Keep your desktop session within reach
Open the FL Studio window on your Mac with the same playlist, mixer routing, instruments, and plug-ins. Revisit an arrangement or check an export without recreating your desktop session on a mobile device.
- Inspect playlist clips and patterns
- Review mixer routing and plug-ins
- Check project export settings
Use FL Studio on iPad
On iPad, the playlist and mixer have more room. It is useful for reviewing the structure of a desktop project and checking which instruments or effects it uses.
How to get FL Studio on your iPhone or iPad
- Open FL Studio on your Mac and install the free Apperture Mac host.
- Get Apperture on your iPhone or iPad, then pair with your Mac using its QR code.
- Connect to your Mac and choose the FL Studio window. Use landscape orientation for more room.
Keep your Mac awake and on a network your iPhone or iPad can reach. Start on the same local network; for access away from home, see the Tailscale setup guide.
Can I use FL Studio on my iPhone or iPad with Apperture?
Yes — by streaming FL Studio from your Mac with Apperture. The desktop app runs on your Mac; your iPhone or iPad displays its window and sends remote input back. You need a reachable, awake Mac with FL Studio installed, the free Apperture Mac host, and the Apperture app on your iPhone or iPad.
FL Studio Mobile is a separate app with its own workflow. Apperture connects to desktop FL Studio on your Mac; remote latency makes it a poor fit for live instrument performance. FL Studio product information.
