4/14/2023 0 Comments Use iphone as remote for macis totally free (for what you need) and donation-only supported. Luckily, these are standard apps, don’t use a proprietary secret system, and can be purchased/used without subscriptions. ,You need a VNC app on your phone and a DDNS app on your Mac. This works without the defunct Bac to My Mac or a DDNS service via the screen sharing options in the Mac iMessage app - so it still works around the world only via iMessage handshaking or locally via the local network device name.īut since iOS is missing a VNC screen viewing app, and iMessage doesn’t let you set up screen sharing - well, it’s broken in 2 ways. So Mac to Mac, you can use VNC and the built in “Screen Sharing” app, an Apple lightweight VNC client. Now you need to configure the DMZ function of your router - an Apple Time capsule used to do that Job via Back to my Mac+iCloud - but apple never making a VNC client for the phone and killing it’s DDNS service means you need to fill in those two gaps with a 3rd party app and a freeware service. There is a missing piece of the puzzle - an Apple iOS VNC client, and for many uses, a DDNS service as well, since “Back to My Mac” was killed by apple a few years ago.Īpple used to offer “Back to my Mac” so you don’t need a Dynamic DNS service - though is free and works well.
