Using a Mac from an iPad with Whirrik

Typing that feels like the Mac

Your keys, composed by the Mac itself

Keyboard keys go straight to the Mac

With a keyboard on your iPad or another Mac, keys are sent as-is and the Mac's own input method composes them — Korean, Japanese and more, just like sitting at the Mac.

On-screen keyboard without broken text

Text you're composing on the iPhone keyboard is previewed and sent once it's complete, so nothing arrives half-composed.

Switch input sources like on the Mac

Caps Lock, the language key or right ⌘ switch the Mac's input source. The A/한 button on the top bar works too.

Typing on the Mac from an iPad

Anywhere, with one Apple sign-in

No IP addresses, no router settings, no pairing codes to copy
Macs signed in with the same Apple ID show up in the list

01
Direct (IPv6)

Mac and device connect straight away

→
02
P2P

If direct fails, the devices punch a path

→
03
Relay

On networks where neither works, a relay carries it

On the same Wi-Fi it connects to the nearby Mac directly

Your Macs appear after signing in with Apple
Screen, sound, input and clipboard are end-to-end encrypted

Locked with keys only your devices hold.
Even through a relay, the server can't see the content.

FAQ

Do I need to install anything on the Mac?

Yes. The Mac app sends the screen and receives input.
The same Mac app also connects to other Macs.

Why Screen Recording and Accessibility?

Screen Recording sends the Mac's screen; Accessibility lets your keys and clicks reach the Mac.
Without either, you won't see the screen or be able to control it.

My Mac isn't in the list

Make sure the Mac and the device are signed in with the same Apple ID,
and that Whirrik is running on the Mac (its icon is in the menu bar).

It's sometimes slow away from home

On networks where a direct connection isn't possible, the connection goes through a relay and can be slower.
Whirrik lowers quality to keep motion responsive.

Can the server see my screen?

No. Screen, sound, input and clipboard are encrypted so only your devices can open them.
The server only helps your devices find each other. See the privacy policy.
