RemoteProxima

RemoteProxima turns your iPhone into a precise, multi-touch trackpad and keyboard for any Mac on your Wi-Fi network — with nothing to install on the Mac.

Most "remote mouse" apps make you download and run a helper app on your computer, grant it accessibility permissions, and keep it open. RemoteProxima doesn't. It talks directly to the Screen Sharing feature that's already built into every Mac, so the only thing you ever install is this iPhone app.

Lean back on the couch and control your media Mac. Run a presentation from across the room. Nudge the cursor without reaching for your mouse. It just works.

HOW IT WORKS
1. On your Mac, turn on Screen Sharing once: System Settings → General → Sharing → Screen Sharing.
2. Open RemoteProxima on your iPhone. Your Mac appears automatically under "Available Macs."
3. Tap it, enter your Mac login once (stored securely on your iPhone), and start controlling.

No Mac app. No accessibility prompts. No accounts. No cloud.

FEATURES
• Multi-touch trackpad: move the cursor, tap to click, two-finger right-click
• Two-finger scrolling, including smooth vertical scroll
• Full keyboard with arrow keys, modifier keys (⌘ ⌥ ⌃ ⇧), Esc, Tab, and Return
• Automatic discovery of Macs on your network (no typing IP addresses)
• Manual connect by IP for Macs on other subnets
• Remembers your Macs and credentials so you connect in one tap
• Clean, dark, full-screen interface built for one-handed use

REQUIREMENTS
• A Mac with Screen Sharing enabled (built into macOS — nothing to download)
• Your iPhone and Mac on the same Wi-Fi network
• Your Mac login username and password

PRIVACY FIRST
RemoteProxima has no servers, no accounts, and no analytics. Your Mac credentials are
stored only in the iPhone's secure Keychain and are sent only to your Mac as part
of its encrypted Screen Sharing handshake. Nothing ever leaves your local network.
We don't collect any data. Period.

A NOTE ON SCROLLING
RemoteProxima uses Apple's Screen Sharing, which supports discrete scroll wheel events.
Scrolling and tapping feel great; some advanced trackpad gestures that rely on a
companion Mac app (like pixel-perfect pinch-to-zoom) are outside what Screen Sharing
exposes. We've tuned everything Screen Sharing allows to feel as smooth as possible.
