Synergy for Mac combines your desktop devices together in to one cohesive experience. It's software for sharing your mouse and keyboard between multiple computers on your desk. It works on Windows, macOS and Linux. Share one mouse and keyboard between multiple computers!

Synergy for macOS lets you easily share a single mouse and keyboard between multiple computers with different operating systems each with its own display without special hardware.

It is intended for users with multiple computers on their desk since each system uses its own monitor(s). Redirecting the mouse and keyboard is as simple as moving the mouse off the edge of your screen.

Synergy for Mac also merges the clipboards of all the systems into one, allowing cut-and-paste between systems.

Furthermore, it synchronizes screen savers so they all start and stop together and, if screen locking is enabled, only one screen requires a password to unlock them all.
