## What is Macky?

The easiest way to use your Mac from your iPhone.

Macky gives you two ways to reach your Mac from your iPhone:

SCREEN MODE
See and control your Mac's screen from your iPhone. Click, type, drag and full remote control of every app on your Mac. Perfect for when you need a file, an app, or a workflow that lives on your Mac. Like a remote desktop.

TERMINAL MODE
Get a real terminal session on your Mac. Run commands, edit files with vim or nano, manage processes everything you'd do in Terminal.app, now on your iPhone.

PERFECT FOR
- Mac users who want their Mac accessible from anywhere
- Travelers who left files on their home Mac
- Developers who need quick terminal access on the go
- Anyone tired of TeamViewer/AnyDesk complexity


How it works?
Most remote apps rely on SSH, which means open ports, VPN setup, router configuration and key management. Macky uses WebRTC instead, the same technology powering video calls, to create a direct encrypted connection between your iPhone and Mac. No middleman. No complexity.

Remote Access: No SSH, no VPN, no port forwarding, no router configuration. Just install Macky on your iPhone/iPad and your Mac is in your pocket.

Why WebRTC?
Your terminal data never touches our servers. The connection is peer to peer, end to end encrypted, and survives network switches seamlessly. Sub 50ms latency typical.

WHY MACKY?

Direct peer-to-peer connection (WebRTC)

### 5/5 — Just awesome

*2026-06-20*

It is best and very sleek to use

### 1/5 — Fake

*2026-06-18*

Scam scam after creating acc and login they ask u for a 999₹ subscription & after u created an acc they didn’t allow you to delete your account

**Developer response:** I’m sorry you felt that way and scam is a strong word :( You used your daily quota and we have server bills to pay and don’t have free money sitting on table to pay for free usage forever.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2026-06-15*

Having used other systems to access my Mac away from my desk, I found that they all lacked features or were a pain to set up. Macky removes both of those issues and takes it even further with dedicated Terminal access. Brilliant app. Worth the money.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words!

### 5/5 — Best MAC to iPhone mirroring app

*2026-06-12*

I was waiting for something like this for a while now to access my mac from my phone to check on my files which acts on like an add on storage.

### 5/5 — Just go for it

*2026-06-08*

Non- negotiable

### 5/5 — So cool

*2026-06-04*

Its so cool. And have 0 latency. It feels unreal

### 5/5 — Wonderful app

*2026-05-21*

It works like magic by letting me use Mac from iPhone and no more I left my Mac at desk

### 5/5 — Unbelievably Useful

*2026-05-16*

This has saved my rear end. I have been in crunch for months and this allows me leave the desk with full confidence and control. The mix between tmux and screen share means I’m covered for every situation. The creator is communicative and making constant updates.

**Developer response:** Yooo thanks for the kind words! Again if you face any bugs or have suggestions you know how to reach me!

### 2/5 — Unreliable

*2026-04-07*

I would give this one star, except customer service is responsive. Unfortunately, the app is unreliable and only sometimes works, and more often, not. I moved to a competitor who is cheaper, and more reliable.

**Developer response:** Hey I’m extremely sorry about that but I’ve conpletely rewritten the code to native swift and most of the bugs are now fixed. It is actually much cleaner to use now!

### 5/5 — Works great

*2026-03-12*

I use this app for Claude code on the go
