Nephele Aura for Mobile
Nephele Aura is the mobile companion app for the desktop workstation. It doesn't simply mirror the desktop features onto your phone—instead, it fills in the gaps for those moments away from your computer: browsing your asset library for inspiration while lying down, tossing in something you just snapped on the go, having a quick chat with the assistant, or catching updates from the artists you follow.
What You Can Do on Your Phone
| Tab | What It Does |
|---|---|
| Library | Browse the full set of assets in your desktop Eagle library—filter by folder / tag / star rating and view full-size images; you can also import photos you've taken or pictures from your camera roll into the desktop library |
| Feed | "Following" shows new work from the artists you subscribe to; "Discover" lets you browse Pixiv's daily / weekly / monthly rankings and featured collections; you can search for, subscribe to, and unsubscribe from artists right on your phone, and save the work you like into your desktop library |
| Assistant | Chat with Nephele (see the two modes below) |
| Profile | Account, subscriptions, and settings |
The Assistant's Two Modes
- Cloud Chat—available anytime, no computer required. It can search the web, answer questions, and help you find creative directions. It runs on cloud-based tools
- MAX Mode—requires your desktop client to be online. In this mode your phone drives the full Cloud MAX setup on the desktop, able to search your local Eagle library and call desktop tools (for operations like
run_python, the desktop will prompt you for confirmation)
In short: pure chat connects directly to the cloud, but anything that touches your local stuff needs the desktop online to relay it.
How to Pair
Aura and the desktop share the same account. There are two ways to sign in:
- QR pairing: the desktop generates a QR code (you need to be signed in with your email on the desktop first), and your phone scans it from the scan page
- Email sign-in: sign in directly on your phone with your email and a verification code
Once paired, your phone and desktop connect through a relay. Keep in mind:
提示
Browsing the library, importing from the feed, and MAX Mode all require the desktop client to be online—this data and these capabilities live on your computer, and the phone accesses them remotely. Pure cloud chat, however, does not require the desktop to be online.
Faster on the Same WiFi
If your phone and desktop are on the same local network, the desktop tells the phone its LAN address, and thumbnails and full-size images travel directly over the LAN—much faster than going around through the relay. When you're not on the same network, it automatically falls back to the relay.
How to Get It
Aura is rolling out platform by platform: Android offers a native client, while iOS / HarmonyOS are accessed through the web version. The exact download and installation methods are governed by the official website and in-app announcements.
技巧
Get the app, sign in with the same email, keep the desktop online, and you're ready to go.
