JetPilot is a remote control app for two kinds of machines: JetKVM — the tiny KVM-over-IP device that gives you keyboard, video, and mouse access to any computer, even when its operating system is down — and Windows PCs and servers over Remote Desktop (RDP). Bring that control to your iPhone and iPad, from one app. JETKVM: CONTROL FROM ANYWHERE • See the target machine's live screen and control its keyboard and mouse. • Connect directly on your local network for the lowest latency, or reach your devices from anywhere through JetKVM Cloud. • Nothing is installed on the target machine — JetKVM presents as a standard USB keyboard, mouse, and display, so it works from the BIOS/UEFI up. REMOTE DESKTOP: YOUR WINDOWS MACHINES • Connect to Windows PCs and servers with Remote Desktop, with Network Level Authentication and encrypted connections. • Clipboard sync both ways: copy on Windows and paste on your phone, or copy on your phone and paste on Windows. • Pick the desktop resolution per computer, or let Automatic fit your screen. • Server certificates are trusted on first use, and can be forgotten and re-trusted after a reinstall. BUILT FOR TOUCH • Touch-screen and trackpad mouse modes, with tap to click, two-finger tap to right-click, two-finger scroll, pinch to zoom, and tap-and-hold to drag. • On-screen keyboard with a dedicated special-keys row — Esc, Tab, arrows, function keys, and latching Ctrl/Alt/Cmd/Shift. • One-tap Ctrl+Alt+Delete, paste-as-typing, and on-demand portrait/landscape. • Hardware keyboard support. MANAGE THE WHOLE JETKVM DEVICE • Firmware updates with live progress. • Video quality, EDID, USB emulation and identifiers, display backlight, network info, developer mode and SSH keys, Wake-on-LAN, reboot, and factory reset. POWER AND SERIAL EXTENSIONS • ATX power board: power, reset, and force-off, with live power/HDD LED state. • DC power board: switch output and read live voltage, current, and wattage. • Serial console over an interactive terminal. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No Rigwig account, no analytics, no trackers. • Device passwords, Windows credentials, and cloud session tokens are stored in the iOS Keychain and sent only to your own devices or to JetKVM Cloud. FREE TO TRY • Use the full app free: sessions share a 3-minute budget of connected time, followed by a short break before the next one. • A one-time JetPilot Pro purchase removes the limit and unlocks the ATX/DC power boards and serial console. No subscription. JetPilot is an independent app. A JetKVM device, or a computer with Remote Desktop enabled, is required. "JetKVM" is a trademark of its respective owner; Windows and Remote Desktop are trademarks of Microsoft Corporation. JetPilot is not affiliated with or endorsed by the makers of JetKVM or by Microsoft.
