Can't connect to your PC?

Your PC and phone need to be on the same Wi-Fi network.

Public Wi-Fi and guest networks often block device-to-device traffic.

Turn on Settings → Keymate → Local Network.

Restart Keymate after enabling the permission for it to take effect.

Keymate must be running on your PC.

If you haven't installed it yet, grab it from the download page.

Check that Keymate is allowed to accept incoming connections in macOS Firewall.

If you're on a VPN, try turning it off briefly.

Open Direct Connect on your PC to find the IP and port, then enter them on your phone via Connect Directly to pair.
