Summary

Sidekick Display does not collect any data. There are no accounts, no analytics and no servers.

What happens on your devices

The picture from your Mac and your touches on the iPhone travel directly between your iPhone and your Mac, over the USB cable or your local network. Nothing is sent to us or to anyone else, and nothing is recorded.

Settings such as display size and frame rate are stored on your device.

Permissions

  • Local Network (iPhone): so your Mac can find your iPhone.
  • Screen Recording (Mac): to send your Mac's picture to the iPhone.
  • Accessibility (Mac): to turn your touches into clicks, drags and scrolls.

These are used only for that, and only while the display is running.

Purchases

Sidekick Display Pro is bought through Apple's In-App Purchase. Apple handles payment; we don't see your payment details.
