Frequently asked questions
Each answer is written for the practical details people compare when they are deciding between software KVM tools.
Does ViewMeld work between Mac and PC?
Yes. ViewMeld is built for Windows and macOS desks, so you can move between machines even when they use different operating systems.
Does ViewMeld support multiple monitors on each machine?
Yes. Each physical display is mapped individually, so you can use multi-monitor desktops on both computers instead of treating each machine as a single rectangle.
What can I share between computers?
ViewMeld shares your mouse, keyboard, text clipboard, and clipboard images so moving between machines feels like one continuous workspace.
Does ViewMeld need the cloud or an account?
No. Pairing and input sharing stay on your local network, and the product is designed so your input data does not need a cloud relay.
How does pairing work?
You install ViewMeld on each machine, arrange your displays, and then pair devices with a short 6-digit code. You can also limit which hosts are allowed.
Does ViewMeld need any macOS permissions?
Yes. On macOS, you should allow ViewMeld in Accessibility and Screen Recording after installation so input sharing works correctly.
How many machines are included with one license?
A single ViewMeld purchase covers activation on up to 3 machines and includes all future updates.
Is ViewMeld a subscription?
No. ViewMeld is a one-time purchase with no recurring fee.
Is ViewMeld a screen-sharing or remote desktop tool?
No. ViewMeld is focused on local keyboard, mouse, and clipboard flow between computers. It is built for multi-machine desks, not remote screen streaming.
Does ViewMeld support Linux?
Not today. The current release supports Windows and macOS.
