Phone Harness Controls Real Phones via CLI

21 09 2026

Phone Harness is a command‑line tool that lets you control iPhone and Android devices from macOS, Linux, or Windows. It captures the device screen via iPhone mirroring or adb, OCRs the UI with Vision or the accessibility tree, and simulates taps and typing. No jailbreak, no Xcode, and nothing installed on the phone.

It is worth trying if you need automated UI testing or agent‑driven phone interaction, but it cannot handle multi‑touch, camera, or Face ID flows. The user must pair the device each time, and the tool is best suited for single‑device use cases, not production‑level persistent automation.
