Lo Deck turns your iPad or iPhone into a customizable control surface — a "macro pad" — for your computer. Design a grid of buttons in the free Lo Deck desktop app (macOS & Windows), then tap them on your tablet to run actions on your computer in real time. • Live data on every key — CPU, memory, free disk, a clock, the battery, weather and more. • Three triggers per key — tap, long-press and double-tap each fire a different action. • Media & app control — play/pause, volume, launch apps, fire keyboard shortcuts. • Smart home & car — webhooks and Tesla climate from a button. • Pages, folders & themes — organize hundreds of actions; recolor keys, add emoji or images. • Page backgrounds & translucent buttons — give a page its own background image (fill / contain / stretch) and let buttons show through translucently. • Live-value tiles — show any number from an HTTP/JSON API or a shell command. Connects locally on your own Wi-Fi network (no account), or from anywhere via your Lo Deck account. This is a companion app: it needs the free Lo Deck desktop app running on your computer.
