Install it on the computer that will present.
The installer is for that machine. There is no App Store listing for the phone.
What you download
macOS gets a .dmg. Windows gets a setup .exe. Drag Pilot into Applications on a Mac. On Windows, run the installer. Unsigned builds will warn until the first signed release exists. That warning is the operating system, not a broken file.
What you do not download
The phone remote is a page the desktop serves after a session starts. Installing a store app would not remove the need for the computer, and it would not make pairing faster.
After it is installed
- Open Pilot, then open the deck.
- Start a session. Pilot shows a code and a six-digit PIN.
- Join the same Wi‑Fi on the phone. Scan, or type the PIN.
- On a Mac, allow Accessibility when asked. Windows does not ask.
After the first public release, open Pilot and it can tell you when a new computer app is available. That check uses the internet. Pairing does not. The phone still does not get an app. macOS notes · Windows notes
