Directly connected.
No cloud in between.

Your smartphone and your Mac communicate directly with each other.

There is no central cloud service storing, processing, or analysing your data. Your connection is encrypted and remains between your devices.

Direct.
Private.
Secure.

fingerprintPairing

Connected once.
Recognised every time.

When you pair your devices for the first time, your Mac and smartphone establish a trusted connection.

If your Mac's digital identity unexpectedly changes, the connection is automatically blocked.

That means your smartphone always knows exactly which device it is communicating with.

verified_userPermissions

You stay in control.

Styrhus works with the permissions of your Mac user account – nothing more, nothing less.

Plugins can add powerful capabilities, such as controlling other apps or running custom commands. That's why you decide which extensions are installed and activated.

No hidden installations.
No extensions running without your approval.

Styrhus on your smartphone

Your personal Mac dashboard – always within reach. Keep an eye on the information that matters, even when you're away from your Mac. Control features from your smartphone and make your dashboard truly yours.
