Remio comes in two parts.

The Host runs on the computer you want to reach. The Client runs on the device in your hand. Install both, scan a QR code, and you're in.

Step 1 · Remio Host

On the computer you want to control

The Host shares the screen and takes your input. Install it on the Mac, Windows PC, or Linux machine you'll be connecting to.

On Linux: make the AppImage executable (chmod +x) and run it — works on Ubuntu 22.04+, Debian 12+, Fedora 36+, Arch and most others. Debian/Ubuntu users can grab the .deb under Power users below.

winget winget install Remio.RemioHost

If Windows shows "Windows protected your PC": click More infoRun anyway. We are a small team and Microsoft's reputation system requires expensive certificates to skip that screen — we are on the path. Your download is signed end-to-end so auto-updates can verify it came from us. The winget command above skips the warning entirely.

Linux .deb (Ubuntu 24.04+): prefer a package manager over the AppImage? Download the .deb and install with sudo apt install ./Remio-Host-Linux-amd64.deb — it registers a background service and a desktop launcher, and uninstalls cleanly with apt. On Ubuntu 22.04, Debian, and every other distro, use the AppImage above.

The same computer can run both Host and Client — handy for testing. macOS v2.2.5 release notes →  ·  Windows v2.2.5 release notes →  ·  Linux v1.1.3 release notes →  ·  All versions →

Quick start

Up and running in under a minute.

01

Download and install

Download the Remio Host installer for macOS, Windows, or Linux. Double-click to install — no dragging, no setup wizards.

02

Scan and pair

Open Remio on your phone or tablet and scan the QR code on the host. Pairing happens instantly, encrypted end-to-end with a 4-digit PIN as the second factor.

Full desktop streaming at up to 4K 60 fps. Touch, keyboard, mouse, gamepad — everything just works.

System requirements

Runs on what you already have.

Remio is lightweight by design — if your device was made in the last few years, you're good. Any Wi-Fi or LAN works; 5 Mbps is enough, 20+ recommended for 4K 60 fps.
