How to get Godot on your iPhone or iPad

  1. Open Godot on your Mac and install the free Apperture Mac host.
  2. Get Apperture on your iPhone or iPad, then pair with your Mac using its QR code.
  3. Connect to your Mac and choose the Godot window. Use landscape orientation for more room.

Can I use Godot on my iPhone or iPad with Apperture?

Yes — by streaming Godot from your Mac with Apperture. The desktop app runs on your Mac; your iPhone or iPad displays its window and sends remote input back. You need a reachable, awake Mac with Godot installed, the free Apperture Mac host, and the Apperture app on your iPhone or iPad.

Godot remains running on your Mac. Remote access helps with inspection and small changes; testing gameplay and input responsiveness is best done on the intended device. Godot product information.
