Launch Cloud Agents
Choose a repository and model, describe a task, and start a Kilo Cloud Agent from a phone or tablet without opening a laptop.
Kilo Mobile
Freemium
Kilo Mobile extends Kilo’s AI coding workflow to iPhone, iPad, and Android. It lets developers launch cloud coding sessions, control supported CLI and VS Code sessions, and review GitHub pull requests from a mobile device.
What is Kilo Mobile?
Kilo Mobile is a mobile companion for Kilo’s AI coding platform for iPhone, iPad, and Android. It helps developers continue coding-agent work away from a computer by launching Cloud Agents, controlling supported Kilo CLI and VS Code sessions, and reviewing GitHub pull requests.
The app supports an end-to-end remote workflow: choose a repository and model, start a task, monitor progress, respond when the agent needs input, inspect changes, and review the resulting pull request. It also provides notifications, mobile input options, and visibility into activity across Kilo’s cloud and connected desktop surfaces.
What can Kilo Mobile do?
Monitor and direct running work
Follow session progress, view cost and context pressure, queue follow-up instructions, and respond when an agent requests input.
Control connected desktop sessions
Pair with supported Kilo CLI or VS Code sessions running on a computer to send instructions, inspect diffs, and use slash commands on a connected CLI instance.
Review GitHub pull requests
Open pull requests, inspect checks and syntax-highlighted diffs, leave line comments, submit reviews, reply in threads, and merge from the app.
Use mobile-first input and alerts
Receive configurable notifications for input requests, milestones, and low balance; dictate prompts, attach files, or share text, links, and files into Kilo.
Use Cases
“Continue an interrupted coding task”
Leave a desk-based workflow without abandoning a running CLI or VS Code session. Use the phone to provide the next instruction or check the current diff while away.
“Start remote repository work”
Launch a Cloud Agent from a mobile device for tasks such as codebase exploration, debugging, planning, or refactoring when a local development machine is not available.
“Handle agent requests promptly”
Use push notifications and the Active now tray to notice when an agent needs a decision, additional context, or another prompt instead of waiting until returning to a computer.
“Review changes before merging”
Inspect a GitHub pull request, examine checks and diffs, discuss individual lines, submit a review, and merge completed work from a phone or iPad.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which devices support Kilo Mobile?
Kilo Mobile is presented for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. The product page specifically describes an iPad layout with side-by-side diffs.
Can Kilo Mobile start coding work without a local computer?
Yes. The app can launch a Kilo Cloud Agent after you choose a repository and model and describe the task. Cloud Agents run in isolated cloud environments, so the task does not require a local machine.
Can it control a Kilo session running on my computer?
Yes. Kilo Mobile can connect to supported Kilo CLI and VS Code sessions running on a computer. You can send instructions and review diffs; some other surfaces remain available in read-only mode.
What can I do with a pull request in the app?
For GitHub pull requests, the app supports viewing checks, inspecting syntax-highlighted diffs, leaving line comments, submitting reviews, replying in threads, and merging.
How is Kilo Mobile usage priced?
Kilo separates platform access, AI inference, and cloud compute. The pricing information lists a free individual platform tier; inference and cloud compute may incur separate usage costs depending on the selected options. Cloud compute is billed separately from model inference.
