Introduction to Remux
Remux is a new open-source native iOS client designed for interacting with remote tmux workspaces. It provides a mobile-first interface for managing tmux sessions, windows, and panes directly from an iPhone, built on the Ghostty terminal core.
Key Features for Mobile Development
The client allows users to attach to existing tmux sessions or start new ones, and to navigate between windows and panes with swipe gestures and live previews. It includes a shortcut palette for running saved commands, with starter sets for shell, Claude Code, and Codex, and supports custom commands.
Remux also enables file previews for code, images, PDFs, and HTML pages directly from terminal output, and allows long-pressing localhost URLs to open development servers with hot reload and WebSockets. Users can upload photos and files to the server, with image markup support.
Connectivity and Security
Remux connects directly to the server via SSH, without requiring a relay or an account. Passwords and private keys are stored in the iOS Keychain, and trusted host keys are remembered. Cursor control is managed by holding the space bar or long-pressing in the terminal.
Availability and Customization
Remux is currently available as a public beta through Apple's TestFlight program. Developers can also build the application from source, requiring Xcode with iOS 18 SDK support and XcodeGen. The client offers theme options including Ghostty default, Catppuccin Mocha, and Catppuccin Latte, with adjustable font sizes.
