Free Mac app + iPhone remote · No account · No ads

Run your whole Mac with one finger.

Control My Mac turns your iPhone into a precision trackpad, keyboard and command deck for your Mac. Point, click, scroll, type, launch apps, switch windows and fire shortcuts — with a single finger, from anywhere in the room.

macOS 14+ · iOS 17+ · Free · No account, no servers

The whole Mac, one-handed

Everything on screen is reachable through one finger on your iPhone — built that way from the start, not adapted afterwards. Hover, focus or tap a card to watch it in action.

Precision trackpad

Move the pointer, click, right-click and scroll with smooth, low-latency gestures sized for one hand.

Composer keyboard

Draft and edit a whole message on your iPhone, then insert it on the Mac in one go — no racing a live cursor.

Live keyboard

Type straight into whatever has focus on the Mac, key by key, exactly like a hardware keyboard.

Advanced

App launcher

Open any Mac app from a grid on your phone — no hunting through the Dock from across the room.

Advanced

Window switching

Jump between windows and apps from your phone, so the screen you need is always one tap away.

Advanced

Mac keyboard shortcuts

Fire two-handed keyboard chords as single taps — copy, paste, screenshots, app shortcuts and more.

Made for anyone

If you have an iPhone, a Mac and a reason not to be at the keyboard right now, this is for you. A few of the people it already fits:

One usable hand

Injury, RSI, a cast, a baby asleep on your arm, limited mobility — the whole Mac stays within reach of one finger.

Couch & movie nights

Scroll, search, queue the next episode and click pause on screen — without leaving the blanket.

Mac-mini home theater

The Mac under the TV finally gets a remote worthy of it. Browse, queue and play from the sofa.

Presenters & teachers

Walk the room and keep slides, demos and the pointer in your pocket.

Power users

A second input deck beside the keyboard: launcher, window switching and shortcuts on glass.

In bed

Lights off, film on, Mac across the room. Click the on-screen controls without surfacing from the duvet.

At the kitchen counter

Hands in the dough, recipe on the Mac. Scroll the next step and click to the next song without washing up first.

Standing desks & pacers

Take the call walking. The screen keeps up with you, not your chair.

Music across the room

Click play, pause, skip or the volume slider on screen from wherever the evening has moved you.

Accessibility-first computing

Designed one-finger-first, not retrofitted. Every feature reachable without a second hand on deck.

Install the free Mac app

Download Control My Mac for Mac — a lightweight menu-bar companion. Open it and it shows a QR code.

Get the iPhone app

Install Control My Mac on your iPhone the day it hits the App Store — your Mac will already be waiting. Keep both devices on the same Wi-Fi, or use Bluetooth.

Scan the QR code

Point your iPhone at the code on your Mac. The devices pair directly — encrypted, device-to-device — and you're in control.

Step 1 takes 30 seconds.

Free · No account

Yours, not ours

A pointing device should not have a business model between you and your Mac.

No account, no servers

Nothing to sign up for. Your iPhone talks directly to your Mac over your local network or Bluetooth, encrypted.

No ads, ever

Not in the free tier, not anywhere. A remote control is not a billboard.

Camera = QR only

The iPhone camera is used for exactly one thing: scanning the pairing code on your Mac. Nothing is stored or sent.

Simple pricing, on the page

The Mac app is free — forever. It isn't a tier, it's the download; if it saves you time you can leave a tip, never a fee. The iPhone app is a paid App Store purchase: every new user starts on a 7-day free trial of Advanced, then Simple is free and Advanced is paid.
