A floating chat bubble that lets Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode use your Android phone. Runs inside the app on your own subscription or free models. No adb, no PC, no root.
A floating chat bubble that lets Claude Code (or Codex) use your Android phone.
Type a request into the bubble ("reply to Sam that I'm running late", "add a Nintendo Switch 2 to my Amazon cart") and Buddy reads the screen, taps, types and scrolls to get it done. It asks for your approval before anything that sends, posts, buys or deletes.
Buddy runs on your own subscription: Claude Code with your Claude plan, or OpenAI's Codex CLI with your ChatGPT plan, both running in Termux on the phone. The app has no API key, no server and no account of its own.
Status: 1.0, early. It works well day to day but still has rough edges. Tested on a OnePlus 12 (OxygenOS, Android 16); other Android 11+ phones should work, but may need battery settings adjusted.
Buddy is an independent project. It is not made by or affiliated with Anthropic or OpenAI.
Most "AI controls my phone" projects drive the phone over adb, which needs a computer or Wireless debugging that drops all the time. Buddy doesn't use adb at all:
- It's a normal Android app with an accessibility service, the same kind of permission screen readers use. - No adb, no Wireless debugging, no PC, no root. - Works without Wi-Fi and comes back on its own after a reboot.
- The accessibility service draws the bubble and runs a small local MCP server with the phone tools: readscreen, tap, longpress, typetext, scroll, swipe, press, openapp, listapps, openurl, screenshot, wait, waitforinstall, confirm and notify. - Your message goes to the agent in Termux, which uses those tools and streams its progress back to the app. - The same MC
