How to Seamlessly Share Content from Your Phone and Mac with the free Hyperduck App

All right, lovely. I’m going to share something with you today that you didn’t know you needed—until you try it, and then you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it. Hyperduck is a simple utility for your Mac and iPhone (or iPad), and it’s here to make sharing links between your devices effortless.

You know the moments when you’re scrolling Instagram, TikTok, or Safari, and find something you want to follow up on later at your computer? That’s where Hyperduck steps in. This app lets you share links to your Mac even if it’s turned off. When you open your Mac later, voilà—the link is waiting for you, ready to take action on.

Let’s Take a Look

How to Set Up Hyperduck

Starting On Your Mac:

• Download Hyperduck from the App Store.

• Open the app and enable ‘Launch at Login’ to ensure it’s always ready in the background.

On Your iPhone (or iPad)

• Go to the App Store, search ‘Hyperduck’ and install.

• Restart our device and you should all set to share to your Mac.

How It Works

Once installed, Hyperduck adds a ‘Send to Mac’ option in your share sheet. Let’s say you’re scrolling through Instagram and find a post or a TikTok you don’t want to forget. Here’s how easy it is:

• Tap the share option and scroll to ‘Send to Mac.’

• The link will instantly sync with your Mac if it’s online.

• If your Mac is offline, the link will be ready and waiting when you open it again.

Why You’ll Love It

Hyperduck is one of those tools you don’t realize you can’t live without until you try it. It’s light, intuitive, and, most importantly, free. It outshines alternatives like AirDrop or email by automating the process and keeping everything organized.

Like the example in my tutorial:
I came across a TikTok downtown about content trends for 2025. I sent the link to my Mac using Hyperduck. When I returned to the studio, I opened my computer, and there it was—ready for me to explore.
