Same Mac. A very different view.

A whole-screen remote session squeezes your desktop into your phone. VibeDesk brings one app forward and gives it a workspace shaped for your screen.

A few useful details

Before you connect.

Is the app still running on my Mac?

Yes. You control the actual Mac app, with its existing files and desktop capabilities. VibeDesk brings its window to your device; it doesn’t convert the app into a separate iPhone version.

Does every app fit a narrow screen?

VibeDesk sizes the app’s workspace for your device and resizes its windows. Each app keeps its own layout rules and minimum window size. When an app needs more room, the workspace expands to keep its controls visible.

Which devices can I use?

Control a Mac from an iPhone, an Android device, or another Mac. You need macOS 14+, iOS 17+, or Android 8.0+, respectively. Apple Silicon and Intel Macs are supported.

How does the connection work?

Sign in to VibeDesk on both devices. Find a nearby Mac or enter its local or VPN IP address, then use its six-digit host authorization code. The devices connect directly over TLS.

Can I choose a window or a desktop too?

Yes. Choose a single window, an entire app including its other windows and dialogs, or a dedicated virtual desktop. End control and moved windows return to their original position, size, and minimized state.
