VirtualProg Remote Control is now available

\[New App\] VirtualProg Remote Control for iPhone & iPad is now available 📱⚡️

I’ve just released **VirtualProg Remote Control**, a companion app for VirtualProg on macOS.

# 💡 The Problem

Virtual machines can continue running on your Mac while you’re away from your desk, but managing them usually means returning to the Mac.

I wanted a simple way to control VirtualProg VMs from an iPhone or iPad without having to be in front of the Mac.

# 🚀 What You Can Do

The iOS app allows you to perform virtually every action available in the macOS VirtualProg app directly from your iPhone or iPad:

* ⏯️ **VM Controls:** Start, stop, pause, resume, and restart VMs
* 🖥️ **Remote Display:** View and interact with the VM display (supporting H.265/H.264 hardware video streaming)
* 📸 **Snapshots & Checkpoints:** Manage snapshots and checkpoints directly from mobile
* 📂 **Templates & VMs:** Organize, create, and manage VM templates
* 💻 **Consoles & Logs:** Access SSH terminals, serial consoles, and view real-time VM logs
* 🔌 **Hardware:** Attach and detach USB devices on the fly

# ⚖️️ Comparison

VirtualProg is built specifically for macOS using Apple’s Virtualization framework.

Most Mac virtualization applications focus primarily on managing VMs directly from the Mac. VirtualProg takes this a step further with a native iPhone and iPad companion app for complete remote VM management and control.

The iOS app connects directly to your Mac. There is no cloud VM service or subscription required.

# 💰 Pricing & Links

* 💻 **VirtualProg for macOS:** $22.99 (One-time purchase)
* 📱 **VirtualProg Remote Control for iOS:** $9.99 (One-time purchase)
* ❌ *No monthly subscription.*

*(Note: The iOS app requires VirtualProg running on a Mac).*

I think I ran some malware on my laptop

I’m not very tech savvy so please bear with me. I wanted to install pear helper and fell for the fake website and ran the fake git hub code that is available there. I got a pop up asking for my admin password and for some reason I decided to stop then and there and research and I realized I was falling for some scam. So I didn’t put in my password. My question is my laptop compromised and passwords compromised? I was suggested to delete everything and download an older Time Machine back up but I don’t have any. I have many accounts and information that’s on my laptop and don’t remember but I do need them but I don’t know all the exact usernames and so on. My os is Ventura and the website is accessed is the pearhelper.com does anyone know if by not giving it my admnin password I avoided getting my data and passwords stolen or if it still ran and got that info regardless. Please help!

What’s a Mac app you keep running all day without actively using?

Not an app you open to complete a specific task, but something that quietly stays in the background or sits on your desktop all day.

For me, those apps tend to be more useful than the ones with dozens of features. Curious what everyone else keeps open.
