PocketDesk

Your Mac.
In your hands.

Control the Mac you know.
From the screen in your hands.

Open up.
There’s your Mac.

The whole screen.
Or just one window.

See your entire display, or choose a single window. PocketDesk reshapes it to fit the screen in your hands, then puts it back when you’re done.

Touch it.
Or use it like a trackpad.

Tap right where you’re looking, or switch to trackpad mode for a precise pointer. Click, right-click, drag, scroll, and pinch to zoom in on the details.

Type or dictate.
Then send.

Write with the keyboard you already know, or just say it. Then send the whole thought at once to whatever’s waiting on your Mac: a coding agent, a chat, a document.

It lands on your Mac.

What you send is typed into the app in front on your Mac, as if you were at its keyboard.

Illustrative devices and interface

The desk can wait.
Your ideas don’t have to.

Your apps keep running on your Mac. PocketDesk brings them to the screen in your hands, so you can check in, give the next instruction, and keep things moving.

Set up in a minute.

Two apps and one QR code. Start on the same network, with no account.

Pairing

A key that stays with your devices.

Every session is secured by a 26-character key created on your Mac. It’s saved in the keychains of your own devices, and the PocketDesk account service never stores it.
