in your local IDE, from anywhere.
See every live session at a glance and know which ones need you. Read the conversation as it happens, including what the assistant says between tool calls, with full tool detail and edit diffs a tap away. Send the next prompt by typing or dictation, answer permission requests, interrupt a turn, or stop a session outright. A built-in status strip shows the model and context usage for every session you watch.
Pair with your Mac by scanning a QR code. Pair up to five Macs and watch them all from one phone. Push notifications reach you when a session is waiting on you, even with the phone locked.
Everything is end-to-end encrypted between your phone and your Mac. The relay that connects them sees only encrypted bytes; your sessions, prompts, and code never leave your machines readable.
Requires the free CC Blackbox app on your Mac, a personal IDE made specifically to work with Claude Code. No account, no sign-up. A built-in demo mode lets you explore the app before pairing.
Ratings & Reviews
Fixes for busy sessions and flaky connections. A chat now opens with every prompt in place, including the newest ones. A session name on the list updates the moment you send a new prompt or rename the session on the Mac. When the Mac sleeps or the connection drops, the app says Disconnected instead of looking connected, and it reconnects on its own when you return to the app or pull to refresh. Works best with CC Blackbox 4.8.1 or newer on the Mac.
