Features

Every Android feature, where you actually work.

iPhone-Mirroring UX

Rounded phone bezel, auto-hiding chrome, a HUD-style overlay bar — built to feel as native as Apple's own.

Hardware-accelerated

VideoToolbox decodes H.265 directly on Apple Silicon. Metal renders. Sub-80ms end-to-end latency.

Wired or wireless

USB plug-and-go, or pair Android 11+ over Wi-Fi with a 6-digit code. mDNS discovery built in.

Finder for Android

Browse, search, and transfer device storage through an in-app file browser with image thumbnails.

Desktop Mode

Launch the device into a freeform virtual display — Samsung DeX, Pixel Desktop, or Android 14 freeform.

Two-way clipboard

Copy on the Mac, paste on the phone. And the other way around. Toggle off any time.

Swift 6 strict concurrency

Universal binary, sandbox-safe, no bundled CLI, no daemons. Just an .app.

Open source

Apache-2.0. Audit, fork, contribute. Same license as scrcpy and adb.

Why Droid Mirroring

The native app scrcpy deserved.

scrcpy is brilliant — but it's a Terminal tool with a barebones SDL window. We wrap its proven protocol in a real macOS app: Swift 6, sandbox-safe, Finder-integrated, and ergonomic enough for daily use.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is it really free?

Yes — Apache-2.0 licensed, same as the scrcpy and adb projects we build on. No telemetry, no upsells, no closed-source helpers.

Do I need to enable anything on the phone?

USB Debugging (Developer options → USB debugging) for wired use. For wireless, Android 11+'s Wireless Debugging toggle is enough. No root needed.

How is this different from scrcpy?

scrcpy is a CLI + minimal SDL window. We use its proven server jar over a native Swift protocol implementation, then wrap it in a real macOS app: phone-bezel window, auto-hide chrome, in-app Finder, settings UI, no Terminal.

Does it support DeX or freeform?

Yes. Desktop Mode launches the device into Samsung DeX on Samsung phones, or Android 14+ freeform on AOSP. Multi-window Fusion is on the roadmap.

What about foldables?

Tested on Galaxy Z Fold 7. The Mirror window tracks the active panel — fold to outer, unfold to inner — and re-aspects automatically.

Is audio supported?

Yes, Opus → AAC via AVAudioEngine. Toggle in Settings if you'd rather route audio through the phone speaker.

Will my data leave my Mac?

No. All traffic is local — over USB or your LAN. We never call home. The app is sandboxed.

How do I contribute?

Bugs and PRs welcome on GitHub. See CONTRIBUTING.md for the dev setup — xcodegen, Apple Silicon, macOS 15 SDK.
