Your Mac,
in your pocket.
Open apps, see your screen and use your Mac as if you were sitting in front of it — right from your iPhone, wherever you are.
Kite for Mac and iPhone is coming soon.
Try it: tap an app on the iPhone
Set up once. Use it from anywhere.
Just Kite on your Mac and iPhone. No router settings or VPN needed.
Install Kite on your computer
Install Kite on your Mac and choose a password. It sits quietly out of the way.
Open Kite on your iPhone
Sign in, scan the QR code on your Mac (or type its Kite ID), and enter your password.
Approve it once
Your Mac shows a code. If it matches your phone, click Allow — and you’re in.
It’s like sitting at your Mac.
Open and switch apps
All your Mac’s apps as a grid of icons. One tap opens one, and Apps jumps between the ones already open.
See and hear your screen
Watch your Mac live and tap exactly where you want to click. Turn on Sound to hear videos and music too.
A real Mac trackpad
Tap to click, tap and slide to drag, flick to scroll, pinch to zoom and swipe with three fingers — plus a full keyboard. Or use your own keyboard and mouse with an iPad or iPhone.
Works anywhere
At home, at school, on cellular. Kite connects your phone and Mac for you.
A home camera
See and hear the room through your Mac, and talk through its speakers. Off until you switch it on on the Mac. Never recorded.
Unlock with Face ID
When your Mac is reachable, one tap — in the app or from a widget — wakes its screen and unlocks it. Your Mac password stays on your iPhone, behind Face ID or your passcode.
Screen off, sleep and battery
See your Mac’s battery at a glance. Turn its screen off while Kite keeps it awake and reachable, or put it to sleep for the night.
Shortcuts and Siri
Pick ready-made ones like Movie night or Lock my Mac, or build your own. Run them with a tap, Siri, Control Center or a Home Screen widget.
Copy, paste and files
Copy on your phone and paste on your computer, or the other way round. Send photos and files to your computer, and get files from its Desktop, Documents and Downloads.
Curtain Mode
Hide your Mac’s screen from people nearby while you use it from your phone. Switched on in Kite on the Mac; three taps of Esc there bring the screen back.
