Macky is a secure mobile client that lets you connect to your Mac's screen and terminal from your iPhone using end-to-end encrypted WebRTC. It supports native shell (Zsh, Bash), Claude Code by Anthropic, Codex by OpenAI, and full remote desktop.

How does Macky connect my iPhone to my Mac?

Macky uses peer-to-peer WebRTC with DTLS-SRTP encryption. A signaling server coordinates the initial handshake, but all screen and terminal data flows directly between your devices without passing through any cloud server.

Yes. Macky uses four layers of security: E2E encrypted WebRTC transport, dual-layer identity verification (account tokens plus a master password), device allow-listing, and blind signaling where screen and terminal data never touches Macky's servers.

Does Macky log my terminal commands?

No. Macky has a zero-logs policy. Terminal commands, output, and screen data are never recorded, stored, or accessible by Macky's servers. All data is end-to-end encrypted between your devices.

What AI tools does Macky support?

Macky supports Claude Code (by Anthropic) and Codex (by OpenAI) in addition to native Zsh and Bash shells and full remote desktop, all accessible from your iPhone.

What are the system requirements for Macky?

The Mac host app requires macOS 15 or later. The iPhone remote app requires iOS 18 or later.

How much does Macky cost?

Macky offers a free Basic plan with 5-minute sessions, 1 Mac host, and 1 iPhone remote. The Pro plan costs $29 as a one-time lifetime payment and includes unlimited sessions, unlimited devices, 30-day connection logs, and background connect.

Does iPad have a terminal?

No. iPadOS does not come with a Terminal app. You can add one with apps like iSH, a-Shell, Blink Shell or Macky.

What is the best terminal app for iPad?

It depends on what you connect to. iSH is best for learning, Blink Shell and Prompt 3 are great for cloud servers, and Macky is best if you have a Mac.

Is there a free terminal app for iPad?

Yes. iSH and a-Shell are free. Macky is free with 5 minute sessions.

Can I run Docker or Claude Code on an iPad?

Not on the iPad itself. You can run them on your Mac and use them from your iPad with Macky.

Can I use my Mac's Terminal from my iPad?

Yes. Macky connects your iPad to your Mac and opens your Mac's own shell. You can also switch to the full Mac desktop.

Beste iPad Terminal Apps 2026: 5 Tools für Entwickler

Download für Mac Download für iOS

Das iPad Pro mit M-Chip und Magic Keyboard bietet herausragende Hardware, doch iPadOS bringt von Haus aus kein Terminal mit.

Entwickler nutzen drei Hauptwege:

Lokale Emulatoren: Apps wie iSH emulieren ein minimalistisches Alpine Linux offline.
SSH-Clients: Blink Shell und Termius verbinden sich per Port 22 mit entfernten Servern.
Direkte Mac-Fernsteuerung: Macky streamt das echte Mac-Terminal und den Desktop per WebRTC ohne Router-Konfiguration.

Fazit

Wenn Ihr Entwicklungs-Setup auf Ihrem Mac liegt (Docker, lokale Repositories, Claude Code), bietet Macky den direktesten Weg, Ihre Mac-Shell vom iPad aus zu steuern.
