Everything You Need, In Your Hand
A responsive touchpad, a real-time keyboard and one-tap controls — designed to make your phone the most convenient input device in the room.
Precision Wireless Touchpad
Slide one finger to move the cursor, tap to click, hold for a right-click and use two fingers to scroll.
Type From Your Phone
Open the keyboard and everything you type — text, Backspace and Enter — appears on your computer in real time.
Smart Shortcuts
Cmd/Ctrl + C, V, Z, Tab, Esc and more, matched to the computer you are connected to.
Media & Volume
Play, pause, skip tracks and change the computer’s volume without leaving the sofa.
Adjustable Sensitivity
Dial cursor speed from 0.5× to 6× — your preference is saved on the phone.
Smooth Control That
Feels Natural
Built for responsiveness: touch movement is gathered on the UI thread and sent the moment it happens, as tiny JSON messages over a single WebSocket.
Every Frame
1 batch per frame
Finger movement is batched at most once per active frame — no flood of tiny updates.
Lightweight
1 KB max per command
Compact, versioned commands keep the connection light on your network.

Run presentations, movies and music from across the room — perfect for the couch or the meeting room.
Tools For Effortless Control
Thoughtful details that make your phone feel like it was always meant to be a mouse.
Tap To Click
A quick tap is a left click, just like a laptop trackpad.
Hold For Right-Click
Long-press anywhere on the pad to open context menus.
Two-Finger Scroll
Scroll pages vertically and horizontally with two fingers.
Auto Discovery
The app finds computers on your network via mDNS — or type the IP.
Auto Reconnect
If Wi-Fi drops, the app keeps trying to reconnect for you.
