About this app

Your AI assistant lives on your gateway. OpenClaw Node gives it a body.

Pair your phone with a self-hosted OpenClaw gateway and your assistant gains direct access to your Android device; its camera, microphone, screen, location, notifications, and more. Your Claw can actually see what your camera sees, know where you are, read and act on your notifications, and display whatever it needs on your screen.

Ask your assistant to check what's on the shelf in front of you. Get a context-aware reminder triggered by your location. Let it read an incoming notification and draft a reply. Have it present a live dashboard or control panel right on your phone. Talk to it hands-free with continuous voice and spoken responses.

What you can do:
- Pair instantly with a setup code or connect manually to any reachable gateway
- Chat with streaming replies, image attachments, and full session history
- Use Talk Mode for natural voice conversations with ElevenLabs or system TTS
- Open a live Canvas surface your assistant controls — dashboards, tools, anything
- Grant device capabilities one by one: camera, photos, screen capture, location, notifications, contacts, calendar, SMS, and motion sensors

You choose what your assistant can access. Every permission is explicit, every connection is approved, and pairing credentials are stored securely on device. No cloud middleman, no account to create. Just your phone and your gateway.

Note: Requires a running OpenClaw gateway on macOS, Linux, or Windows (WSL2). The Android app is a companion node, not a standalone gateway. Some features require the app to be in the foreground and depend on device capabilities and granted permissions.

Ratings and reviews

Looks very promising, if it didn't take a geek to get running, even then with help from another modern up to date AI. Haven't gotten it running yet as its silly difficut

should not have been released without more testing, spent hours debugging only to circle back to the source: wss and https addresses are mixed up.

promising but still very buggy - feels like an alpha version. connection device pairing is flaky and if it fails the app is silently stuck with invalid token, you need to delete the cache outside the app. enable assistant button does nothing. sessions list shows inconsistently, canvas seems to work... sometimes?
