Frequently Asked Questions
Claude Dispatch is a feature within the Claude Cowork desktop app that allows you to remote control your Mac from a mobile device. To set it up, you must install the Claude Cowork app on your Mac (the host) and the Claude app on your iPhone or iPad (the remote). Once installed, you enable "Dispatch" in the desktop settings to generate a unique connection code, which you then enter into the mobile app to create a secure one-to-one pairing.
In early research previews, the success rate for Dispatch is approximately 50%, often due to technical or environmental hurdles. For the agent to work, your Mac must be awake and reachable; if the computer goes to sleep, the connection is lost. Additionally, because the AI "sees" via screenshots, a cluttered desktop with too many open windows can overwhelm the agent. Keeping your workspace tidy and adjusting energy settings to "Prevent automatic sleeping" can significantly improve performance.
Dispatch operates within a "permissioned sandbox" to prevent unauthorized or harmful actions. For high-stakes tasks like deleting files or opening new apps, the system requires manual pre-approval. Users must proactively grant "Accessibility," "Full Disk Access," and "Screen Recording" permissions in the Mac’s System Settings while physically at the computer. Furthermore, the AI is guided by "Constitutional AI" principles, meaning it is programmed to be cautious and will often ask for clarification rather than risk making a mistake.
The Claude Code Router is an open-source proxy that acts as a traffic controller for AI requests. Instead of sending every simple query to an expensive, high-tier model like Claude Opus, the router analyzes the task and directs it to a more appropriate resource. It can route basic tasks to cheaper models like Gemini Flash or local models via Ollama, while reserving complex reasoning for top-tier models. This strategy can reduce AI API bills by 40% to 85% and provides resilience if one provider's servers go down.
The current landscape is dominated by Claude Opus, GPT-5.4, and Gemini 3.1 Pro, each with specific strengths. Claude is considered the "Specialist," excelling at production code and deep reasoning. GPT-5.4 is the "Swiss Army Knife," best suited for web automation and navigating operating systems due to its superior "Computer Use" benchmarks. Gemini 3.1 Pro is the "Value Leader," offering a massive 2-million-token context window that makes it the most efficient choice for analyzing giant documents or long files.

Seriously I haven’t even explored this app fully yet but from using it the last few days I am so impressed... BeFreed is on a different level from any other learning app I have used. This makes it ultra engaging and can actually improve your concentration which is great for all the doom scrollers!
@ladyInfinity
I bought BeFreed exactly 23 days ago, and I have used it every single day since. It has completely embedded itself into my daily workflow and learning habit.
@jayallen
The truth is, the app has exceeded all my expectations. I can ask it to generate audio on any topic, whatever it may be, and the result is impressive. My professional field is a specialization in psychotherapy and it is multidisciplinary; however, the answers are very accurate.
@Raguipa
What I appreciate most is how much it's reduced my scrolling – I'm spending less time searching and more time absorbing information. The combination of full audiobooks, podcasts, the learning plans are brilliant.
@colonyofcreatorsNGO
I have been a PhotoReading Accelerated Learning Instructor for the past 24 years... books and reading and learning are my thing, and BeFreed has done a great job in providing an innovative approach to disseminating and delivering information in an easy to consume way.
@BeFreed user
It is not just a book summary app, I have used the 'fun reading' option and it's a much better summary and way to grasp ideas the traditional way, that alone is worth this deal.
@austinakon
I love this app. Used it for several days and I cannot stop listening. Such a great way to start.
@jcrules328
I really like the program; I have already tested it for around one month, and I feel that it's an amazing gem. It works so well because I can use BeFreed to create my own topics, and the voice is so good with unlimited choice of narrations.

@DanielCZ
I love the fact that I can get useful, condensed, information and ideas in a 8 - 15 minute podcast style audio. I'm not a general fan of podcasts because of all the fluff, but this cuts through all that.
@BeFreed user
I am finishing up my doctorate, and have to read a lot of unfamiliar material... With BeFreed, you simply enter a prompt, and the app finds source material for you and generates an audio podcast. I find the process in BeFreed to be more streamlined than NotebookLM.
@Brad
I often search YouTube for something to listen to whilst making breakfast, when I'm out walking, commuting, etc, and BeFreed has provided an even more targeted approach, without the adverts and the fluff!
@BeFreed user
The absolute best part about this platform is its versatility. There is literally no subject that is off-topic. It handles whatever you throw at it... It is rare to find an learning tool with zero limitations that actually delivers on its promises.
@jayallen
BeFreed is fantastic. The user-friendly design means I spend less time navigating and more time learning. The mix of audiobooks, podcasts, and learning plans is a genius combo that has completely changed my daily routine.
@BeFreed user
At the start I needed a while to understand how to create podcasts in italian language and boom! It is so great! I can ask to explain every argument and it does so well and so smartly!
@matteo77
BeFreed has become my daily app for audio books tools... What I like the most is the way you put your text and come with an audio that you can listen on the go.
