Field notes
The page’s sample activity logs show individual commands and results, including opening Instagram, tapping through Reels, and sending a text that appears as Delivered. The listed controls extend beyond taps and typing to the home button, while the privacy copy says the connection is over USB and recognition runs locally on the Mac. The site also identifies macOS 14 or later as a requirement.
