What Is Koyomi-Link?
Koyomi-Link is a resident desktop companion app that connects our custom mobile apps to Windows PCs. Simply keep it running on your PC, and it receives text and commands sent from compatible apps on the same network, reflecting them in the active input field on the PC in real time.
The connection is completed entirely within your local network (same Wi-Fi) without going through the internet or any external server, making it suitable for sensitive text data and enabling fast, responsive input linkage.
Typical Situations and Problems It Solves
Manually typing barcode values into your PC
Combined with the barcode reader app "Scaflow," barcode values scanned on your iPhone or iPad are sent to input fields on your PC—Excel, web browsers, or in-house systems—as if typed on a keyboard. This reduces manual-entry errors and effort in inventory management, inspection, and product registration work.
Using your smartphone phrases on a PC
Linked with the phrase keyboard app "PhraseBoard," phrases selected on your iPhone can be sent directly to the cursor position on your PC. Even in environments where you cannot install template software on the PC, your smartphone works like a "phrase remote control."
Sending photos and files to a PC without a cable
Combined with the file transfer app "KoyomiDrop," photos, videos, and files on your iPhone or iPad can be transferred directly to a Windows PC on the same network.
Main Features
- Easy connection via QR code: Just scan the QR code shown on the PC screen with a compatible app. Manual connection using an IP address is also supported.
- Real-time input reflection: Content entered or scanned on your smartphone is instantly sent to the current cursor position on your PC.
- Selectable sending methods: When linked with PhraseBoard, you can choose between "key input" (typed character by character), "copy and paste," and "copy only" (requires the latest version of Koyomi-Link).
- System tray residency: The app can be minimized to the system tray so it stays out of your way.
- Auto-launch support: It can start automatically with Windows, so the link is ready whenever you need it.
How to Use
- 1. Launch Koyomi-Link on your Windows PC. The screen shows a "waiting" status along with a connection QR code and connection details.
- 2. Scan the QR code with a compatible app (Scaflow, PhraseBoard, KoyomiDrop, etc.) on your iPhone or iPad.
- 3. Once connected, whatever you enter, scan, or select on your smartphone is sent to the PC.
FAQ and Notes
If you cannot connect
First, make sure the PC and smartphone are on the same Wi-Fi (local network). If the QR code connection fails, manual connection using an IP address is also available. Depending on your security software or firewall settings, you may be asked to allow the communication—select "Allow" in that case.
Intended use
Koyomi-Link and its compatible apps are input-assist tools intended to streamline inventory management, office work, and data entry in the user's own work environment. They do not include features intended for automated posting to external services or any operation that violates terms of service.
How to get it and pricing
Koyomi-Link is a PC (Windows) application and is not distributed on the App Store. You can download it for free from the download button on this app detail page. It is provided for Windows (64-bit) in two forms: an installer (.exe) and a ZIP archive.
Background
"I want to put data captured on my iPhone into Excel on my PC." "I want to use the phrases saved on my phone in a chat window on my PC." Moving data between devices used to require roundabout steps such as sending files or syncing through the cloud. Koyomi-Link was developed as a common platform that connects mobile devices and PCs directly over the local network, turning your iPhone into an input device for your PC. With just one connection point, it aims to serve as the hub of an ecosystem where multiple custom apps can all deliver their benefits to the PC side.
