## What is VirtualProg Remote Control?

VirtualProg puts your Mac's virtual machines in your pocket. Connect to VirtualProg running on your Mac over your local network/internet, and monitor and control every VM from your iPhone or iPad — start and stop machines, watch and interact with the live screen, open a terminal, and manage snapshots and templates, all without sitting at your Mac.

VirtualProg for iOS is a companion app. Your virtual machines keep running on your Mac; nothing runs on your device.

VIRTUAL MACHINES
• See every VM at a glance, as a list or a grid with live thumbnails
• Search, filter and sort by name, state, CPU or memory
• Select several VMs and start, shut down, stop or snapshot them together
• Full control: start, pause, resume, restart, suspend, shut down and force stop
• Create new VMs with Quick Create, or the full Advanced Create configuration
• View CPU, memory, network and usage details for any VM

LIVE SCREEN
• Watch and control a VM's display with touch and a hardware keyboard
• Pinch to zoom, drag to pan, and switch between fit and actual size
• Adaptive frame rate with hardware H.265/H.264 video for a smooth, low-bandwidth picture
• Attach and detach USB devices connected to your Mac
• Give memory back to your Linux with the memory balloon control

TERMINALS
• Serial console with full ANSI colour support
• SSH terminal with password or private-key authentication
• A built-in command line, compatible with VirtualProg's vpvm commands

SNAPSHOTS, CHECKPOINTS & TEMPLATES
• Browse snapshots as a list or a visual timeline
• Create, restore, edit and delete snapshots
• Instant checkpoints and linked clones, with a family-tree diagram (macOS 27 or later)
• Turn any VM or snapshot into a reusable template

NETWORKS & IMAGES
• Manage host networks and see how your VMs connect with a network topology diagram
• Download macOS and Linux installation images to your Mac from the built-in catalog

DISK SPACE & LOGS
• See exactly what's using space across your VMs, templates and snapshots
• Grow a disk or delete what you no longer need
• Browse application and per-VM logs, with search and live tailing

SECURITY
• Master and scoped access tokens, so you can share limited access safely
• Two-factor authentication for sign-in
• Optional Face ID / Touch ID lock for the app itself

DESIGNED FOR IPHONE AND IPAD
• A sidebar layout on iPad puts your VM list and details side by side
• Light, Dark or System appearance, with a choice of accent colours
• Siri and Shortcuts support to start, stop, snapshot and open VMs by voice or automation
• Built-in help, right in the app

PRIVACY BY DESIGN
VirtualProg for iOS connects only to your own Mac on your local network/internet. There is no cloud service and no remote relay — your data never leaves your network.

REQUIREMENTS
• iOS 17 or later
• VirtualProg running on a Mac, with the CLI Server and External Access enabled
• The same local network or internet as your Mac
