Pulsar combines Parsec-style low-latency game streaming with TeamViewer / RustDesk-style remote desktop in a single open-source app. On macOS, Windows, Linux and Android — free forever.
Share your ID or connect to a remote device.
This ID is assigned by the relay server. If you share it, others can connect to your device; the connection is established P2P first, via relay if needed. The password renews after every session.
Make your powerful desktop the host; pick up your game from the laptop on the couch, a computer in another city, or a friend's screen. No Sunshine + Moonlight setup hassle — one app.
The familiar TeamViewer / AnyDesk flow — without license fees or "commercial use" warnings. Servers, client machines and the family's computers in a single address book.
Every connection tries direct P2P first; if NAT blocks it, traffic falls back to a relay automatically. The connection never drops.
Keys are generated only on your devices. No server — including the relay — can decrypt your traffic.
Your device identity comes from the relay server. Run your own with a single docker command.
Switch between remote displays, or open them all side by side in one window.
Two-way encrypted transfer with drag & drop. Clipboard sync and in-session chat included.
All code on GitHub under GPLv3. No account required, no telemetry, no ads.
Install Pulsar on both devices. The app registers with the relay server and assigns you a unique device ID.
Enter the other device's 9-digit ID and one-time password. No account needed.
Direct P2P is tried first, falling back to relay if needed — end-to-end encrypted either way.
Free, open source, ad-free. No credit card, no account.
