Summary

A 19-year-old independent developer built an app with Swift that turns a phone into a Mac trackpad and keyboard, enabling remote computer control with high smoothness and solving a real pain point.

https://x.com/r1cA18/status/2058147911767347476/video/1… amazing! Projects I build because I need them myself are always the most touching. Using your phone directly as a Mac trackpad and keyboard — controlling your computer remotely to watch YouTube while lying in bed or when you're sick and don't feel like moving. That pain point is so spot-on. It’s not some grand narrative product, but you can tell the author has actually been in that situation. What’s even crazier is that the author is only 19 years old, developing independently in Swift, and the smoothness is this good. It’s way more solid than a bunch of AI projects claiming to change the world.

Turning your phone into a Mac trackpad and keyboard, controlling your computer from bed when you’re sick and too tired to move—just to watch YouTube. That pain point is so spot on. It’s not some grand narrative product, but you can tell the creator has actually been in that exact situation.

What’s even crazier is that the author is only 19, developing in Swift independently, and the smoothness is already this high. So much more grounded than all those AI projects claiming to change the world.

リカ (@r1cA18): I made a trackpad that lets you do everything—mouse control and keyboard input on your PC—all from your phone!!!
