What Gemini can do with your iPhone
Hand Gemini a phone and it can run your accounts, answer your customers, test your app and clear your errands, on one iPhone or five at once.
Run all your social accounts from one Mac
Connect up to five iPhones, each signed in to several Instagram and TikTok accounts, and Gemini can work 20–30 accounts for you: warming up new ones, engaging in their niche, finding creators and researching what’s working.
Try:
Across all five phones, warm up our 12 new TikTok accounts, each in its own niche, then tell me which ones already have the right For You page.
Find 15 clean-beauty creators under 100k followers who posted this week, and draft a collab DM to each from @glowlab.
Watch the top 30 TikToks and YouTube Shorts for “budget meal prep” and turn the 5 strongest hooks into Reel scripts for @cheapeatsnyc.

Try:
Go through every brand account on these phones, answer the comments asking about price, sizing or shipping, and DM the product link to anyone who asked for it.

Test your iOS app like your users will, before they find the bugs
Gemini uses your app on real iPhones the way people do (signed in, interrupted, impatient) and shows you what stands between a download and a paying user: confusing onboarding, broken edge cases, App Review red flags and screens an AI agent can’t use.
Try:
Install our newest TestFlight build and go from first launch to the paywall as a new user. Count the taps and tell me where a real person would give up.
Install our top competitor from the App Store, go through its onboarding and paywall, and compare every step with ours.
Before I submit to App Review, check our app for account deletion, Restore Purchases on the paywall and a working privacy policy link.

Get one task done across several apps
Gemini moves between apps the way you do: it takes what it needs from one and finishes the job in another, from a single request.
Try:
Open my latest Hinge chat, work out what they’re into, find three date spots between us on Google Maps and suggest a time that’s free on my Calendar.
Grab the video and caption the client approved in our WhatsApp group and post it as an Instagram Reel.
Find the restaurant in my latest screenshot, check OpenTable for a table for 4 on Friday and send the booking to the group chat.

Order, shop and book in your apps
Gemini shops across the apps you’re already signed in to, comparing prices, using your saved addresses and past orders, and booking the best option.
Try:
Check Amazon, Walmart and Target for the 6 things on my shopping list, find the best price for each and add them to the cheapest cart.
Reorder my usual Chipotle bowl on DoorDash (or Uber Eats if it’s cheaper) and stop at checkout.
Rebuild last week’s Instacart order from Costco, swap anything that’s out of stock and schedule it for Saturday morning.

Organize and clean up your iPhone
Gemini can change the phone itself: your photos, Home Screen, Focus modes, notifications and settings.
Try:
Go through my photos, gather the screenshots, duplicates and blurry shots into a “Delete?” album and tell me how much space I’d free up.
Find every subscription in my App Store settings, flag the ones I haven’t opened this month and tell me what I’d save by cancelling.
Put Gmail, Google Maps, Calendar, Drive and Google Photos on page one, and move games and social into a folder on the last page.

Nothing to install. Nothing to hand over.
No Xcode. No paid Apple Developer account. No jailbreak
Nothing goes on your iPhone. Zeptap works over a USB cable and Bluetooth.
Your passcode never leaves your Mac
It’s stored in your Mac’s Keychain, and Gemini never sees it.
Your screen never touches Zeptap’s servers
No Zeptap account, no relay: what’s on screen goes only to Google’s Gemini, through OpenRouter on your own key, or directly through Gemini CLI.
You stay in charge
Watch every tap from your Mac, stop any time, and have Gemini check with you before it sends, posts or buys.
