Billing questions
Holds, parking, devices and networks.
How does a session hold work?
When a phone starts, its longest possible session is held from your balance (15 minutes = $0.15 by default). When it parks, you pay for the seconds it was ready. The rest returns to your balance.
If your balance cannot cover the hold, the start fails with insufficient_credits and changes nothing.
When does my phone park automatically?
A phone parks itself after 5 idle minutes, and after 15 minutes of running unless you ask for up to 3 hours. Set idle_timeout or max_duration when creating or starting it.
Which devices can my agent use?
Cloud Android phones, iPhone and iPad, and real Android devices, all through the same API and MCP calls. Each is billed by the second at its own price; see the table above.
Can a phone have a residential or mobile IP?
Yes. Create it with network: "residential" ($8 per GB) or network: "mobile" ($15 per GB) and a city such as Berlin. The IP stays with the phone, and its GPS, timezone and locale match the city. Your own proxy works too.
What can my agent do on a phone?
Install your app, read the screen as text or a screenshot, tap, type and swipe in batches, and park the phone with its apps, data and logins kept. Cloud Android, iPhone and iPad, and real Android devices all take the same calls.
