ChatGPT — June 25, 2026

June 25, 2026

This release brings the general availability of Codex Remote to all ChatGPT plans, allowing mobile device control of Mac and Windows development hosts, with enhanced secure QR pairing. Additionally, a new DigitalOcean Droplet Workspace plugin simplifies the provisioning and connection of remote development environments. These updates empower developers with more flexible, secure, and integrated tools for their coding workflows, accessible directly from the ChatGPT mobile app. Users should update both the ChatGPT mobile app and the Codex app for optimal functionality.

Added

Codex Remote is now generally available on all ChatGPT plans. From the ChatGPT mobile app, users can start or continue work on a connected Mac or Windows host, review progress, and approve actions from their phone. Remote Control now uses authenticated one-to-one QR pairing between each supported mobile device and each host. Connections used since June 8 remain paired; older inactive connections need to pair again. Signing out turns off Remote Control without removing existing pairings. The new DigitalOcean Droplet Workspace plugin lets Codex provision a DigitalOcean Droplet, configure SSH access, and connect it to the Codex app as a remote workspace. Users should update the ChatGPT mobile app and Codex app to the latest versions before connecting. Learn more about using Codex with a ChatGPT plan.
