Mirrox vs Glassy Desk

Mirrox is the remote desktop for your Mac that feels truly native. Connect to your Mac’s built-in Screen Sharing (VNC) over your local network or Tailscale and control it from your iPad or iPhone. Built entirely with native SwiftUI, Mirrox implements the complete VNC protocol in Swift with no third-party libraries, no cloud relay, and no account required. Your screen never leaves your network. // Find Your Mac Automatically Stop typing IP addresses. Mirrox automatically discovers Macs running Screen Sharing using Bonjour, fast local network scanning, and reachability checks for your Tailscale machines. Just tap your Mac and connect. // A Remote That Feels Physical • Trackpad mode with precise relative cursor movement and edge-detection haptics • Tap to click, drag to drag, long press or two-finger tap to right-click • Two-finger scrolling, pinch to zoom into Retina detail, and smooth panning • Crisp haptic feedback for clicks, scrolling, and screen edges • Full keyboard support, including ⌘ Command, ⌥ Option, ⌃ Control, function keys, and arrow keys // Mirrox Pro Features — In-App Purchase Required • Smart Zoom — Double-tap any macOS window to instantly zoom into it. (Requires Mirrox Pro) • Picture in Picture — Float your Mac above other iPad apps. (Requires Mirrox Pro) • Multi-Mac — Connect several Macs and switch between them with a three-finger swipe. (Requires Mirrox Pro) • iCloud Sync — Your saved Macs and settings stay synchronized across all your Apple devices. (Requires Mirrox Pro) // Private by Design No accounts. No analytics.

Passwords are securely stored on your device and synchronized only through your private iCloud account. // Works Everywhere Native on iPad, iPhone, and Mac (Catalyst). // Getting Started On your Mac, enable Screen Sharing in: System Settings → General → Sharing Open Mirrox, tap your Mac, and you’re connected in seconds. *** Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Control your Mac from your iPhone or iPad with fast, direct remote access. Glassy Desk supports standard macOS Screen Sharing over VNC and the faster, encrypted Glassy Stream through the Glassy Host companion app. CONNECT YOUR WAY • Discover nearby Macs automatically • Add a Mac by hostname or IP address • Use VNC for standard Screen Sharing • Use Glassy Stream for smooth, low-latency video and input • Connect locally or through a trusted VPN such as Tailscale • Wake supported Macs with Wake-on-LAN • Automatically reconnect after short network interruptions NATURAL CONTROLS • Choose direct touch or trackpad mode • Tap, drag, right-click, scroll, and pinch to zoom • Type with the on-screen keyboard or a hardware keyboard • Send Command, Control, Option, Shift, arrow, function, and common shortcut keys • Select a remote display when multiple screens are available • Use an external display while your iPhone or iPad becomes the controller PRIVATE BY DESIGN Connections go directly to the computer you choose—there is no cloud relay. Saved computers and recent sessions sync through your private iCloud database. Credentials are protected with encrypted storage and used only to authenticate with your computer. COMPATIBILITY VNC is designed and tested with macOS Screen Sharing and Remote Management; other standards-based VNC servers may work. Glassy Stream requires the Glassy Host companion app on the Mac. Remote access requires a network or VPN route to the Mac. Free sessions are timed. Glassy Desk Pro removes the session limit. EULA: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
