About this app

Turn your Android phone or tablet into a wireless macro pad and control deck for your PC. Macro Deck Companion is the official native app for Macro Deck 3, the free, open source macro software for Windows, macOS and Linux. Run macros, trigger hotkeys, control OBS and your stream, switch scenes, manage audio and launch apps with one tap on customizable buttons.

A NATIVE DECK, NOT A WEBSITE
Macro Deck Companion draws your deck natively instead of wrapping a browser. Every button, folder, profile, icon, font and animation looks exactly like it does in Macro Deck, but responds faster, with smooth touch input and haptic feedback on every press. Tap, long press and double tap each run their own action.

CONNECT IN SECONDS
- Automatic discovery finds Macro Deck on your local network
- Scan the QR code shown by Macro Deck to pair instantly
- Add a connection manually by IP address and port
- Connect over USB, no Wi-Fi needed
- Wake your computer with Wake-on-LAN before you connect
- Sign in once, your session is stored securely on the device

MULTIPLE COMPUTERS, ONE APP
Save several Macro Deck hosts and keep them open at the same time. Control your gaming PC, your streaming PC and your work laptop from one phone, and see at a glance which ones are online. Choose which connection opens automatically when you launch the app.

FAST GESTURE NAVIGATION
- Swipe with one finger to move between folders
- Swipe up or down to go into a folder or back out
- Swipe with two fingers to switch profiles
- Swipe with three fingers to jump to another computer

THE PERFECT STREAMING CONTROLLER
Use your old phone or tablet as a dedicated stream controller and button box on your desk. Start and stop recording, switch scenes, mute your microphone, play sounds, post to chat, control music and media, and run multi-step automations while you stay live. Great for streamers, content creators, gamers, video editors, developers and anyone who wants a custom macro keyboard for productivity.

YOUR DEVICE, PART OF YOUR SETUP
Macro Deck sees your phone as a real device. It shows the battery level, charging state, orientation and brightness, so you can use them in your own macros. With your permission, your computer can also:
- Set the screen brightness and orientation
- Vibrate the device
- Turn the screen on or off
- Bring the deck to the front
- Take a screenshot

MADE FOR DAILY USE
- Background connection keeps your decks ready
- Keep the screen on while a deck is open
- Built-in screensaver support
- Light and dark theme
- Material design that feels at home on Android
- Works on phones and tablets, in portrait and landscape
- Supports Android 6.0 and newer

DIRECT CONNECTION TO YOUR COMPUTER
Your deck talks directly to Macro Deck on your own computer, over your local network or USB. Button presses never take a detour through a remote server, which keeps every action fast and reliable.

HOW TO GET STARTED

3. Pick your computer from the list or scan its QR code

ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE (OPTIONAL)
Macro Deck Companion uses the Android AccessibilityService API only to turn the screen off and take a full-screen screenshot when your connected computer asks. Screenshots go only to that computer, never to us. The service reads no screen content. It stays off until you agree in the app, and you can turn it off at any time. This app is not an accessibility tool.
