## What is Synapse Remote Desktop?

Your Mac, within reach.

Bring the desktop you know to iPhone and iPad. Synapse connects to your Mac so you can pick up a document, make a quick change, or keep a project moving.

YOUR WORKSPACE, CONNECTED
• One account, your Macs. Install the Synapse host app on your Mac, sign in on both devices, and complete macOS permission setup. Available Macs appear under Your Macs.
• Touch, type and navigate. Use touch controls, the on-screen keyboard, and compatible keyboard and pointer accessories. Pinch to zoom in on your work.
• Bring your files. Send files to the Mac or download files it shares. Save temporary downloads to keep them.
• Copy across devices. Move text between your iPhone or iPad and the remote Mac.
• Switch displays. Choose from the host Mac’s available displays.
• The route takes care of itself. Connect directly when possible, with encrypted managed relay fallback when needed.
• Stay in control. Manage enrolled devices, export account data, or delete your Synapse account. Pause sharing on the host whenever you need to.

FREE OR PRO
Free includes 2 enrolled devices and 2 GB of hosted relay traffic per calendar month, supported by ads. Pro includes 10 enrolled devices, 50 GB of hosted relay traffic per calendar month, and no ads. Monthly and yearly subscriptions are available. Both plans include the same core picture quality, encryption, clipboard, audio and file-transfer features. Direct connections do not consume relay allowance. Allowances reset monthly in UTC.
