A Window, Not a Mirror
The preview lives in its own resizable window that can stay above other apps. Your Mac display is yours; only the preview is shared.

Pot Glondach
Pot Glondach shows the live view of your iPhone camera in a small, resizable window on your Mac while the iPhone records. Pair once with a QR code, start a screen broadcast, open Camera — and keep working on the Mac with the preview pinned on top. Video travels over your own Wi-Fi with end-to-end TLS; nothing is uploaded and nothing is stored.
What it does
Wi-Fi or Personal Hotspot
Phone and Mac talk directly over the local network. No account, no relay server, no internet required.
Paired With a Code
Scan a QR code once. The pairing secret authenticates both ends with TLS, and a new code replaces it whenever you want.
Follows the Phone
Rotate the iPhone to landscape and the window levels itself and swaps shape. Lock the orientation manually when you prefer.
Stop From Either Side
End the broadcast from the Mac toolbar or the iPhone status bar. The window returns to the pairing screen, ready for the next take.
Updates Itself
The Mac app checks for signed updates and installs them in place, so it always matches the iPhone app from the App Store.
Built for One Job
Frame and monitor a shot on the Mac while the iPhone does the recording.
