us2us Remote lets one computer show its screen to another and lets the other use its mouse and keyboard. Sessions are end-to-end encrypted: the relay that pairs the two computers forwards data it cannot read.

Connect

• The shared computer shows an ID and a one-time code. Type both on the other computer and connect.
• Nothing starts without the person at the shared computer allowing it. The code changes after every session.
• A permanent password lets you reach your own computer without anyone there to allow it.
• After a session, a computer can be trusted so that it reconnects without a code.

In a session

• Switch between the other computer's screens, hear its sound, send files both ways and share copied text.
• The session goes directly between the two computers when the network allows; otherwise it stays on the relay.

No account needed

Without signing in, a session lasts at most one hour. Signing in with a us2usmail.com account removes the limit and keeps your favourite computers on every device signed in to it. No ads, no tracking, no analytics.

On Linux

• Ubuntu 24.04, Debian 13 or later. On X11 sharing works as is; on Wayland your desktop asks which screen to share.
• To keep you signed in, trusted devices and remembered passwords in your keyring, connect the keyring once: sudo snap connect us2us-remote:password-manager-service
• To send the shared computer's sound: sudo snap connect us2us-remote:audio-record
• The sign-in screen of the shared computer cannot be shared yet.
