A cockpit, not a window.
Günther reads Claude Code's output and renders it into a real mobile interface — plans, tool approvals, thinking steps, file diffs, and progress tracking. A command center for your AI coding agent.
Features
Everything Günther can do.
Chat and Claude interaction
You approve every action.
Claude Code asks before running shell commands, editing files, or writing new ones. Günther renders each request with a preview, and you approve or deny. MCP tools display with server name badges. Auto-bash mode available per connection.
See how Claude thinks.
Günther renders Claude's thinking blocks inline — collapsible so they don't clutter the conversation, but there when you want to understand why it made a choice.
Inline diffs and progressive disclosure.
File edits render as color-coded diffs right in the conversation. Long outputs collapse automatically — expand them when you need the details.
Jobs panel.
Track everything Claude is doing in real time. See active file edits, shell commands, and subagent tasks — which are blocking and which are running in the background.
Plan mode and questions.
Claude can enter plan mode to design an approach before acting. When it has questions, they appear as tappable options — single or multi-select.
Attach files from your device.
Drop photos, screenshots, or text files into the conversation. Images are compressed and uploaded to the server automatically. Claude sees them instantly.
Slash commands.
Quick access to /compact, /model, /clear, /review, and more from a tappable menu. Automatically discovers custom skills from your project's .claude/skills/ directory. Switch models, manage context, and tune behavior without leaving the chat.
Context window tracking.
Live percentage display in the input bar. Auto-compact kicks in before you hit the limit — configurable threshold, or trigger it manually.
Sessions and connections
Pick up where you left off.
Resume previous Claude Code conversations, start new ones, or switch between active sessions. Messages cache locally for instant loading.
Project shortcuts.
Save working directories as named projects on the dashboard. One tap to jump back in. Your most recent project pre-warms the session so it's ready instantly.
Passwordless in one tap.
Generate Ed25519 key pairs on-device and install them on your servers without touching a terminal. Keys stored in iOS Keychain. Post-quantum key exchange (ML-KEM) for future-proof security.
Model selection.
Pick your Claude model from a list discovered from the CLI, or type a custom model ID. Persisted per connection so each server can use a different model.
Background lifecycle.
Active streams keep running when you switch apps. Reconnect-on-wake detection and a connection-lost banner with one-tap reconnect.
iCloud sync.
Opt-in iCloud Key-Value Store sync keeps your settings consistent across devices. Passwords, SSH private keys, and host fingerprints are never synced — only preferences.
Server tools
A full terminal in your pocket.
Full terminal emulator with PTY support — arrow keys, tab completion, 256-color ANSI output. When you just need to run something, you run it.
Smart Terminal.
A threaded terminal where each command starts its own session card. Tap into a session, continue typing, back out to the feed. Search across sessions, filter by errors, sort by newest or oldest.
Your server, your commands, one tap.
A fully customizable dashboard where every card — from system stats to git commands to Docker operations — is a command you can add, remove, edit, and reorder. 90+ templates across 16 categories, or create your own.
Browse your server's filesystem.
Navigate directories and preview files with syntax highlighting from a slide-out drawer. Sort by name, date, or size. Image preview for PNGs and JPGs. Upload files from your device to the server.
Command templates
90+ built-in presets across 16 categories. Pick from the gallery or write your own. Each template becomes a dashboard card you can run with one tap.
System Stats
CPU Usage, Memory, Disk Usage, GPU Stats, Uptime, Hostname. Auto-installed on first connect with real-time polling and specialized progress bar rendering.
Git
Git Status, Git Log, Git Pull, Git Diff, Git Branch. See your repo state or pull changes without switching to the terminal.

Designed for iPhone and iPad
Live Activities and Dynamic Island.
See Claude's progress without opening the app. The Dynamic Island shows the current tool, elapsed time, and context usage. Lights up when Claude needs your approval.
Push notifications for approvals.
Step away and let Claude work. When it needs your approval, you get a push notification. Tap it to jump straight to the approval dialog.
Light and dark themes.
Choose between Frost (light), Günther (dark), or follow your system setting. Designed to look good at 2 AM and in direct sunlight.
Typing speed control.
Configurable streaming animation speed — Fast, Normal, Smooth, Slow, or Typewriter. Per-connection, so you can tune it to your preference.
Biometric lock.
Lock the app behind Face ID or Touch ID. Verifies biometrics before enabling, re-locks when you background the app. Your server credentials stay private.
Keep screen awake.
Wakelock toggle prevents your device from sleeping during active chat sessions. No more missed tool approvals because the screen dimmed.
Tips and shortcuts
Long-press the mode chips.
Long-press Think to switch models. Long-press Auto to configure which tools auto-approve. Long-press Effort to pick response depth.
Long-press the context chip.
The context percentage in the input bar is tappable — long-press it to trigger /compact and free up context window space.
Drag the input bar.
Grab the small handle above the text field and drag up or down. Three height states: compact (one line), normal, and tall (up to 15 lines).
Swipe between projects.
Drag from the right edge of the chat screen to jump to your next saved project. Swipe from the left edge for iOS back.
Pinch to zoom the terminal.
