Private nearby video

See the screen, not the angle.

Monitor Mirror privately shares a perspective-corrected view of an angled monitor between two nearby Apple devices. An iPhone captures; an iPad gives you the clear view.

One scan. One private view.

The iPad creates a short-lived pairing code. The iPhone scans it, corrects the camera perspective, and sends low-latency H.264 video over an authenticated encrypted nearby connection.

01 / PAIR

Start on the iPad

Choose View Monitor. The iPad displays a private pairing code that expires after two minutes.

02 / FRAME

Set the iPhone beside the monitor

Scan once, frame the screen, then lock the detected corners. Perspective correction removes the viewing angle.

03 / VIEW

Share nearby

The corrected view streams directly to the iPad using Apple-native H.264. Stop Sharing tears down the entire session.

Nearby by design

The room is the boundary.

Monitor Mirror has no account system, server, cloud relay, internet dependency, frame storage, or analytics. Pairing uses a short-lived QR secret, and only one authenticated nearby connection is accepted.
