For
Mac owners who want remote control from an iPhone or iPad
Worth noticing
The setup uses macOS’s built-in Screen Sharing and a Tailscale 100.x.x.x address; no separate Mac server is required.

Field notes

The setup instructions point users to System Settings > General > Sharing to enable Screen Sharing, then ask them to install Tailscale on both devices. Listed controls include modifier keys, Escape, Tab, arrow keys, and shortcuts for Spotlight and Mission Control. The page also says the Mac password stays in the iPhone Keychain and unlocks with Face ID.
