DeckPilot - Workflow Control
Workflows, Macros & Shortcuts
Free · In-App Purchases
Every button does more now. Double-tap or hold for a second action, pop open a submenu, and feel a real mechanical click on every press.
Made for people who care about how they work with their Mac.
You know how the keyboard, mouse, and trackpad shape the way you reach into your Mac? Turns out there's another way. DeckPilot turns your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch into custom button decks that follow whichever app you're in. Logic, Xcode, Figma, Slack: the right buttons are always under your thumb.
Quick to set up
Install on your Mac and iPhone, connect once over Wi-Fi or USB. Auto-reconnects the way AirDrop does. No hardware to buy.
Buttons for everything
Tap to open Figma. Tap to mute Zoom. Tap to fire a 5-step macro. Tap to start your morning playlist. Build them from apps, files, websites, keyboard shortcuts, AppleScript, or Apple Shortcuts, and chain anything together in a visual macro builder. 300,000+ icons, or bring your own.
One button, more than one move
Tap for one thing, double-tap for another, hold for a third. Or hold to pop open a whole submenu of buttons from a single tile. One button can run your whole flow.
Buttons you can feel
Every press lands with a real mechanical click and a tactile thump. Pick the feel that suits you, from a crisp keyboard to a soft, heavy thock, with sound and haptics you can tune separately.
Every workflow its own look
A teal gradient and big icons for your DAW. A tight grid with greyscale icons for your code editor. Pick from the community gallery or design your own. Logic feels like Logic, Xcode like Xcode. Your Touch Bar even matches what's on screen.
Buttons that already know
A red mic pill on your Zoom button when you're muted. A live waveform on Spotify when it's playing. A small jiggle on Slack when a new DM lands. You stop checking your Mac, because the buttons already know.
Keep your favorites close
Pin the decks you live in and they stay a swipe away, whatever app you're in.
Trackpad gestures you know
Two fingers down to minimize the app you're in. Two fingers up to maximize. Three fingers across to switch spaces. Or bind any swipe to almost anything: Apple Shortcuts, AppleScript, macros, jumping decks.
Touch Bar, reborn
Apple's Touch Bar is gone. DeckPilot brings it back as a floating glass strip on your phone. Volume, brightness, media, mic mute, and a clock, colored to match each deck.
Widgets on every screen
Home Screen widgets put your top buttons one tap from anywhere. The Lock Screen widget shows your active deck without unlocking, and joins iOS 17+ StandBy mode when your iPhone's on a charger, so your bedside table becomes a quiet Mac dashboard.
On your wrist, too
A dedicated Apple Watch deck with multiple pages and real app icons. Digital Crown for volume and brightness. Complications for one-tap Mute and Play/Pause right from your watch face.
Built-in MIDI for any DAW
Faders, knobs, XY pads, velocity pads, and transport for Logic Pro, GarageBand, Ableton Live, FL Studio, and anything that speaks MIDI.
Also good
- Built-in AppleScript editor with ten dark themes
- Auto-lock and OLED-safe auto-dim after a short idle
- Share .deckpacks with friends, browse community templates, try Demo Mode without pairing
- Privacy-first. Commands stay on your Wi-Fi, nothing leaves your network
Made for developers, designers, streamers, musicians, and anyone who'd like a faster way to drive their Mac.

One button can do a lot more now.
More in every button
Tap for one thing, double-tap for another, hold for a third. Or hold to pop open a whole submenu of buttons from a single tile. One button can run your whole flow.
Buttons you can feel
Every press now lands with a real mechanical click and a tactile thump. Four feels to pick from, from a crisp keyboard to a soft, heavy thock, with sound and haptics you can tune separately.
Keep your favorites close
Pin the decks you live in. Multiple pinned decks stay a swipe away, whatever app you're in.
A cleaner way around
Switch decks, Macs, and settings from one slide-in side menu instead of the top bar. Little badges show which buttons hide a double-tap or long-press, so you remember what's where.
Your deck also locks itself after a while idle, so a glance at your phone never fires a button by accident.
Plus steadier reconnection and a smoother feel throughout.
Requires DeckPilot for Mac 1.3 or later. Open DeckPilot on your Mac and choose Check for Updates to get it.
