Notes on Beam, working across several Macs, and what we are building.
-
Can another Mac open the Lock Screen?
Prepare and test trusted Mac-to-Mac access before leaving, with clear checks for the Lock Screen, sleep, restart, FileVault, and privacy.
-
Bring one Mac window onto another Mac
Beam puts one Mac app window on another Mac at its own size, with direct input, crisp text, optional audio, and its own Dock icon.
-
Your windows go straight between your Macs
Your Macs talk to each other directly on your own network, or over your tailnet when they are apart. Your account knows your Macs and your plan, never what is on them. This is what leaves a Mac when you use Beam, and what does not.
