The MeowDisplay Mac app, ready to download. Pair it with MeowDisplay for iPhone and iPad on the App Store to use your iPhone or iPad as a mirrored or extended display for your Mac.

Download

File What it is Requires
MeowDisplay.dmg The Mac app: shares your Mac's screen with your iPhone or iPad macOS 14 or later
MeowDisplayReceiver.dmg Optional: MeowDisplay Receiver, which turns a spare Mac into a display for another Mac macOS 12 or later

Both apps are universal (Apple silicon and Intel), signed with Developer ID (Jai Sukka, team CZ8BW9J896), and notarized by Apple with the ticket stapled.

Install

  1. Open MeowDisplay.dmg and drag MeowDisplay to Applications.
  2. Open MeowDisplay from Applications. macOS asks once to confirm opening an app downloaded from the internet; choose Open.
  3. Install MeowDisplay from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad (iOS/iPadOS 16.4 or later) and open it.
  4. Connect over USB or the same Wi-Fi network, then pair by confirming the matching code on both devices.
  5. Grant Screen Recording when asked. For control from the device, also grant Accessibility and turn on Allow Input.

Notes

  • Built from release/app-store-rc @ cbbad7f, the branch that produced MeowDisplay 1.20.0 for iPhone and iPad.
  • Updates: the apps use Sparkle with MeowDisplay's own signed feeds. Future releases will be offered in-app after you allow update checks.
  • Mac-to-iPhone is the primary tested setup. iPad and the standalone Mac Receiver need broader hardware validation.
