CouchDeck

Changelog

Update availability varies by platform and can sometimes differ by one or two versions.

Pro · Experimental

PC-to-PC control on your LAN

Use the mouse and keyboard on one PC to control another PC in a separate window.

Both PCs must have CouchDeck installed, and this feature must be explicitly enabled on the PC being controlled.

1.0.40

  • Fixed an issue where the orientation or zoom level of a landscape stream was reset after opening settings, saving, and returning.
  • Prevented the browser from selecting or dragging the stream image or opening a long-press menu on it. Text in input fields and file names can still be selected.
  • Fixed repeated disconnections caused by problems with virtual display selection and restoration.
  • Added a link to the official website in settings.

1.0.38

  • Improved recovery of the file transfer save folder. Fixed an issue where both the file list and folder picker stopped working when the original folder was unavailable.
  • Improved automatic batching of multi-file uploads and continuation after failures, reducing repeat uploads of files that had already succeeded.
  • Fixed an issue where an error involving an old file or a cleanup task could make the entire file transfer feature unavailable.
  • Added disk capacity, free space, and transfer failure details to diagnostic records, making low disk space and read/write errors easier to investigate through troubleshooting reports.
  • Added an optional support link in settings, plus a support email address and buttons to copy the address or write an email in the troubleshooting report section.

1.0.27

  • Fixed an issue where delayed responses from an old connection could interfere with a new one after quickly disconnecting, reconnecting, or switching views.
  • Improved resource cleanup after streaming stops and removed unnecessary fixed waits during normal shutdown.
  • Fixed an issue where changing display scaling could block connection status updates.
  • Added the stage, elapsed time, and error details of streaming service connection failures to diagnostic records, preserving clues from before the interface recovers automatically.

1.0.26

  • Improved recognition and position accuracy of consecutive taps on the stream, making double-clicks easier to trigger.
  • Long presses now trigger a right-click as soon as the recognition threshold is reached, without waiting for release.
  • Fixed inaccurate drag start and release positions, and reduced accidental clicks during multi-touch gestures or when switching to the background.

1.0.25

  • The browser now automatically tries more compatible H.264 settings when it cannot initialize video decoding.
  • Temporary compatibility adjustments preserve the original quality settings to avoid repeated automatic quality reductions.
  • Added prompts to reconnect or try another browser when the picture cannot be restored. Troubleshooting reports now include the browser version and video decoding capabilities.

1.0.24

  • Fixed an issue where the streaming service could hang while closing an encrypted connection, causing device pairing to time out.
  • Improved recovery from pairing problems while running, preserving existing pairings and saved connections that do not require scanning a QR code again.
  • Improved background session cleanup after disconnection, reducing cases where leftover sessions affected the next connection.
  • Fixed issues with the Pro quick terminal during extended use, command cancellation, and status updates.

1.0.21

  • Improved session retention while the Pro PC-to-PC control window is minimized, reducing extra reconnections when restoring the window.
  • Corrected the LAN firewall configuration for the PC-to-PC viewer.
  • Improved how the installer closes the old version, fixing blocked upgrades when both the main window and the PC-to-PC control window were open.
  • Added the current version number to settings. Troubleshooting reports now include the Windows version, installation details, and more complete recent logs.

1.0.20

  • Fixed an issue where the Pro PC-to-PC control window could not open on some Windows 10 PCs.
  • Improved network compatibility for PC discovery, addressing discovery problems when Windows classifies a home network as public.
  • Added file copy progress and messages showing the current preparation stage to the installer.
  • Fixed rounded corners on the Windows 10 main window and its border appearance when resizing or maximizing.

1.0.17

  • Phone streaming diagnostics are now sent automatically to the connected PC, allowing exported troubleshooting reports to include records from multiple connections.
  • Fixed an issue where automatic quality adjustment stopped working after a temporary manual quality change.
  • Improved firewall compatibility for connections using .local addresses on PCs with Bonjour installed.

1.0.16

  • Switching gamepad pages within the same connection now reuses the virtual gamepad, reducing repeated device connections, disconnections, and system sounds.
  • Improved audio and video queue handling on slow networks, discarding outdated frames promptly to reduce persistent backlogs.
  • Fixed an issue where successful results were occasionally missed when background maintenance operations finished quickly.

1.0.12

  • Switching physical displays no longer fully restarts the streaming service, reducing the time needed to apply display changes.
  • Added a preparation message when enabling or disabling a virtual display. You can still browse settings or return to remote control while waiting.
  • Fixed an issue where the scaling of the previous display was incorrectly applied to the new one after switching displays.
  • Fixed an issue where checks on bundled license documents could block installation during an upgrade.
