## What is DeskOS?

DeskOS brings a desktop workspace to your phone, tablet or connected display, with movable windows and built-in tools.

Connect a compatible external display over USB-C, HDMI or wireless screen mirroring. Open multiple DeskOS tools side by side, resize windows, minimize them to the Dock and find tools with desktop search. On a tablet, the desktop opens directly in portrait or landscape. On a phone, use the portrait trackpad and previews, or choose Desktop mode.

FILES AND DOCUMENTS
• Browse DeskOS documents and folders you choose to link
• Preview photos, videos, audio, PDF and supported Office files
• Edit UTF-8 text and code with undo, redo and indentation
• Annotate PDFs with text and signatures, print, and save a separate copy
• Extract supported ZIP and RAR archives into a new folder
• Copy selected Gallery items into folders and save compatible media to Photos

EDITLY PRO
• Arrange video, audio, images, text and adjustment layers on a multitrack timeline
• Keep video and audio linked while moving and trimming
• Adjust position, scale, motion, color, volume and audio fades
• Add transition presets and editable captions
• Save projects that reference source media and export MP4 videos

BROWSER AND WEBSITE SHORTCUTS
• Use multiple persistent WebKit windows and tabs
• Reorder, detach, merge and close tabs
• Start with Google search, add bookmarks and save downloads into Files
• Keep website sessions on this installation, subject to provider policies
• Use fixed zoom controls and compatible website upload controls

DESKTOP INPUT
• Move, click, scroll, drag and resize from one trackpad
• Type with a connected keyboard or the on-screen keyboard
• Use familiar Command shortcuts for supported editing and window actions
• Use a connected mouse when iOS delivers pointer input; AssistiveTouch may be required

DeskOS contains its own native tools and website shortcuts. It cannot run or control arbitrary installed apps inside its windows. Website sign-in, media, DRM and editing support depend on the provider. Keep DeskOS active while using an external display. Projects reference original media, which must remain available; imported browser images and generated assets require local storage. Some archive formats and encrypted or multipart archives are not supported. Caption model files download on first use and occupy device storage.
