Security
Security is a high concern. Here are a few aspects taken into account around security: - You are completely in charge around hosting the MCP server locally. The code is completely open source. - On the app front, you are in charge of what permissions to give depending on the features you want to use. - The app and the server are linked over your local network. There's no 3p remote servers involved in linking. - It is highly recommended you use this app over a secure network. Avoid public networks like airports and restaurants. - Tailscale is highly recommended for creating a private & secure VPN to connect your phone and desktopsGetting Started
