Estimated revenue

A model estimate with a likely range, not a reported figure.

No estimate. Apps outside the grossing charts, and some countries, have no reliable rank-to-revenue curve, so we show nothing rather than a guess.

How this estimate is made

Rank: we take the app's best Top Grossing rank on the latest chart day. Category ranks are converted into an equivalent overall rank, because a #10 in Finance earns far less than a #10 overall.

Curve: that equivalent rank is read off a rank-to-revenue curve anchored on public company revenue and market-data reports for the US iPhone App Store.

Country: the curve is scaled per country (Japan is roughly a third of the US, Türkiye under 1%). Where we have no scale, such as China, there is no estimate.

Range: the likely range widens with country, category and chart depth. It is a plausible span, not a statistical confidence interval.

Not included: ads, payments outside the App Store, and any difference between gross sales and what the developer keeps. Low confidence means indirect data; medium means several independent sources agree.

About this app

Text from the App Store listing.

The fastest way to control your Mac from your iPhone or iPad.

Macky gives you instant, zero-config access to your Mac's screen and pseudo-terminal (PTY) with sub-50ms latency. No SSH port forwarding, no VPN daemons, and no network configuration required.

TERMINAL MODE

  • Run commands, manage background jobs, edit files in vim or nano, and monitor AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Aider) in real-time.
  • Full pseudo-terminal (PTY) shell connected directly to Zsh/Bash
  • Developer touch keyboard with Tab, Esc, Ctrl, arrow keys, and modifiers
  • Voice input and smart clipboard syncing for fast mobile typing

SCREEN MODE

  • View and control your Mac's desktop with fluid, high-framerate streaming.
  • Check localhost:3000 web builds, Xcode simulators, and background tasks
  • Smooth trackpad gestures, clicking, scrolling, and dragging
  • Retina resolution support

HOW IT WORKS (ZERO SSH / VPN PAIN)
Traditional remote tools require open ports, dynamic DNS, WireGuard/Tailscale VPN configuration, and SSH key management.

Macky connects your iPhone directly to your Mac over WebRTC with DTLS-SRTP end-to-end encryption. Your terminal and screen data travel peer-to-peer and never touch third-party servers.

PERFECT FOR:

  • Developers running Claude Code, Docker builds, or long scripts on the go
  • Checking localhost web apps or Xcode builds away from your desk
  • Remote Mac server & Mac Mini homelab management
  • Anyone looking for a lightweight, zero-setup alternative to TeamViewer, AnyDesk, or Jump Desktop

WHY MACKY?

  • Zero setup: no port forwarding, no firewall config, no static IP
  • Direct peer-to-peer connection over WebRTC
  • End-to-end encrypted with local master password protection
  • Seamless switching between Wi-Fi and 5G cellular
  • Lifetime Pro: one-time purchase, zero subscriptions
