A big update: sound and the gallery, this Mac's screen on the phone, and many new tools. You also need DyskLink for Android 0.2.0.

Moving from 0.1: the bundle ID changed from id.phonelink.mac to id.dysklink.mac. Pairings, keys, and Clipboard History stay, and settings are copied over on the first launch. macOS sees a new app, so allow Accessibility, Screen Recording, and notifications again, and turn Open at login off and on. Phones need the new Android app and pairing again.

What's new with your phone

  • Sound sharing: turn on Let phones hear this Mac and a phone can play this Mac's sound. The phone can play its own sound here too, and the phone's screen window now carries its sound, with a mute button. About 0.1 to 0.5 seconds behind, so best for music.
  • Gallery: browse the phone's photos and videos, open them, or save them to Downloads.
  • This Mac's screen on the phone, with a monitor picker and quality that adapts to the network, and the phone as an extra display.
  • Phone camera as a webcam, USB connection through adb, and game keys for the phone's screen with mouse look and per-game profiles.
  • Photo sync skips photos the Mac already has, scanned documents become searchable PDFs, and the Mac can lock itself when the phone walks away.
  • Other Macs: pair Macs to share copied text and files.

What's new on the Mac

  • Battery: charge limit, Top Up, Discharge, and battery health. Charging control needs a one-time admin password for a small helper.
  • Mac care, a launcher with emoji (skin tones, flags, families), window layouts, a menu bar you can reorder and drop files on, a terminal for the phone, and more notch pages.

Requires macOS 15 or later on Apple Silicon (any M chip). Intel Macs aren't supported.

Install

  1. Download DyskLink-mac-arm64.zip, unzip it, and move DyskLink to Applications.
  2. The app isn't notarized, so macOS blocks the first launch. Open System Settings > Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway.

This build uses a self-signed certificate, not one from Apple. Sound sharing and the gallery are tested with automated tests, not yet on many devices.
