MATLAB Mobile

Connect to MATLAB remotely from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

Connect to Your Computer

If you already have MATLAB installed, download the MATLAB Mobile app to your iOS device and install MATLAB Connector on your computer. You then can use MATLAB wherever you have network access to the computer with your MATLAB installation. Connecting to your computer enables you to access your own scripts, files, and toolboxes. Figures you created on your desktop will also be available.
