Leave the laptop behind
The agent runs on Terminalbox infrastructure, so closing your laptop or browser does not end the shell.
▍ Claude Code on iPad
Claude Code, from your iPad.
Run Claude Code inside a persistent Linux terminal, then reach the same shell from Safari. Start on a laptop, close it, and reconnect from your iPad without moving the work.
- No local iPad install
- Persistent tmux session
- Same files on every device

What changes
The terminal becomes a place you return to.
Resume the same session
Reconnect to the existing tmux session instead of rebuilding context in a fresh terminal.
Keep a full Linux workspace
Use Git, package managers, background processes, and the command-line tools your project expects.
How it works
From sign-in to a persistent session.
- 01
Choose a Terminalbox plan
Base includes one hosted terminal with 2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM, and 50 GB of persistent storage.
- 02
Create a Claude Code session
Pick the Claude Code template and complete the provider sign-in shown in the terminal.
- 03
Open Terminalbox in Safari
Sign in with the same email and reopen the running session from your iPad or another browser.
Before you start
Questions worth answering.
Does Claude Code run directly on the iPad?
No. Claude Code runs inside your hosted Terminalbox Linux environment. The iPad connects to that environment through the browser terminal.
Can I close Safari while Claude Code is working?
Yes. Closing the tab detaches your browser; the container and tmux session continue running until you end the session.
Is a Claude subscription included?
No. Terminalbox provides the hosted terminal. You bring a compatible Anthropic account, and Anthropic usage limits still apply.
Can I use a keyboard with the iPad?
Yes. A hardware keyboard gives the closest experience to a desktop terminal, though the browser terminal also works with the on-screen keyboard.
Persistent by default
Start here. Pick it up anywhere.
Plans start at €6 per month for one hosted coding-agent terminal.
