## What is Video Atlas?

Find scenes and people in the videos stored on your Mac, then stream them to iPhone or iPad.

Video Atlas Companion connects to Video Atlas running on a Mac on the same local network. Search by filename or describe what happens in a scene. Browse recurring people or choose a photo and let the Mac find matching videos. Filter, sort, group, and play videos from your Mac.

The connection is encrypted, every device must be approved on the Mac, and there is no account or cloud video library. The built-in sample library lets you try the companion before pairing.

A one-time Video Atlas Pro in-app purchase unlocks unlimited connected-library results on Mac, iPhone, and iPad.

## Pricing and in-app purchases
