Desktop ComfyUI was unusable on phones, so he built a free open-source mobile UI

Frustrated with using desktop ComfyUI on a phone (stuttery panning, long-press opening the right-click menu, pinch-zooming into tiny number fields), the author built ComfyUI Mobile Pocket, a free, open-source custom node that adds two mobile pages:
- /pocket/: a proper phone-app experience with gallery, live queue, and a Generate screen that turns any saved workflow into a simple form
- /pocket/canvas: the real ComfyUI node editor with a touch layer — custom nodes and widgets all work; panning on a Samsung A54 went from 16 fps to 70
Install: clone into customnodes, start ComfyUI with --listen, and open http://<your-pc-ip>:8188/pocket/ on your phone. No extra dependencies. Only tested on Android so far; iPhone bug reports welcome.
