tether

Bridges iPhone Continuity features (clipboard, files, messages) to the Linux desktop

Desktopfree

Tether brings Apple Continuity-style features to the Linux Wayland desktop for people who use an iPhone. It syncs the clipboard, transfers files, and lets users read and reply to SMS/iMessage and mirrored notifications from Linux, plus autofill OTP codes via browser and mail extensions. It targets Linux users who kept an iPhone after leaving macOS.
