About
MacBeam turns your iPhone or iPad into a remote control for your own Mac.
Same Wi-Fi, or any VPN like Tailscale — see your Mac's full screen at 60fps, type with the real keyboard,
hear system sound, all from your couch, your bed, or the café down the street. No accounts. No cloud servers.
Direct peer-to-peer over TLS.

zoom
• Double-tap & hold = drag (with haptic feedback)
