Upcoming
On the roadmap
What's next
We are just getting started. Here is a peek at what we are working on — because you deserve to know where this is going.
All hosts
All clients
On the roadmap
- True 4:4:4 color — now live from NVIDIA PCs to Mac (more pairs on the way)
- Two-way file transfer
- Deeper controller support
- Built for people. Ready for agents.
iOS Client v2.2.6
2026-07-22
Your finger, back in control
A touch-input regression on iOS 18 could leave the picture live and the keyboard typing while nothing you tapped or swiped reached your computer. Touch and pointer control now work the same way on every supported iOS version.
iOS Client
Fixed
- Touch control works again on iOS 18 — On iPhones and iPads still running iOS 18, swiping on the screen didn't move the pointer at all: the picture was live and the keyboard still typed, but nothing you did with your finger or a connected mouse reached your computer.
Android Client v2.2.6
2026-07-21
Pairing that finally sticks
Some Android devices got stuck on "Pairing Removed" for good, and scanning the QR code or typing the PIN again didn't help. Re-pairing now reliably restores the connection, every time.
Android Client
Fixed
- Fixed "Pairing Removed" that wouldn't go away — Android devices could be told they were no longer paired with the computer, and pairing again with the QR code or PIN didn't help. Pairing now works reliably, and re-pairing always restores the connection.
macOS Host v2.2.5
2026-07-20
Stays online when it matters
Three quiet annoyances, gone: connections that silently died on certain networks, an update screen that could get stuck for good, and a permission button that looked broken the moment you needed it most.
macOS Host
Fixed
- No more silent shutdowns on connect — On certain internet connections, Remio Host could silently close every time a device tried to connect, with no error and no crash report. The host now rides out these network resets and connects normally.
- "Update Required" no longer gets stuck — Once Remio Host had asked you to update, it could stay locked on that screen even after the requirement was lifted. It now returns to normal on its own.
- The "Grant Access" button always takes you somewhere — Clicking Grant Access a second time used to appear to do nothing. It now opens the exact System Settings page you need, every time.
Windows Host v2.2.5
2026-07-20
Control that gets through, color that's exact
Administrator windows used to swallow every click and keystroke sent from your phone — that's fixed, alongside the most common crash on Windows PCs. And on NVIDIA-powered PCs, a new toggle streams pixel-exact 4:4:4 color to your Mac, so colored text renders as crisp as sitting at the desk.
Windows Host
Mac Client
Added
- True 4:4:4 color is here — Flip one switch and an NVIDIA-powered PC streams pixel-exact color to your Mac. Colored code themes and fine text render as crisp as sitting at the desk.
- Control keeps working over administrator windows — An installer, Task Manager, or any UAC-elevated app used to silently throw away every click and keystroke sent from your phone or tablet. Remio Host now sends your input through even in those windows.
Improved
- Full quality on cloud and rented PCs — Machines that refuse Remio's adaptive display no longer sink into a choppy half-rate mode; the Host now streams the real screen at full speed and native resolution.
Fixed
- Fixed the most common crash on Windows PCs — A timing problem at video startup could crash Remio Host and knock the PC offline. This was behind the majority of recent crash reports.
- PCs with a broken graphics driver now stream instead of saying "Offline" — Those PCs now stream using software video, and when streaming genuinely isn't possible, the Host says so plainly instead of blaming your connection.
- Fixed a stream stuck at one frame per second — A stalled graphics driver could leave the picture crawling as a slideshow. Remio now recovers from that too, not just a fully frozen picture.
Linux Host v1.1.0–1.1.3
2026-07-20
Wayland, done right
Screen sharing on Wayland — the default session on modern Ubuntu, Fedora, and most current Linux desktops — went from unsupported to a clear, one-time setup step. Approve the share prompt once and Remio remembers your choice for good.
Linux Host
Added
- Wayland support — Remio Host now shares your screen on Wayland using the system's own secure screen-sharing service. Xorg desktops keep working exactly as before, and remote mouse and keyboard control work on both.
Fixed
- Granting permission now actually sticks — Screen sharing could fail right after you granted permission, showing "needs setup" again and streaming black. The Host now works with your system's own screen-sharing stack, so granting once just works.
v0.5.0-beta
2026-02-09
The foundation
This is the one. After months of closed development, Remio opens its doors. The first public beta ships with the macOS Host and iOS Client — a full remote desktop experience that feels like the future.
macOS Host
iOS Client
Added
- First public beta — available for everyone to try.
- macOS Host app — install on your Mac and stream from anywhere.
- iOS Client app — full remote control from your iPhone or iPad.
- PIN pairing — connect devices with a simple six-digit code, no accounts needed.
- Touch-to-input mapping — natural touch gestures translated to desktop interactions.
Improved
- Direct device-to-device streaming — your Mac talks straight to your iPhone or iPad. Minimal latency, no middlemen.
- Hardware-accelerated encoding — Apple Silicon does the heavy lifting for butter-smooth capture.
v0.4.0-alpha
2026-01-15
Going native
We made a hard call. We threw away the old cross-platform shell and rebuilt Remio as a real Mac app and a real iPhone app. It hurt. The result was 3x the performance and an experience we are finally proud of.
macOS Host
iOS Client
Mac Client
Added
- 100 percent native apps — Made for Mac, Made for iPhone and iPad, from the ground up.
- New streaming engine — completely redesigned for smoother, snappier video.
- Redesigned pairing flow — smoother, faster device connection.
Improved
- 3x faster frame delivery — no more cross-platform overhead between you and the screen.
- 50 percent lower memory usage — lean, purpose-built for each device.
- Instant app launch — cold start under 500 ms.
v0.3.0-alpha
2025-12-10
The protocol
The invisible backbone that makes everything possible. We built Remio's own way of moving data between devices — fast, lean, and extensible enough to carry the project for years. Plus crystal-clear audio and smarter video.
macOS Host
iOS Client
Added
- Audio streaming — low-latency, high-fidelity audio from your remote machine.
- Multi-codec support — H.264 for compatibility, H.265 for sharper picture at half the bandwidth.
- Adaptive bitrate — quality adjusts automatically to network conditions.
Improved
- Frames arrive faster — no parsing overhead between the wire and the screen.
- Lean data format cuts bandwidth use by roughly 40 percent.
v0.2.0-alpha
2025-11-04
First light
The moment we will never forget — seeing a remote screen appear on a phone for the first time. Laggy. Ugly. But it worked. This was the moment Remio became real.
macOS Host
iOS Client
Added
- Basic screen capture — first working version of desktop-to-device streaming.
- First successful remote connection — two devices, one dream.
- Connection server — Remio's own service for helping devices find each other.
- Smart network routing so devices can reach each other through tricky networks.
- Live screen capture, the way macOS intends it.
v0.1.0
2025-10-01
Day one
Every product starts with a question. Ours was: why does every remote desktop tool feel like it was built in 2005? So we opened Xcode, created a new project, and started building the answer. No funding, no team — just conviction.
macOS Host
Added
- Project inception — first commit, first dream.
- Architecture design — host and client apps with a direct device-to-device link.
- Proof of concept — validated that low-latency streaming is achievable on Apple Silicon.
- Built native on Apple from day one, with our own connection server.
