Feature request: allow Codex mobile to pair with a separate Codex/API organization than the active ChatGPT account
What variant of Codex are you using?
ChatGPT iOS app + Codex app/CLI on macOS
What feature would you like to see?
I use ChatGPT Plus on my personal account for normal ChatGPT conversations and history, but I use Codex for work through a company-provided API key / organization billing.
Currently, Codex mobile appears to be tied to the active ChatGPT account/workspace in the iOS app. This creates a workflow problem:
- If I stay logged into my personal ChatGPT account, I can access my normal chats, but I cannot see/control Codex sessions running on my Mac with my company Codex/API credentials.
- If I switch the iOS app to the work/Codex context, I lose access to my personal ChatGPT threads in the mobile app.
It would be useful if Codex mobile could be configured separately from the active ChatGPT account, for example:
- ChatGPT iOS account: personal Plus account
- Codex runtime/billing: selected organization, workspace, or API key
- Codex host on Mac: paired independently with that Codex credential
I am not necessarily asking to store raw API keys on iOS. A safer approach could be pairing the iOS app with a trusted Mac Codex host, where the host keeps the credentials and the mobile app only controls sessions authorized by that host.
This would support a common workflow where users have personal ChatGPT accounts but use company-provided Codex/API access for work.
