MacMirror: Android to Mac

MacMirror bridges your Android smartphone and your Mac with unmatched elegance, speed, and privacy. Stream incoming notifications directly to your macOS menu bar in real time—without relying on third-party cloud servers or external accounts.

IMPORTANT REQUIREMENT:
MacMirror for Android is the companion app to MacMirror for macOS. To receive notifications, you must install and run the MacMirror menu bar companion app on your Mac connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

100% PRIVATE, LOCAL & ZERO-CLOUD
Unlike standard push notification services, MacMirror operates strictly within your local Wi-Fi network. Your personal alerts, messages, and calls never pass through cloud servers or third-party databases.

MILITARY-GRADE END-TO-END ENCRYPTION (E2EE)
Security is built into MacMirror by design:
• Ephemeral ECDH (Curve P-256) cryptographic key agreement during pairing.
• HKDF-SHA256 session key derivation.
• AES-256-GCM authenticated payload encryption.
• Hardware-backed key protection using Android KeyStore.

SEAMLESS PAIRING WITH ZERO CONFIGURATION
No complicated IP setups required. MacMirror uses Bonjour (mDNS) to automatically discover your Mac on the local network. Simply enter the 6-digit PIN displayed in your Mac's menu bar to establish an encrypted, paired connection in seconds.

GRANULAR PER-APP NOTIFICATION CONTROL
You decide what reaches your desktop. Enable or disable mirroring on a per-application basis:
• Instant search across all installed apps.
• One-tap "Select All" or "Select None" filters.
• Fast asynchronous app icon caching for smooth scrolling.

ULTRA-LOW LATENCY WITH WEBSOCKETS
Built with persistent, lightweight WebSockets for sub-second notification delivery. When battery saving is prioritized, MacMirror seamlessly adapts to efficient HTTP mode.

SMART WI-FI AWARENESS & DIAGNOSTICS
Never guess connection status. MacMirror instantly detects when Wi-Fi is turned off and displays quick-action shortcuts to reconnect your network, alongside an interactive 8-step delivery diagnostic pipeline.

ELEGANT NATIVE DESIGN
Crafted with Jetpack Compose following Apple Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) Inset-Grouped cards and Material You accents. Enjoy fluid transitions, high contrast, and full Dark Mode support.
