WhyDidItClose for iPhone
The right iPhone product is a companion, not a fake system monitor.
iPhone cannot inspect third-party app terminations the way macOS can. A serious product has to state that clearly. The mobile lane is for review, handoff, and incident portability.
Companion use cases
| Use case | What the iPhone app does |
|---|---|
| Mobile review | Open imported incident packs and scan cause/confidence quickly |
| Team handoff | Share a readable incident brief while away from the Mac |
| Escalation prep | Review recommendation, evidence summary, and action text before sending |
| Executive visibility | Show trend snapshots without exposing raw logs |
What ships on iPhone first
- Import incident JSON exported from the Mac app.
- Browse incidents by app, cause, and confidence.
- Open a detail view with explanation and next action.
- Keep the security story intact: no fake background monitoring claims.
What does not ship on iPhone
- System-wide monitoring of other iPhone apps
- Full macOS capture parity
- Hidden cloud sync without explicit operator action
Why this is the correct product direction
The companion lane extends usefulness without weakening trust. It keeps platform claims honest and creates a mobile review surface that support, QA, and leadership can actually use.
