- Mac users who want to access a Mac from an iPhone or iPad
- Worth noticing
- Setup calls for Tailscale on both devices and the same account; the page says the screen does not pass through a Grimeton server.
Field notes
The listed setup pairs a Mac menu-bar app with the mobile app and a Tailscale network shared by both devices. The page describes a special code flow for connecting a Mac under another Apple ID, and lists macOS 14 and iOS 17 as minimum versions. Its feature list includes touch gestures mapped to Mac trackpad settings, Bluetooth peripherals, and routing the iPhone’s microphone and camera to Mac apps.
