Coding from your phone
by•
Hey, I was wondering how many of you are coding from the phone - it's easier to do it with AI coding agents now, so I'm wondering how often developers are doing it.
Personally, I do some coding tasks daily from my phone and I'm curious how others are doing it?
A - daily
B - weekly
C - maybe a few times a month
D - never
Comment below, let's see the results.

I honestly do not trust the agents enough to not see what they are doing, given that they hallucinate often and the need to correct output or plans I need to be sat there watching and its easier to see on a bigger screen
C for me, mostly watching terminals when I'm away from my desk :)

@daniel_dorne A custom built mobile app using Claude Code. :)
Yeah, a few times a week actually. I prompt directly from Claude chat to update a few projects. I also have customers who have never deployed from anything other than their phone (a chat-first vibe-coding approach)
I built this http://app.stated.in on my phone, intentionally, no laptop or desktop used at any point.
Launching tomorrow. Curious what you think of something like this.

@daniel_dorne the n at last is not joined in the url it has to be app. Stated. in, please type manually in the browser and it will open, the problem was product hunt did not allow the full url.

@avdheshkumbar noted, works now - not sure what it's for though?
Mostly B for me. The shift that made it practical was agents that run autonomously - I can kick off a task, close the laptop, and check in from my phone rather than trying to write code on a small screen. Phone as a monitoring and steering interface rather than an input device.
the question is kinda wrong imo. youre not "coding from your phone" youre managing agents from your phone. totally different skill. i send a message describing what i want, the agent does the work, i check back later. thats not coding thats project management with extra steps lol
