Tokay support

Getting started

On your Mac, install Rex and turn on its built-in Tailscale: rex server tailscale on, or Settings › Tailscale in Rex.
On your iPhone, install the Tailscale app and join the same tailnet.
In Tokay, scan the pairing code Rex shows on your Mac, or enter its address, such as https://your-mac.your-tailnet.ts.net.

Want to look around first? Tap Try the demo on Tokay’s welcome screen: a pretend Mac with agents to answer and terminals to open, all inside the app.

Notifications

The App Store version of Tokay doesn’t send notifications yet. They come from tokay-notifier, a small script in the Tokay repository that runs on a Mac, and it needs an Apple Push Notification key for the app it notifies, which only that app’s developer has. To use notifications and Live Activities now, build Tokay yourself with your own Apple developer account and key: the README says how.

Something’s wrong

A Mac shows as offline: check that Tailscale is connected on both the iPhone and the Mac, and that Rex is running.
Anything else: Settings › Log in Tokay shows what it did; you can share it.
