Empowering anyone to stream anywhere.

Your phone or tablet becomes a second monitor, a mirror of your PC or a game screen. One QR code. That’s the setup.

One phone. Four jobs.

New screen, mirror, game screen and away from home: pick the one you need, every time you connect.

A new screen

One more monitor, on any side of any monitor. Drag a window over — it opens maximized on the tablet.

02 · How it works

Three steps. Once.

1

Install on your PC

OpenAlt sets up Sunshine with its own config — yours stays untouched. Linux today, Windows next.

2

Turn it on

Nothing runs until you press the button. Press it again and everything goes back to how it was.

3

Scan the QR

Open the OpenAlt app on the phone and point it at the code. It works once and expires in two minutes. No PIN.

03 · Any side

Any phone. Any side. Any monitor.

Right, left, above or below — of any monitor you have. Phone or tablet, standing or lying down. OpenAlt doesn’t assume your setup.
