Otherdesk 1.2 simplifies setup and session controls

Find nearby Macs, follow a short setup guide and use clearer pointer, keyboard and clipboard controls during a session.

Find your Mac

Add Mac finds nearby Screen Sharing computers and offers a short setup guide. Unsaved connection edits are protected, and connection-only profiles can be saved without storing passwords.

Clearer session controls

Zoom, keyboard, clipboard and other controls are grouped in a simpler toolbar. Copy and Paste have clear help and reflect whether the action is available.

Taps respond immediately, and press-and-hold dragging moves Mac items. Connection and input work stay off the main thread.

Clipboard and reconnection fixes

Clipboard transfers stay ordered, traditional Mac text decodes correctly and active credentials remain available while reconnecting. The update also corrects Unicode typing, large encrypted clipboard transfers and cursor display.

Otherdesk connects to a Mac with Screen Sharing enabled on the same local network.
