Guides
Get more out of every session.
Each guide starts from a real situation, names every button the way the app prints it, and ends with the small tricks that save the most time.
- 01Your first connection, with a key, in five minutesAdd a host, generate a key that never leaves the phone's hardware, and stop typing passwords.
- 02Build a keyboard for the way you workRows, pins, sticky modifiers, stack keys, combos and per-OS snippets — and how to save the result as a layout.
- 03Work with coding agents from your phoneSend screenshots and files, dictate a prompt, recover a lost line, and paste long text without breaking anything.
- 04Keep sessions alive, and come back in one tapChoose how long the app holds your sessions, let a dropped tab reopen itself with your command, and use the home carousel.
- 05Move files without leaving the terminalBrowse the server, queue uploads and downloads, edit a game data file and fix permissions — on the same connection.
- 06Play your game's web build on the phoneForward a port with -L and open it in your browser, then learn when -R and -D are the right tool.
- 07Gestures worth learning in the first weekThe handful of touches that make the terminal feel fast: Tab, scroll, select, zoom and switching tabs.
- 08Make it yours, then back it upPick a theme and a palette, choose the capsule or the strip, and keep your whole setup in one file.
- 09Optional: see your agents' states with HerdrIf your host runs Herdr, Mochitao shows which agents are working, waiting or done — and tells you when one needs you.
