GitHub Mobile Model Picker Now Available
GitHub has rolled out a model picker feature for the Copilot coding agent in its mobile app, enabling subscribers to select which AI model powers their coding sessions on-the-go.
Available Models
Users can choose from:
- Auto (optimizes for speed and performance based on availability)
- Anthropic Claude Opus 4.5 and Claude Opus 4.6
- Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.5
- OpenAI GPT-5.1-Codex-Max and GPT-5.2-Codex
Current Availability and Rollout
The feature is now generally available for Copilot Pro and Pro+ subscribers on both iOS and Android platforms. Support for Copilot Business and Enterprise customers is coming soon.
Key Benefits
This addition addresses a common mobile workflow gap: developers can now match model selection to their immediate needs without returning to desktop. Users seeking faster responses for quick tasks can select a lightweight model, while deeper work can leverage more capable alternatives like Claude Opus 4.6.
Developers should update to the latest production build of GitHub Mobile to access this feature.
