Prosper Remote

Prosper Remote puts your Mac's terminal in your pocket. It attaches to terminal sessions running on your Mac and streams them to your iPhone or iPad ā the very same session, with full scrollback and live output. Start something on your desk, walk away, and pick it up on your phone exactly where you left it. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT ⢠Same session, not a new one. Sessions live on your Mac (a dtach-style server), so reconnecting restores the live screen ā no lost output, no restarts. ⢠Built for flaky mobile networks. Lose signal in an elevator or on the subway and Prosper silently reconnects and repaints right where you were. ⢠No passwords to manage. Your phone and Mac talk over your private Tailscale network; the Mac only accepts devices already on your tailnet. ⢠Fast, lightweight, native. A real terminal renderer with true color, proper reflow, and a tuned on-screen key bar ā Esc, Tab, Ctrl, arrows, Home/End, Ctrl-C, Ctrl-D and more, styled to stay out of your way. BUILT FOR REAL WORK ⢠Manage multiple sessions per machine ā create, rename, attach, stop. ⢠Switch between machines you've connected to before. ⢠Keyboard-aware layout keeps your prompt and its footer visible as output streams in. GET STARTED 1. Install Prosper on your Mac and enable Remote Terminal. 2. Install Tailscale on your Mac and this device, signed into the same account. 3. Enter your Mac's Tailscale name and connect.
