Codex iOS Assistant Enables iPhone Control via Mac Using iMessage and Shortcuts
The Codex iOS Assistant is a new tool that allows users to control and inspect an iPhone from a Mac using iMessage and Shortcuts. Developed by Samin100, this project enables various commands such as reading visible text, managing alarms, and opening apps like Camera and Spotify. The system operates through a combination of iMessage commands and iOS Shortcuts, providing a seamless integration between Mac and iPhone. The setup requires macOS 14 or newer, Python 3.11+, and iCloud sync for Shortcuts. The project is designed to enhance user convenience by allowing remote control of iPhone functions from a Mac.
