iPhone + Mac
A simpler way
to control your Mac.
Smart Gadgets turns an iPhone into a wireless Mac trackpad with a colorful shortcut work panel. Numeric keypad and customizable macro modes are one switch away. It works directly between devices without screen streaming or an internet account.

Fast, precise,
and quiet.
Color shortcuts beside the trackpad
The default Work mode keeps common actions such as copy, paste, and undo beside the trackpad.
Local-first connection
Find a Mac automatically on the same Wi‑Fi, with app-to-app Bluetooth LE as a fallback.
Keypad and custom macros
Switch to the numeric keypad or save the button count, size, position, icon, and shortcut combination you need.
Multi-touch
Different actions for different finger counts
Smart Gadgets combines input that public Apple APIs can reproduce with macOS keyboard shortcuts. Behavior can vary by app and Mac settings.
Move and click
Pointer movement, tap, double-click, and double-tap-hold dragging.
Scroll and zoom
Vertical and horizontal scrolling, right-click, and pinch-driven zoom shortcuts.
Navigate spaces
Swipe horizontally between Spaces or vertically for Mission Control and App Exposé.
See your windows
A deliberate pinch or spread triggers the configured Mission Control family shortcut.
Direct connection
Pair securely with Mac Receiver
Install
Install the free Mac Receiver signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
Allow input
Enable Smart Gadgets Receiver in macOS Accessibility so it can post input through public CGEvent APIs.
Pair once
Approve a QR invitation or six-digit code. Trust data remains locally in each device's Keychain.
USB HID Bridge · in development
For locked-down work PCs.
A dedicated Smart Gadgets HID Bridge is being designed to turn the iPhone's encrypted Bluetooth LE input into standard USB keyboard and mouse reports. A generic Bluetooth dongle cannot provide this function.
Connect the dedicated Bridge
Plug the hardware into the work PC. No Receiver app or custom driver is installed on that PC.
Hold the hot button
Press and hold the HID quick-setup control, scan the Bridge QR code, and approve secure pairing once.
Carry your layouts
Supported keyboard, mouse, and media-key macros stay on the iPhone so the same layout can be used on another PC.
Privacy by design
Input stays between your devices.
Smart Gadgets has no account, advertising, cross-app tracking, analytics SDK, or developer-operated input relay server.
Read the Smart Gadgets Privacy Policy →Bluetooth note
The current Bluetooth option is an app-to-app BLE link between iPhone and Mac Receiver. Public iOS APIs do not let the iPhone appear as standard Bluetooth HID hardware. Receiver-free use is planned for a separate certified HID Bridge; generic dongles are not compatible.
