PhoneDeck is a productivity tool that transforms an iPhone into a wireless, customizable controller for macOS. It acts as an affordable alternative to hardware macro pads, allowing users to launch apps, trigger system controls, and open websites with a single tap on their phone screen. Operating over local WiFi with no subscription or account requirement, it is designed for users who want to streamline their desktop workflows without additional hardware costs.
PhoneDeck was created in 2026 by a solo developer, Vansh Parihar, who built the tool in just seven days to address his own need for a Stream Deck-like experience without the high price tag. Recognizing that many Mac users already own the necessary 'hardware' in their pockets, he launched it as a free, private, and simple utility.
