AppRelay Remote

Stop walking back to your desk to kick off a build. Ship from the couch. AppRelay Remote is the mobile companion to AppRelay Server for desktop ā a remote control that commands your Mac or PC to build, run, test, and ship your app projects. The Mac does the work; your phone drives it. Pair once over your local Wi-Fi and your whole AppRelay workspace comes with you: every project, every lane, every release channel, right on your iPhone or iPad. WHAT YOU CAN DO ⢠Trigger builds, runs, and test suites on your Mac with a tap ⢠Cut a release ā ship a lane to its distribution channel without touching your desk ⢠Watch live, streaming log output as each build runs, with a Stop button when you need it ⢠Browse every project as a card: toolchain, lanes, version, and source-control status at a glance ⢠Edit the full project configuration ā general settings, lanes, servers, toolchains, test suites ā and save it back to your Mac ⢠Bump or set version and build numbers ⢠Edit .env / dotenv files on disk, remotely ⢠Manage your Mac's AppRelay license: activate a key, check status, or move the seat BUILT FOR iPHONE AND iPAD On iPhone you get a fast, single-column flow. On iPad you get the same two-column sidebar-and-detail layout as the Mac app ā it even re-skins live when you change the desktop theme. SECURE BY DESIGN ⢠Discovers Macs on your network automatically over Bonjour ⢠Pair with a one-time token shown on your Mac ā each device gets its own credential ⢠All traffic runs over TLS, pinned to your Mac on first connection ⢠Your Mac stays in control: block or disconnect any device at any time ⢠Secrets never leave your Mac ā the phone sees credential labels only, never their values REQUIRES THE MAC APP AppRelay Remote needs AppRelay for macOS running on the same network. Get it at apprelay.io/download. Free to pair; Pro features are managed on the Mac. AppRelay Remote needs the desktop app, which is **not** on the Mac App Store ā it ships directly from the website (Sparkle-updated, notarized DMG). **Download:** https://apprelay.io/download **Requirement:** macOS 13 (Ventura) or later. **Enable the server:** open AppRelay ā **Relay Monitor** ā **Start**. This starts a local HTTPS server, advertises it over Bonjour (`_apprelay._tcp`), and shows the address + a pairing token. **Pair:** on the same Wi-Fi, open AppRelay Remote, pick the Mac under "Discovered Macs" (or enter host/port manually), and enter the pairing token. **Security:** self-signed TLS pinned trust-on-first-use; each device gets its own token; the Mac can block/disconnect any device from Relay Monitor.
