Real workflows

Many workflows. One app.

Gamers, colourists, coders, and people who just want their desktop on the couch — all run the same install. There's no per-job edition. Pick the one that sounds like you.

What people actually do with Remio

Four workflows cover most of what Remio gets used for. Same app, same pairing PIN, no upgrade required.

Play

Competitive PC gaming

Stream Apex Legends, Elden Ring, and the rest of your PC library to iPad or Mac at sub-5 ms LAN input latency. DualSense and Xbox controllers pair natively — and unlike Moonlight, you don't need an Nvidia GPU.

Create

Colour-critical creative work

Edit DaVinci Resolve timelines and Photoshop comps from iPad with Apple Pencil. H.265 4:4:4 chroma keeps colour exact, and HDR passthrough preserves the full gamut on a Liquid Retina XDR display.

Access

Zero-trust remote access

Peer-to-peer connections, end-to-end encryption, and no central account database to breach. Pair a Mac, Windows 11, or Linux machine with a 4-digit PIN — no per-seat licence, no user table sitting on a server.

Thin laptop, heavy workstation

Connect from a MacBook Air to a tower running Maya, Blender, or Rhino with full GPU access. Nothing to install on the shared machine but the host app — the render horsepower stays where it belongs.

Same feel

It looks like your machine because it is your machine.

Whichever desk you sit at, Remio streams the real desktop — full resolution, real colour, real cursor. Your iPad becomes a window into the tower in the other room, not a watered-down mirror of it.

One pairing PIN. Every workflow above.

Three reasons all four chose the same app

Different desks, same requirements: it has to be fast, it has to be private, and it has to feel native.

Genuinely fast

Sub-5 ms input latency on a local network with hardware encode and decode. Fast enough to game on, precise enough to draw on.

No account, no leak

A 4-digit PIN pairs your devices directly. There's no central account database — nothing for anyone to breach, because it doesn't exist.

Native on every platform

SwiftUI, Jetpack Compose, and C++/WinRT — real native apps on each OS. No Electron, no browser wrapper, no lag tax.

Built for specific jobs, not just generic remote access

Each of these has its own guide, tuned to the tools and the network setup that job needs.

And every other desk

The same tool, wherever you work

Remio is a free indie app — not an enterprise platform. Here's how these audiences actually use it, honestly, with no compliance badges we can't back up.

Remote & hybrid work

Leave your desktop running at home and reach it from a laptop or tablet anywhere. Full apps, real files, no VPN gymnastics — just a 4-digit pair and you're in.

Freelancers

Keep the heavy tools on one machine and work from whatever device is nearby. No per-seat cost, no commercial-use nagging — free for professional use.

Helping family & friends

Pair once and, with the other person's consent, hop onto their Mac or PC to fix something. It's built for personal help, not managed fleets — there's no admin console or ticketing.

Students & learning

Reach the lab machine or your own desktop with the licensed software from an iPad in the library. Remio is a personal tool — it isn't a school-deployed platform with central management.

Finance & trading desks

Watch charts and manage a workstation running your trading tools from a second screen or on the move. Connections are end-to-end encrypted — though Remio carries no SOC 2 or SAML claims.

Accounting & bookkeeping

Run the desktop accounting suite on one machine and reach it from anywhere at close. It's a personal-scale tool — great for a solo practice, not a managed multi-tenant deployment.

General office & clinical desktops

Reach a workstation and the software installed on it from another room. Remio makes no HIPAA or BAA claims — treat it as a personal remote-desktop tool, not a compliance product.

Developers & ops

Drive a build box, a home lab, or a GPU server from a lightweight client. For the full engineering angle, see Remio for developers.
