OpenClaw burst onto the scene at the bottom end of last year with the promise of a total AI assistant that didn’t simply respond to prompts but could control anything plugged into it. The buzz has since died down, but one blind spot remains: OpenClaw could run on several platforms, but not Android, at least until now.
The OpenClaw Foundation launched the official OpenClaw app late in June, allowing users to access and control their personal OpenClaw gateways through their phones. It can also use the phone’s various features, including the cameras and notifications, if needed.
