I really like the Mac OS feature to be able to control another computer’s codex sessions. I recently switched my controlling computer from a Macbook to a Surface and didn’t realize until after switching that this feature to control other computers only works on Mac OS/mobile. Really hope this can be implemented implemented so that Windows can control sessions as well. This was actually one of the features that made me cancel my $100 a month Claude subscription in favor of chatgpt/codex along with the new models stacking up to Fable. Their remote control is super flaky. The phone version and the Mac OS version work great for Codex but not having windows sucks I segment my network and run many agent endpoints so having good remote management features is a huge selling point. Also maybe come up with a better name “remote control” by claude is catchy even if the feature is lacking. ---

Hey [**hoejoman**](https://community.openai.com/u/hoejoman) & [**lijiachen**](https://community.openai.com/u/lijiachen), welcome to the forum! That's a valid request. I'll pass this feedback along to the product team so they can review the idea and decide whether it can be implemented on Windows. Avinash ---
