The ZDeck dashboard in landscape: Another Love by Tom Odell playing on the left with the mic muted, app shortcuts and live CPU, GPU and RAM on the right.

The film

Watch it work.

The phone is the deck. A small server in your Windows tray does the work. They find each other on Wi-Fi.

The deck

Everything on
one screen.

Now playing, from any app

Artwork, title and progress from whatever your PC is playing. Play, skip, shuffle and repeat.

Windows

ZDeck server,
the other half.

The ZDeck server window on Windows: connected, a Start with Windows switch, and a list of nine shortcuts with Add, Edit and Remove buttons.

A small Windows app that runs in your tray and carries out every tap from the phone.

  • Finds your phone on Wi-Fi

    No IP address to type, even when it changes.

  • Shortcuts sync both ways

    Add one on the PC and it appears on the phone.

  • Starts with Windows

    Then waits quietly in the tray.
