DeckPilot - Workflow Control
Workflows, Macros & Shortcuts
Free · In-App Purchases
Your Mac's clipboard now lives on your phone: searchable, pinnable, one tap to paste back. Every button still does more with double-tap, hold, and submenus.
Made for people who care about how they work with their Mac.
The keyboard, mouse, and trackpad shape how you reach into your Mac. 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. 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, from a crisp keyboard to a soft, heavy thock, with sound and haptics you tune separately.
Your Mac's clipboard, on your phone
Everything you copy on your Mac lands in a searchable history on your phone. Pin what you reuse, see when you copied it, and send any snippet back to your Mac with a tap. Images come through full-size.
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.
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. 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, two up to maximize, three 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, a clock, and live Battery, CPU, and Memory readouts, 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 on a charger.
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.
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

Made for developers, designers, streamers, and musicians who want a faster way to drive their Mac.

Your Mac's clipboard, now on your phone.
Clipboard, mirrored to your phone
Everything you copy on your Mac lands in a searchable history on your iPhone. Pin the snippets you reuse, see when you copied each one, and send any of them back to your Mac with a tap. Images come through full-size in a clean, scrollable layout.
Battery, CPU, and Memory on your Touch Bar
Drop live system readouts straight into your global Touch Bar, so the numbers you keep an eye on are one glance away on every deck.
Steadier on the newest iOS and macOS
If the Local Network permission is blocking the connection, DeckPilot now spots it and takes you straight to the setting that fixes it. When a deck is slow to arrive it retries on its own and tells you what's happening, instead of spinning on "Waiting for deck" forever.
Also in this update
- Your deck fills the screen again the moment you unlock, no rotate needed
- Recent Apps loads reliably again with the latest Mac app
- Fixed a rare crash tied to haptics when reopening the app
- Smoother, steadier reconnection throughout
Requires DeckPilot for Mac 1.5.6 or later for Recent Apps and the newest fixes. Open DeckPilot on your Mac and choose Check for Updates to get it.
