Let Your Agent Use Your iPhone

A free setup guide to Poki by Joseph Zhou, the open-source tool that lets Claude Code read the screen, tap, type and open apps on an iPhone, without a jailbreak. Install it on your Mac, connect Claude Code with the per-task approval gate on, practise on the iOS Simulator with six prompts, then move to a spare iPhone. With safety rules, honest limits and fixes for the usual problems.
