What's New in LinkFlick

Close your laptop and your keyboard and mouse move to the next Mac on their own. Turn it on in Settings under Docking Automation.

Open linkflick://move or linkflick://send from Raycast, Alfred, Stream Deck, a mouse button or a shell script to move your devices without touching the menu bar.

A step-by-step setup on both Macs finds your other Mac, links them, and lets you try a practice move before anything real happens.

Switches are quicker, your mouse arrives first, and LinkFlick now recovers on its own if a device or a connection to your other Mac drops.

Send Devices to Next Mac is now available as a Shortcuts action and Siri command, so you can automate it into a routine or trigger it hands-free.

Sending devices to another Mac is now significantly faster, closing most of the gap with pulling devices to this one.

Fixed several edge cases where a handover could leave a device stuck disconnected, including transfers to a Mac that's gone to sleep.

Move Devices Here (⌥⌘L) pulls your Magic accessories to whichever Mac you're on. The new Send Devices to Next Mac (⌥⌘;) does the reverse — pushes them along before you walk away. Both are customizable in Settings.

Hotkey-triggered handovers now show a quick on-screen confirmation, even when LinkFlick's menu isn't open, so you always know it worked.

Changed your mind mid-pairing? Cancel a pending request before it completes, right from the pairing banner.

Faster diagnostics export and a number of behind-the-scenes reliability improvements.

Resolved an issue where LinkFlick could fail to launch on certain supported macOS versions despite meeting the minimum requirement.

If you see a trial-expired screen after updating, the button to re-enter an existing license key is now clearer and easier to find.

Run "Flick Devices" hands-free with Siri voice commands ("Hey Siri, flick devices"), integrate it into your macOS Shortcuts routines (like waking up or connecting to a display), or assign it to a Stream Deck button.

Press your favorite key combination from any app to instantly pull all your Magic devices to your current Mac. Defaults to ⌥⌘L, with an interactive key recorder in Settings.

Proactive macOS notifications when your connected Magic Keyboard, Mouse, or Trackpad battery falls below 20%, so you're never caught off guard in the middle of deep work.

Enjoy a subtle audio chime confirming when your devices have successfully switched. LinkFlick also automatically turns on Bluetooth if it was disabled when a flick is triggered.

Resolved edge cases during sequential device releases, ensuring devices pair reliably even when switched rapidly back and forth.

Fixed offline device state reporting and prevented duplicate discovery announcements across high-traffic Wi-Fi networks.

Power-efficient display polling for clamshell and dual-Mac docking setups.

Smoother card transitions and refined status indicators for connected peers.

Privacy-first usage metrics with a full opt-out toggle in Settings to help us improve reliability.

Enhanced encryption protocols for peer-to-peer pairing across local networks.

More reliable trust persistence across macOS restarts and user account logouts.

Enhanced background stability during extended multi-day desktop sessions.

Move devices smoothly in either direction between your paired Macs with a single click.

Clear, real-time status indicators when initiating multi-device transfers.

Quicker detection of nearby Macs after waking from sleep or switching networks.

Improved connection retry handling and smoother timeout recoveries.

Smoother peripheral reconnection and status reporting after switching devices.

Faster local discovery when pairing Macs across mixed Wi-Fi and Ethernet setups.

Physical Bluetooth transfer of Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, and Magic Trackpad with zero network relays.

Zero-config Bonjour networking over your local Wi-Fi or Ethernet. No cloud dependencies.
