DESCRIPTIONS
Short (50 words):
Control My Mac turns your iPhone or iPad into a shortcut deck for your Mac. Every Mac app can get its own Grid of one-tap buttons that switches in by itself. Press a shortcut on your Mac and it's saved. One finger also runs the trackpad and keyboard. No account.

Long (121 words):
Control My Mac turns the iPhone or iPad you already own into a shortcut deck for your Mac. Every Mac app can have its own Grid of one-tap buttons that switches in by itself when that app is in front: editing shortcuts in your video editor, tab controls in your browser. To add a shortcut, press it once on your Mac. When you need more than buttons, the same finger runs the rest of the Mac: trackpad, live or draft keyboard, app launcher and window switching. Everything works one-handed, so two-hand shortcuts become a single tap. Phone and Mac connect directly over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, encrypted, with no account. The Mac app is free; the full Grid is an optional upgrade.

About Control My Mac (89 words):
Control My Mac is an iPhone and iPad app with a free Mac companion, made by solo developer Sebastian Škoić in Slovenia. It turns the phone or tablet into a shortcut deck that follows whichever Mac app is in front, plus a trackpad, keyboard, app launcher and window switcher, all usable with one finger. It needs no account, the apps collect no data, and phone and Mac connect directly over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi with encryption. Available in 16 languages on the App Store; the Mac app is at controlmymac.com.

NOTE
App grids and Auto-Switch are part of the paid Full App. The free Essentials plan includes one Grid button.

ABOUT THE MAKER
Sebastian Škoić is a solo app developer from Slovenia and the tech creator behind Sebs_Tech, with more than 30,000 followers across TikTok, Instagram and YouTube. He designed, built and ships Control My Mac on his own: the iPhone and iPad app, the Mac app and the website.

QUOTES (Sebastian Škoić, maker of Control My Mac)
On the Grid: "Your Mac has hundreds of keyboard shortcuts and a lot of them need two hands. I wanted each one to be a single tap on the phone that's already next to you, and I wanted the buttons to change by themselves when I switch apps."
On editing: "When Premiere is in front, my phone shows my editing shortcuts. When I jump to Safari, it shows tab controls. I don't touch anything, it just follows me."
On privacy: "It's your phone and your Mac talking to each other, and that's it. No account, no servers, nothing to sign up for. That's how I'd want a remote for my own computer to work."
On one-handed use: "If a shortcut needs two hands, that's a problem for a lot of people. On the Grid it's one tap with one finger."
On building it alone: "I'm one person in Slovenia. Every button in the app is something I use myself."
