I love your videos, I finally got a windows pc, But when i had a chromebook, I always watched your videos for help. Thanks for all this years of information!
I just wanted to say thank you. I have a MacBook Pro 15, but I don't like the iPhone restrictions. Now, I'll be able to use the S23 Ultra with my MacBook. Thank you, just thank you so, so much. Keep up the good work. Great video, straight to the point and precise. But yes, maybe consider increasing your speaking speed next time, haha. :)
I do that. There is / was Samsung's "Dex" - which allowed for a complete display of the phone or tablet screen on the Mac. I think they depreciated it, though, and it was Samsung specific. I'd like to know more about the screen sharing, though, you mentioned right near the end but didn't go into. Does CamoL do that? I installed it because of your suggestion, but haven't explored that option if it is even there.... thanks!!
Great video and thanks for sharing the KDE. I thought I was only the odd one to own an android phone and a mac. May I know what tool you have used to show your phone's screen on the mac? It's pretty smooth.
Wow, I thought I was alone on the android devices with a macbook for a computer bus. Thanks for this video, do you happen to know any software that we can download on mac to use android tablets like the s8 as a secondary screen monitor? I love my android phone & tablet as much as I love my macbook but hate that I can't use my tab s8 as 2nd display like with windows pcs at work.
Am in the same boat with an S8 Ultra. Duet Display I think is the only solution. Works well, though it does require a subscription. Can be used for drawing - does pressure sensitivity etc.
Yeah, thanks for the tip. I've been using Iriun over the past few months and would agree that it's a better option. I may have to do an update on this video at some point.
I can't open the KDE app on a 2017 mac air, does anyone know why or how to solve it? When I "open it" I can only see a "launching" message that quickly vanishes

Hello I have some issues using kde connect can you let me know if i am the only one with these issues basically telephony does not work and kde does not auto start is this common for all ?
Thanks for sharing! My samsung and mac can't find each other if I use my flat's wifi, but when I use my phone's hotspot to get the mac to connect, they can see each other. Any ideas on how to fix this?
good video, however I couldnot use kdeconnect 23-04.3-1375 even installed in launchpad on mba m2. Maybe kde dmg file isnot convenient for arm based mac. I wonder what type you mbp intel based? by the way I have been still using samsung dex for my note 10+ without any glitches on my mba m2.
I just discovered something I'm not sure what to think about. I think the built-in Mic on my new S24 ULTRA is almost as good as my 32-bit wireless DJI Mic 2. I has a very different sound a minimum, it's very clear. I tried the phone mic because I was curious, not knowing what I'd find. First I tried BT, it did not work, my phone connected to the Mac, but it was a complete dead end, I couldn''t see that it enabled ANYTHING. Thus, I found your Video and tried Camo Connect... VOILA! My Mac now has a Camo Mic on my S24U.
Hi Eevnos, your video helped a lot, thanks! One thing thats still open and I cannot find proper information on is the dialling phone numbers on Android from Mac. Any tips on that?
My android is REVVL 6 pro I have everything downloaded on my mac mini 13 Ventura and my android I have it on my application folder. I open it up it doesn't show up in the upper right corner. So now I'm unable to configure that in the kde connect folder. I tried to do the search and it just brings me to the applications.I'm sure its somewhere on my computer
@Eevnos I am able to copy texts from Mac and Paste it on android but i am unable to copy text from my android and paste it on my Mac. Can someone help???
When I'm trying to install KDE Connect on my M1 Macbook Air as of 27 June 2023. I'm getting the response "Cannot connect to DBus, KDE Connect will quit". Can you please help me out with this whether there is a workaround of this problem, or something else I can do?
@@vishalkaleeswaran7039 I did find a google drive link which downloaded the official app and it's safe I guess but I'm not able to share the google drive link here in the comments because youtube removed my two other comments which contained those links
thanks for the video. I'm trying Camo Studio, but it does NOT make your Phone a webcam to any App, only to Camo Studio! Thus Adds no value for me. As for KDE connect, I don't see where it does anything that I can't already do with Samsung Dex. I wish there was an App better than Dex, which Samsung seems to have kicked to the curb (stopped updating).
Hey! Did you get it to work? I'm planning to get the Mac in a couple of days so I'd love to know. If it didn't work is there anything else you were able to use? Thank you so much in advance.
Hey. The download link for KDE connect for Mac is down and also on the KDE connect page, or is it just me? Does this mean using KDE connect on a mac is not an option any more? I'm so in need of a way to share files and text between my android phone and macbook.. :(
Thanks for your efforts with the video, but after watching up to the 8 minutes I gave up, alas it's way too complicated for me, and it's crazy that after 3 hours (including watching your video) I'm still looking for a simple way to transfer files from my android phone to my macbook 😞
Hi, I don't know how you feel about windows, but that's not important either. I'm interested if there would be a significant difference in performance and usability if windows 10/11 is installed on the macbook pro mid 2012 and what would make more sense with such an old laptop. Yes, of course there is Linux, but that's not the question. could you possibly test it in a video? Thanks for the really informative videos! Best regards
You can't download windows 11 on a 2012 MacBook Pro because its too old, and the it lacks the proper security chip. Your only option would be windows 10. And that would be of limited usability since Microsoft will end support for windows 10 in 2025. So you'd only be able to use the computer for another 2 years if you put windows 10 on it.
@@ninline2000 I forgot about open core. Also I wasn't tracking that apple computers are hostile to linux. As dual booting Pop OS on iMacs works pretty good. Is linux harder to install on Macbooks?

This is wild man, thanks for the information. Very handy having messages sync straight to Mac!
Are you using an Android phone with MacOS?
If so, what are you using to integrate the two?
I do that. There is / was Samsung's "Dex" - which allowed for a complete display of the phone or tablet screen on the Mac. I think they depreciated it, though, and it was Samsung specific.

Either snapdrop or macdroid. Then for photos. I use google photos since my android photos are automatically backed up there.
Local Send is what I use. But I will look into KDE connect.

Do you recommend the Mac, if I'm android user ?
I do recommend it. I am using macos only for 6-7 years and last year I bought a samsung. No problems for me, and Highly recommend it.@@alshuwaiee27

Yes, we need the video using a Galaxy Tab with a Macbook Pro!
Just what ive been looking for!! ♥ from Sweden
oh you can just use kde connect? mac is looking better everyday.
I use Local Send but I think it's the same kind of thing.
What it is and how it's Connectivity?
I couldn't get KDE connect to launch on my 2021 Macbook using Ventura sadly.
Great video but rather than using Camo whose free tier restricts output to 720p, I would recommend iriun or obs-ninja.
Yeah, thanks for the tip.
I've been using Iriun over the past few months and would agree that it's a better option.
I may have to do an update on this video at some point.
