Your computer. In your hands. Literally. Remio turns your phone or tablet into a pixel-perfect, buttery-smooth window to your Mac or Windows PC. Ultra-low latency. High-resolution streaming with hardware acceleration. Every tap, scroll, and gesture feels like you're sitting right at your desk. ▸ CONNECT IN SECONDS No accounts. No VPNs. No complicated setup. Open the app, scan the QR code on your computer — or type in a short device code — and you're connected. It's that simple. ▸ BUILT FOR REAL WORK • Ultra-high resolution streaming with hardware decoding — crystal-clear text and visuals, even on high-resolution displays • Ultra-low latency — responsive enough for precision work and fast-paced tasks • Full keyboard with native shortcut support — copy, paste, switch apps, all work seamlessly. The keyboard even appears automatically the moment you tap a text field on your computer. • Dynamic Resolution — the remote screen reshapes to fit your device the instant you rotate or change orientation, with no flicker and no restart. Or dial in any custom resolution you like. • Live audio — hear your computer's sound right on your device, perfectly in sync with the picture • Clipboard sync — copy on your computer, paste on your phone, and vice versa • Gamepad support — connect an Xbox, PlayStation, or MFi controller and play remotely • Picture-in-Picture — keep your computer visible while you use other apps • Region zoom — pinch to zoom into any area of your screen for detail work • See your computers before you connect — each one shows a live preview of its screen, right on the home screen ▸ TOUCH & GESTURES THAT MAKE SENSE Remio's input system was built from scratch for touch, with two ways to control your computer — switch between them anytime: • Touchpad mode — your screen becomes a precision trackpad, with a real cursor you can hover before you click. • Direct Touch mode — your finger acts like a real touchscreen. Tap exactly where you see it, no cursor to chase. Either way, the gestures feel completely natural: • Tap to click, two-finger tap to right-click • Two-finger scroll, pinch to zoom, press-and-hold to drag • Three-finger swipe to move between desktops and Spaces, open Mission Control, or reveal all your windows — exactly like a Magic Trackpad • Assign any keyboard shortcut to a three- or four-finger tap for one-touch access to your favorite command • A built-in gesture guide is always a tap away, so every control is easy to discover ▸ A BEAUTIFUL, LIVING HOME Remio has been redesigned from the ground up with a calm, celestial dark look and soft, translucent glass. Your computers float in a gentle constellation, with a large card spotlighting the one you're about to open — and every screen glides and morphs into the next, so the whole app feels like one continuous, effortless experience. ▸ YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS All streaming data between your devices is end-to-end encrypted. Your sessions are never stored, recorded, or accessible by anyone — including us. Device pairing is secured through industry-standard authentication, and everything else stays between your own devices. No tracking. No ads. No behavioral profiling. Your privacy is the default, not an option you have to enable. ▸ 100% NATIVE Remio is built natively from the ground up for this platform — from the streaming engine to the settings screen. That means better performance, lower battery drain, and a smooth experience you can feel. ▸ HOW IT WORKS 1. Install Remio Host on your computer (free at remio.net) 2. Open Remio on your phone or tablet and scan the QR code — or enter the code shown on your computer 3. You're connected. No account needed. No subscription. ▸ EVERYTHING INCLUDED Every feature above is available to everyone today, right out of the box. Just a great remote desktop experience — download it and connect.

Read full description

Chord Transcriber is a chord recognition and practice app for guitar players, music learners, and songwriters. Hear a song you like and want to know which chords it uses, what key it is in, or how fast it is? Import an audio file or choose a video from Photos, then analyze the song on your device to get a chord timeline, key, tempo, meter, and helpful diagnostics. Review each chord segment with its time position, play the original audio or video, and adjust pitch, speed, AB loop, repeat, and volume while you learn the song. The built-in guitar chord library lets you search common chord shapes and play them as block chords or arpeggios, making the app useful for transcription, practice, accompaniment prep, and lesson reference. Chord Transcriber also includes ear training. Start with basic major and minor triads, then move into seventh chords, suspended chords, add chords, and extended harmony. Key training helps you react faster to tonal centers, chord colors, and common progressions. Key features: • Import audio from Files or choose videos from Photos • Detect chord timelines, key, tempo, and beats locally on device • Switch between standard and extended chord analysis models • Play audio or video with pitch, speed, loop, repeat, and volume controls • Search guitar chord fingerings and hear block or arpeggio playback • Practice chord ear training and key recognition • Supports multiple interface languages, local project cache, result review, and optional Pro features Subscription and purchase information: Chord Transcriber offers a free experience and optional Pro features.

Privacy and data information: Your audio, videos, and analysis results stay on your device by default. The app does not require an account and does not upload your media to a server operated by us.
