Your Mac, right here. Open a document, check a render or pick up where you left off. Remoted brings your Mac desktop to iPhone and iPad, with responsive controls and a clear view of your work. YOUR MAC, WHEREVER YOU ARE Access your Mac over the internet with Remoted Link, the optional Mac companion for device linking and one-time sharing. Link tries an encrypted direct connection and uses an encrypted relay when needed. The relay cannot read your desktop traffic. For manual connections on a local network or VPN, the Mac’s built-in Screen Sharing also works without Link. Download and setup: https://remoted.app/link/ A MAC EXPERIENCE THAT MOVES WITH YOU Connect to your Mac using its built-in Screen Sharing. Find nearby computers, save your Macs and return to them from one place. No Remoted account is required. You choose whether to remember a Mac's sign-in details in Keychain. Standard mode offers smoother, more responsive connections. HIGH PERFORMANCE, WITH SOUND On a compatible Mac and a fast network, High Performance streams desktop video and your Mac's audio. Follow a video edit, hear playback and work with a desktop that feels at home on iPad. With one virtual display, the desktop resolution can adapt to your iPad window as you resize it. CONTROLS THAT FEEL FAMILIAR Put keyboard shortcuts and session tools within reach with redesigned, customizable on-screen controls. Use direct touch or trackpad-style gestures. Bring up the keyboard, use shortcuts or connect a compatible external keyboard, mouse or trackpad. Select a display for the task at hand. In supported High Performance sessions, Picture in Picture keeps your Mac in view while you use another app. REMOTED COMPLETE Organizing computers and discovering nearby Macs is free. Connecting to a Mac requires Remoted Complete. Choose monthly, annual or lifetime access; each unlocks the same connection features. Eligible new subscribers can try the monthly or annual plan free for three days. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled through your App Store account. Lifetime access is a one-time purchase with no trial. Prices and trial eligibility are shown before purchase. Remoted connects only to Macs; it doesn't support Windows, Linux or other VNC servers. High Performance requires a compatible Mac and a fast network. Automatic desktop resizing uses one virtual display. A reachable Mac with Screen Sharing enabled is required. Remoted Link requires macOS 26 or later. Your Mac’s sign-in and permission settings still apply.
