MacOn + turns your iPhone or iPad into a home screen for your Mac. Pair once with a single-use code and the Mac on your desk comes with you: its screen, its apps, its builds, its terminal, even its lock screen. It is built like a toy, in a soft 3D clay world you can spin with a finger, and it comes in seventeen themes shared with the Mac app. SEE IT, DRIVE IT • Stream the Mac's screen in hardware H.264, up to 120 fps on ProMotion • Control it with touch, a virtual trackpad and a Sidecar-style Touch Bar • CompactOS refits one Mac window to your phone, so Xcode, Safari or Notes behave like phone apps • Picture in Picture keeps the Mac on screen while you use other apps BUILDS, LIVE • Every pipeline as a step timeline with streaming logs, durations and the raw console • Watch, run, re-run or cancel from anywhere • The full pipeline editor on your phone: provider, repo, branch, triggers, timeouts A DECK AND FLOWS • Turn the device into a Stream Deck: apps with their real icons, shortcuts, media keys, sliders, and live tiles for CPU, battery and builds • Wire up automations as clay blocks on swinging strings: triggers, shell, files, web, AI and logic • Run them from the deck, on a schedule, or when a folder changes A POCKET DEV ENVIRONMENT • Browse the repo, edit in tabs, save back to the Mac • Real terminals on the Mac, tabs included. Shells keep running when you leave • Build and test Xcode projects, pick schemes and destinations JUST ASK • Chat with AI running on your own Mac through Ollama • Or speak a task and Jev drives the Mac step by step, reading the screen as it goes. Jev comes with Pro, with no API key to find • Bring your own AI: Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, a local model, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Keys live in the Mac's Keychain, never on the phone WAKE IT, UNLOCK IT • Wake the Mac over your network, a free Cloudflare tunnel, or iCloud • Unlock it from a themed 3D padlock, with an optional privacy curtain so nobody sees the screen but you • Universal clipboard between the Mac and your devices FLEET • Every paired device hanging off your Mac on a string, with a live glow for the active ones EVERY POWER, YOUR CALL Screen sharing, control, wake and unlock are all off until you turn them on in the Mac app. Pairing codes are single-use and expire. Your code, keys and screen never leave your Mac. There is no MacOn server in between. WHAT YOU NEED The free MacOn app for macOS 14 or later, from macon.id.
