Clipboard, Files, SMS, Notifications & more.
One-time purchase · No subscription · Free updates for life
Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.
The Relay bridges the gap between Android and Mac with features that just work. No compromises.
Clipboard Sync
Copy on your Android, paste on your Mac. Copy on your Mac, paste on your Android. Text, images, URLs. Seamless, instant, bidirectional.
File Transfer
Send files between your devices at full local network speed. No file size limits, no cloud upload. Your files never leave your network.
Notifications on Mac
Every Android notification appears natively on your Mac. Read, dismiss, or act on them without picking up your phone.
URL Handoff
Share a URL on your phone, it opens on your Mac browser. Share from Mac, it opens on Android. One tap, no more emailing links to yourself.
Zero Cloud. 100% Local.
Everything stays local, over WiFi or Bluetooth. No servers, no accounts, no data collection. End-to-end encrypted between your own devices.
OTPs in 1-Click
OTP arrives on your phone, appears on your Mac, copied to clipboard. One click and you're in. No more squinting at your phone mid-login.
Phone as Webcam & Mic
Use your Android phone's camera as a virtual webcam in Zoom, Meet, or FaceTime. Use the phone mic as your Mac's microphone. No extra hardware needed.
Always On. Light on Resources.
Multi-layer architecture keeps your devices connected over WiFi, Bluetooth Low Energy, or both. Minimal footprint on battery and memory. Runs quietly in the background.
Not yet another useless app.
Most Android-to-Mac solutions are dead, Windows-only, or route your data through the cloud. Here's where The Relay stands.
