About

Passpoint Demo

Features
Read full description

The purpose of this Passpoint Demo application is to showcase and test Nomadix and Trusted WiFi Passpoint services on a customer network as part of a “try before you buy” proof of concept. It requires upfront discussion and setup with our sales and support teams and does not function without these prior arrangements. It is also not the final application that will be used should a customer decide to proceed with the service. Please contact sales@nomadix.com or support@nomadix.com for further information. Passpoint (aka Hotspot 2.0) enables frictionless, secure and private network user onboarding. Frequent visitors are better protected against potential cyber threats, while bypassing repeated logins, forms and passwords, automatically connecting as they return to a venue or roam between inter-linked Wi-Fi hotspots. The best experience is delivered through brand loyalty mobile apps integration, which also generates more engagement opportunities for service providers. Beyond the technology, Nomadix and GlobalReach are trusted advisors bringing real-world operational expertise, having been involved with the standard since its inception.

About

AFK Remote

AFK is a remote desktop app that connects your iPhone to your Mac — built specifically for AI-assisted development. Modern coding is about directing AI agents, reviewing their output, and verifying results. AFK lets you do this from anywhere: your couch, your bed, or your favorite coffee shop. HOW IT WORKS 1. Install the free macOS companion app (AFK Host) 2. Pair your iPhone once 3. Connect anytime over WiFi or cellular 4. Voice-command your AI tools and watch the magic happen VOICE-FIRST DESIGN Typing prompts on a phone keyboard is painful. AFK uses push-to-talk voice input optimized for natural language instructions. Just hold, speak your command, and release. Your words go straight to Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI tool you're using. INSTANT WINDOW SWITCHING Vibe coding means jumping between apps — terminal, browser, simulator, diff viewer. AFK gives you quick-switch buttons to instantly focus the window you need. No squinting at a shrunken desktop or hunting for tiny window edges. LOW LATENCY STREAMING WebRTC peer-to-peer connection means everything feels immediate. Scrolling, tapping, voice — no lag, no stutter. Works great on WiFi and surprisingly well on cellular. YOUR REAL ENVIRONMENT This isn't a sandboxed cloud IDE. It's your actual Mac — your configs, your tools, your local databases, your running services. Everything you've set up, accessible from your pocket.
