iPhone remote, from anywhere

Control your Mac's sleep
from your iPhone.

Awake Qubit keeps your Mac awake when you need it to be, and lets it sleep when you don't. Set sleep timers from your iPhone, get notified when a session ends, and respond in one tap. No remote desktop. No walking back to your desk.

No settings pages. No dashboards. Just the controls that matter, exactly when you need them.

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Control from anywhere

Set your Mac's sleep timer from your iPhone, whether you're in another room or across the building. No remote desktop required.

Know when it ends

Get a notification the moment your session ends, or the app you're watching quits. Respond in one tap to keep it awake or let it sleep, without touching your Mac.

Natural to control

Override for a fixed duration or until a specific time. Set it and forget it. It clears automatically when done.

Designed to get out of your way

No dashboards, no settings rabbit holes. One glance tells you everything. One tap does the thing. That's the whole app.

Set sleep timers from your iPhone

Starting a long render and heading out? Open Awake Qubit on your iPhone and keep your Mac awake for exactly as long as you need, from anywhere. No remote desktop, no VPN, no walking back to your desk.

Full control on your Mac too

Timed sessions, fully visible (free)

Capable without feeling crowded.

Awake Qubit is more than a caffeine toggle: iPhone remote control, remote screen lock, notifications, Smart Pause, app-based sessions, battery-aware stops, safety alerts, recent sessions, history, and diagnostics are all built around real workflows.

The security story stays simple too: no account, no remote desktop, and sync through your Apple account — your sessions live in your iCloud, not on our servers. The UI still stays small enough to understand at a glance.

More reach, more reassurance

Upgrades that make walking away from your Mac calmer and clearer.

Awake Qubit Pro

Lock your Mac from your iPhone

Step away and lock the Mac's screen from your phone. The session keeps running, the screen stays private. It locks a Mac that is awake with the app running, not a sleeping one.

Awake Qubit Pro

Smarter alerts about your session

Battery-trend and thermal context layered on top of the free safety warnings, each with a one-tap action. The insight layer for longer sessions.

Free

Safety alerts for everyone

During a session, get warned on your Mac and iPhone if it overheats, the battery runs critically low, or the disk fills up. A hardware-safety warning should never sit behind a paywall.

Free on Mac

Keep your Mac active, not just awake

An optional cursor nudge keeps the pointer moving for apps that treat a still pointer as idle. Free on the Mac, and no permission to grant.

Free

Your Mac's status at a glance

One tappable pill on the iPhone shows connected, asleep, reconnecting, or unreachable, with lid and lock cues. Tap it for battery, what is running, and lock state.

Free

Your devices stay honest

If iCloud sync ever gets stuck, your Mac now notices, shows you how to fix it, and stops your Mac and iPhone from telling opposite stories. Your session keeps running throughout.

Simple, honest pricing

The essentials are free. Pro adds smarter automation for longer-running workflows.
