Use when a task needs a real iPhone — operating iOS apps that have no API (Apple Health, banking, IM apps), exporting on-phone data, tapping/typing/scrolling on the phone, or taking phone screenshots. Replays saved per-app flows from the iphone-use-flows registry in one call and offers to save new ones after multi-step tasks. Drives the iphone-use daemon through its custom XCTest device runner, HTTP agent API or MCP server.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# iphone-use — drive a real iPhone

The [iphone-use](https://github.com/leeguooooo/iphone-use) daemon drives a
physical iPhone through its own XCTest device runner. This runner replaced
WebDriverAgent in v0.14.0; it does not use iPhone Mirroring. The HTTP interface
is WebDriverAgent-compatible (its `/wda/...` routes). It never touches the Mac's screen or
cursor. Use the HTTP API below or the bundled MCP server (`phone_*` tools); the
loop is the same. Details live in the reference: `curl -s -H "$AUTH"
"$HOST/agent/reference"` serves the copy that matches the running daemon
(sections below are named by heading; also
[docs/agent-reference.md](https://github.com/leeguooooo/iphone-use/blob/main/docs/agent-reference.md)).

```bash
HOST="${IPHONE_USE_URL:-http://127.0.0.1:44321}"
AUTH="Authorization: Bearer $IPHONE_USE_TOKEN"   # daemon password or IPHONE_USE_AGENT_TOKEN
MUTATION="X-Phone-Control: 1"                      # required on every state-changing POST
OWNER="X-Phone-Owner: <your-session-name>"          # MCP sends this for you
curl -s -H "$AUTH" "$HOST/agent/status"             # probe first; on failure follow recovery below
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add leeguooooo/iphone-use/iphone-use@sha256:9adb736db342bc30

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.7e9c7bd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
