Treena vs Replit
A browser IDE vs. a phone-native one
Replit brought the cloud IDE to the browser and added a mobile companion app on top. Treena starts from the phone and builds the IDE around it.

Replit FAQ
Questions, answered
- Does Replit have an iOS app?
- Yes, Replit ships an iOS app for viewing projects, making light edits, and chatting with its AI agent. It's a companion to the browser-based IDE rather than a ground-up mobile workflow.
- Does Replit have an Android app?
- Yes, Replit also ships an Android app with similar viewing and light-editing capabilities to its iOS app.
- What's different about Treena's approach?
- Treena's editor, terminal, and agent controls are laid out for a phone screen from the start, on both iOS and Android, not adapted from a desktop layout. Plan mode and agent mode are built around short, on-the-go sessions.
- Can I use both?
- Sure. Replit is a solid full-stack cloud IDE for browser and desktop use. Treena is aimed at the moments you only have your phone: reviewing a PR, fixing a bug, or shipping a small change between other things.
