Open the remote deck

  1. 01

    Scan the pairing QR

    Use the tablet or phone camera to scan the QR code in the console. It opens a token-protected /deck address containing the pairing and, when available, the selected cloud deck.

  2. 02

    Wait for the paired state

    The onboarding card changes to the deck when it receives Mac context. If it says expired, create and scan a new pairing.

    The remote confirms when it can reach the paired Mac.

Install on iPad or iPhone

  1. 01

    Use Add to Home Screen

    In Safari, tap Share → Add to Home Screen. Leave Open as Web App enabled, then choose Add.

  2. 02

    Open the new icon once

    Launch Cueboard from its Home Screen icon. Apple keeps installed-web-app storage separate from Safari, so scan the QR or enter pairing details again inside the installed app if needed.

  3. 03

    Know what persists

    The pairing and cloud-deck credentials stay in that installed app until its website data is cleared. Internet access and the running Mac companion are still required for remote actions.

Install on Android

  1. 01

    Install from the browser menu

    Open the paired deck in Chrome, choose Install app or Add to Home screen, then launch Cueboard from the new icon.
