v0.1.1
vty.dev · open source by Inertia
Desktop phone companion for shortcuts and plugins.
Inspired by GTA’s in-game phone.
Not affiliated with Rockstar Games or Take-Two Interactive.
Inspired by GTA’s in-game phone: a floating home screen on your desktop for shortcuts, themes, and plugins. Hide and show it with a hotkey (default Shift+Tab).
It’s a natural fit for the FiveM community, and for livestreamers who want quick access to apps, tools, and links without a Stream Deck. Built with gamers in mind for quick multitasking mid-match or mid-stream. Launch Discord, Spotify, browsers, games, custom tiles, wallpaper packs, and whatever else you wire up.
