When your Mac goes out of range of known Wi-Fi networks, Cellular switches your Mac’s internet connection to your hotspot. And when you go in range of your trusted networks, Cellular turns off your hotspot and reconnects you to your trusted network.

We travel to many places with our Macs. Sometimes, we use them at a café, sometimes on public transport. More often than not, these places may not have a reliable or secure Wi-Fi connection. And more often than not, our Android phones happen to have a strong LTE or 5G connection. But Android devices have long been at a disadvantage in terms of using their mobile hotspot as the connection to the Internet for Macs — it is simply inconvenient. How many times have you had to fumble for your phone, unlock it, and then press the hotspot button? How many times have you left your hotspot on after you have finished your work, letting your phone’s battery gradually seep away, and your phone becoming a hotplate? With Cellular, I aim to solve these long-standing problems of being a Mac user with an Android phone.

THANK YOU for making this; seriously, I was getting annoyed at how many times I'd need to connect to hotspot manually. Feels like something that should be native to Mac. Does Cellular only support Android OS or is iOS also an option? Great job ?makers

@gabe Thank you for your support! Unfortunately, Cellular only supports Android due to limitations in iOS applications.

Slick. This seems like a feature that should be built into the OS.

Cellular provides a seamless connection to my Android hotspot, making using my Android device with my Mac on the go so much more convenient!
