Gaze Host.
For your Mac.

1. Open the disk image and drag Gaze Host into your Applications folder.
2. Open Gaze Host. Under Needs Attention, allow what it asks for:
   • Local Network, so your iPad and iPhone can find this Mac.
   • Screen Recording, to show your Mac’s screen and play its sound. macOS asks you to reopen Gaze Host afterwards.
   • Accessibility, so your touches, clicks and keys reach your Mac.
3. Under Devices, click Pair New Device. A code appears for two minutes.
4. Open Remote Gaze on your iPad or iPhone, tap your Mac, and enter the code.

That’s once per device. Need a hand? Support covers the usual snags.

• Signed and notarized. Gaze Host is signed with our Developer ID and checked by Apple for malicious software, so your Mac can tell where it came from and that it hasn’t been changed since.
• A key for every device. Pairing gives each iPad and iPhone a random 256-bit key of its own, and needs the code shown on your Mac. Remove a device in Gaze Host and its key stops working.
• Encrypted end to end. Every session is encrypted with that key, and with a fresh throwaway key on top, so a recording of it can’t be read later.
• Away from home, only when you say. Reaching your Mac from another network is off until you turn it on. Then your device asks for Face ID first, and signs in with a key kept in its Secure Enclave.
• You can see who came in. Gaze Host keeps a history of every session, file and turned-away try, and can tell you when a device connects from away.
• Your rules. Disconnect a device after it’s been idle. On a Mac with a display, black out its screen and ignore its own keyboard and mouse while you work from elsewhere.

No account, no servers, no analytics. Your Mac and your devices talk directly to each other, and nothing is sent to us. The details are in the privacy policy.

Quit Gaze Host and move it to the Trash. To be thorough, remove your devices in Gaze Host first, and forget your Mac in Remote Gaze.
