Native iOS Skills
Calendar, Reminders, Contacts, Clipboard, HealthKit, translation, images, and explicit Web Search.
Product
A phone-first agent surface.
PhoneClaw treats the iPhone as the runtime for local inference, native Skills, permission checks, model downloads, memory budgeting, and Live interaction modes.
Local-first by default
Gemma 4 E2B / E4B via LiteRT and MiniCPM-V 4.6 run on-device for private everyday tasks.
Live and LiveLand
Voice, camera-aware LIVE mode, and Dynamic Island status for mobile tasks in motion.
Mobile runtime work
Memory budgeting, model switching, resumable downloads, cache cleanup, and history trimming.
Mac as an edge node
Pair a Mac over LAN to use Ollama or CLI models while the iPhone keeps the agent experience.
Framework
The agent stack is shaped by iOS limits.
Desktop agent frameworks assume long-running processes, generous memory, broad file access, and easy background execution. PhoneClaw starts from the opposite constraints.
Mobile commands
Text, voice, images, LIVE camera, widgets, Shortcuts, Control Center, and LiveLand entry points.
Skill-aware planning
File-driven Skills, scoped tool lists, argument extraction, clarification, and safer multi-turn task handling.
Native iOS tools
Calendar, Reminders, Contacts, Clipboard, HealthKit, Web Search, and device-local summaries behind permission gates.
On-device or LAN
LiteRT local models by default, with optional Mac Gateway for heavier models on a trusted local machine.
Boundaries
The privacy claim is concrete.
PhoneClaw keeps chat, images, and personal data on iPhone by default. Explicit user actions add network paths: Web Search, opening a URL, or Mac remote inference.
Stays on iPhone
Default inference, native Skill calls, Calendar, Reminders, Contacts, Clipboard, HealthKit summaries, images, and chat.
Leaves only when asked
Realtime Web Search and opening a public URL send the request to the search provider or target website.
Optional Mac inference
When paired, the request goes to your Mac on the LAN. Ollama stays there; CLI providers follow their own policies.
Mac Gateway
Keep the phone native. Move heavy inference to your Mac.
PhoneClaw Gateway turns a Mac on the same Wi-Fi into an optional local inference source. The iPhone still owns the chat UI, Skills, permission model, and task flow.
Deep dives
Technical proof for the main claims.
These pages are written for developers, search, and answer engines that need specific evidence instead of a product tagline.
