Mirror, control,
and manage your
Android
from your Mac.
Xync is a beautiful, native macOS app that brings your Android phone to your desktop — wirelessly. Mirror your screen, sync your clipboard, transfer files, and launch Samsung DeX, all without touching a terminal.
Features
Everything your phone does,
now on your Mac.
Designed entirely in Swift and SwiftUI for native performance. No clunky Java wrappers. No terminal. Just your phone — but elegant.
Mirror your Android in stunning quality.
Low-latency USB mirroring for gaming, or zero-cable Wi-Fi for everyday flow. A built-in Connection Wizard handles TCP/IP setup in seconds.
Launch a full desktop, not just a phone.
For supported Samsung devices, Xync boots straight into the DeX desktop environment — a full Android workstation inside a window on your Mac.
Paste from Mac to phone.
One click sends your Mac's clipboard text to your phone as keyboard input.
Browse phone files. Natively.
Copy, cut, paste, delete — even auto-jump into SD card storage. Finder-like, finally.
Drag a file. Done.
Push files from your Mac to Android without cables or third-party apps.
Quick actions, one click away.
Mirror, Files, Send Clip, Upload — surfaced right from your macOS menu bar. Hide the dock icon, work distraction-free.
Use your phone's camera as a webcam.
Tap into your Android's high-quality rear or front sensors — directly inside macOS apps.
Built in Swift. Feels like Finder.
100% Swift / SwiftUI. Adheres to macOS design paradigms — vibrancy, sidebar layouts, menu-bar agents, and full Retina output. No Electron. No bloat.
Plug in. Play games. Lossless.
When latency matters most, switch to USB for high-FPS, low-latency mirroring — ideal for mobile gaming, screen recording, and intensive workflows.
A closer look
Built for the way Mac feels.
Every surface, transition, and pixel respects macOS conventions — because consistency is what makes great software disappear.

Get started
Four steps. No terminal.
Xync's built-in Setup Wizard auto-downloads and
configures scrcpy and
adb on first launch.
-
01
Download the .dmg
Grab the latest Xync release straight from GitHub. Free, open-source, Apache-2.0 licensed.
-
02
Drag to Applications
Standard macOS install. On first launch you may need to choose Open Anyway in Privacy & Security — the app isn't yet signed with a paid Developer certificate.
-
03
Enable USB Debugging on Android
Tap Build Number 7 times → Developer Options → enable USB Debugging. Connect once via USB and accept the prompt on your phone.
-
04
Go wireless. Forever.
Use the Connection Wizard once, set a Static IP on your phone, and from then on connect cable-free from Saved Devices.
Pro tip
Set a Static IP on your phone for 1-click reconnects.
Android → Wi-Fi Settings → tap the gear icon next to your network → change IP settings from DHCP to Static. Run the Wizard one final time and never plug the cable in again.
FAQ
Questions,
answered.
No. On first launch, Xync's built-in Setup Wizard automatically downloads and configures both scrcpy and adb in the background. You never need to touch a terminal.
Xync targets macOS 26 (Tahoe). It runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs.
Xync is open-source and not yet signed with a paid Apple Developer certificate. On first launch, open System Settings → Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway. Subsequent launches will work normally.
Yes — your Mac and Android device must be on the exact same Wi-Fi network. We recommend setting a Static IP on your phone for instant 1-click reconnects from the Saved Devices list.
DeX requires a Samsung device that supports it (most flagship Galaxy phones from S8 onward). On unsupported models, Xync falls back to standard mirroring.
Xync is 100% free and open-source under the Apache 2.0 License. Source code is on GitHub — contributions, issues, and stars are very welcome.
Yes. Push files from Mac to Android with one click, and use the File Explorer to download files from your phone to your Mac with full copy/cut/paste/delete support.
No. Xync is built natively in Swift and SwiftUI — it uses a fraction of the resources of Electron-based alternatives and idles essentially at zero CPU.
