With the Grok @bot usage decrease I’am now trying @OpenBot_ with my codex and Claude subscriptions. So far I like it, but the iOS has a long way to go to be as good as grok bots app

Built a small Mac utility for my own remote desktop setup: one toggle in the menu bar resizes the Mac desktop to fit my iPad's screen ratio and Retina resolution, so I don't have to stare at 16:9 black bars anymore.

It's called PadTailor and v1.0 is live.

@rjs That is such a cool idea. I think I need to steal it 🙈

@OpenRouter @bot Zusammenfassen

[Remo Adams @DerRemo]

Rejected. Needed to rework some things.

Still waiting for review on the Packliste ChatGPT Plugin 😩

Live as v1.0: https://t.co/AkzlCpADYJ

A 16:9 Mac desktop over remote desktop wastes almost half the screen on an iPad because the aspect ratios don't match.

I built a small Mac menu bar app called PadTailor that switches the Mac to a HiDPI resolution matching my iPad's exact screen ratio while I'm connected, and restores the monitor when I disconnect.

@navneetsuman_ Thanks! It's not in the Mac App Store. You download it directly from my site, try it free for 14 days, and then it's a one-time purchase of 4.99 €.

Whenever I connected from my iPad to my Mac over remote desktop, I had to manually change the Mac's display resolution first. Otherwise I got thick black bars and tiny text because the monitor is 16:9 and the iPad is closer to 4:3.

I got tired of doing that by hand, so I built a small Mac menu bar tool for it. You pick your iPad model once, flip a switch when you connect, and when you turn it off your Mac display goes back to normal.

Just shipped v1.0 today.

@SebastianRoehl @t3dotcodes Also the mobile apps working like a charm

[Remo Adams @DerRemo]

@SebastianRoehl @t3dotcodes Yes! I switched too and not looking back to codex. What @theo is building is the best tool by far.

@mitansh_j07 Yeah it really bothered me that my Remote Desktop had black bars on my iPad and I wasted so much screen size

[Remo Adams @DerRemo]

If you use your iPad as a remote Mac screen too, it's called PadTailor: https://t.co/AkzlCpADYJ
