Connect Android to Mac

Texts, calls and files, on your Mac.

Everything your Android phone knows, on the computer in front of you, so you can reply from the keyboard you're already using. Your phone can stay in your bag.

No account needed Nothing sent to the cloud Set up in two minutes
Everything in one place

The bits of your phone you actually need at your desk

Not a mirror of your screen. Proper Mac windows and proper Mac notifications, with your phone doing the work in the background.

Setting up

Two minutes, then you can forget about it

1

Install both apps

One on your Mac, one on your phone. Both are small and quick.

2

Scan the code

Your Mac shows a QR code. Point your phone at it and they're paired.

3

Pick what to share

Messages, calls, notifications. Turn on what you want, and change your mind any time.

Your stuff stays yours

Nothing leaves your home or office

Your messages travel straight from your phone to your Mac across the Wi-Fi you're already on. They never touch our servers, because there aren't any.

There's no account to create, no password to lose, and nothing for anyone to leak. Turn the Wi-Fi off and the whole thing simply stops.

For the technically minded

Pairing performs an X25519 key exchange authenticated by the QR code, which carries a single-use secret valid for two minutes. Traffic is AES-256-GCM in length-prefixed frames, with separate keys and counters in each direction so a captured frame can't be replayed at its sender.

Every paired phone holds its own key relationship. There is no shared group key, so one compromised device can't read another's traffic. Session keys are derived fresh on each reconnect, so a phone lost next year can't decrypt a recording made today.

Work phone and personal phone, both connected

Up to eight phones at the same time, not one at a time. Each keeps its own messages and notifications, so replying on one never touches the other.
