Introducing a free coding agent that runs locally on your iPhone - FreeMilk
- Free daily allowance of coding models: DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, GPT 6 Luna, and GLM 5.3 Flash (will add more)
- Reads and writes files on-device with local git support
- GitHub integration to clone repos, check CI/CD logs and more.
- Connect to MCP servers straight from your iPhone, your credentials and keys stay on-device.
- Start multiple on-device agents at once in the background that can run for minutes or even hours. No remote control or cloud sandboxes needed.
- Built in on-device web browser that agent can take control when in foreground (still work-in-progress)
- Connect with your personal data on iPhone, such as Photos, Calendar, Reminders, and more.
My cofounder thinks I’ve been building some pretty cool things but I’m not talking about it enough, especially here 👉👈
“The philosophy has always been… to be the best, not the first.” — Tim Cook
@milq_ai wasn’t the first app that built mobile apps on the App Store, won’t be the first on any other newly announced stores, and won’t be the first to adopt a new business model. But IMO, with whatever limited capabilities it has had, it’s always been the best.
If you’re starting out as a founder, your biggest competitors aren’t the ones you might be thinking of. They might be the ones who got a ton of VC funding initially in the AI hype, discovered their product doesn’t work, and are now looking for pivots or new feature ideas
Another service launched that’s very similar to @sqim_app… so glad this trick has really taken off :)
There are thousands of builds already uploaded on Sqim and being used by devs every day!
Introducing speedflight.dev - testflight built for agents to easily share iOS apps with you & your team.
little known trick, you can host signed builds and install them from safari if you cut an adhoc distribution build with your device registered in your ASC account. [1]
i also added screenshots, past builds, what's new & more - it's easy to confuse what you're testing while working on 100 things
→ its totally free
→ no sign up required
→ works with gh actions
that last one is neat - work in any linux sandbox or devbox, build runs in CI on mac runners, agent sends you the link or review in PRs 🤝 ios finally gets preview links
just tell your agent "setup speedflight.dev"

[1] By default you hit download and iOS asks to install it via system message. you get no confirmation when its complete, pretty shitty ux.
i wanted some niceties like download progress / opening the app from safari (ios doesnt tell you when its done) so I watch the packets leaving the server to estimate download progress & stream this back to the site over websockets.
💯
If you’re not reading the code, whether explicitly or through agentic inquiry, one or more of these is true:
○ You’re a beginner
○ Software is throwaway
○ You’re prototyping
○ You have no users / revenue
○ You’re taking on debt & risk
○ Your problems are basic
And btw. All of this is fine. But the reality is that models are still not at the “full autonomy” stage yet.
They make rookie mistakes, they go down bad architectural paths. I just had the best model in the world add a nonsensical 700ms delay to “settle” something and it told me “you’re right, I was cargo-culting” 🤨
I am on the camp that this need will diminish more and more. Most code is indeed going to be assembly-like. But we also have the global internet and software infrastructure riding on these models and narrative, and we have to respect that.
Airbnb should start uber type service. An option given to host to pick up and drop off their guests before check in and after check out
How is there still not a way to easily swipe and cycle through different live activities on Dynamic Island
Sqim x Coca — better together
Sometimes tools just happen to work better together. Same goes for Sqim & Coca🥛🌱 Coca keeps your Mac and apps awake, including closed lid mode. With Sqim you deploy from your Mac to your iPhone, even while being out of house! sqim.dev & coca.cammalleri.dev/
