Check before you install

  • iPhone or iPad on iOS 26 or later.
  • macOS 14+, Windows 10/11, or a supported Linux desktop.
  • Both devices on the same network. Guest Wi-Fi with client isolation will not work.
  • Wake-on-LAN needs the computer’s MAC address saved during pairing; Ethernet is more reliable than Wi-Fi.
