Can Comet Q control an iPhone or iPad over USB-C?

Yes. It supports iPhone 15 and newer, excluding iPhone 16e, iPhone 17e, and iPhone Air. It also supports iPad Pro (2018 and newer), iPad Air (4th generation and newer), iPad mini (6th generation and newer), and iPad (10th generation and newer).

Does the device I want to control need software installed for Comet Q to work?

No. Comet Q provides hardware-level control without installing remote-control software on the target device. The target must have a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode for video output.

GL.iNet Comet Q(GL-RMQ1) Pocket KVM, Plug & Play Remote for Laptop iPhone, No App On Target, Browser based control, USB-C one cable, Wi-Fi 6, Touchscreen, Pocket Size, For Remote Family Tech Support

All-in-One USB-C for Effortless Control: The foldable USB-C cable carries video, audio, keyboard, and mouse data through one connection. Plug it into a compatible DP Alt Mode device for hardware-level control without separate video or input cables.
Remote Wake-Up for Family IT Support: Support family without sitting beside their device. Comet Q wakes supported devices (asleep, locked, or logged out) and resumes the session in a browser. Screens light up only during authorised sessions for privacy.
Always-On ARM Hardware with Wide Device Support: Dual-core ARM system with 512 MB LPDDR4 and 512 MB NAND runs Buildroot. Supports iPhone 15 onward, iPad Pro, Mac mini, MacBook, Windows PCs. Hidden reset restores defaults.
Private Access and Hardware-Level Security: Help family via Tailscale and ZeroTier without port forwarding. Two-factor authentication protects access. Unplug USB-C to end control with no background process, residual access, or target app.
Flexible Control Options: Connect and take control with no remote software installed on the target. Use a browser on a computer, or the touch-optimized GLKVM App on a phone or tablet, for smooth cross-platform control.
Wi-Fi 6 for Reliable Remote Sessions: Wi-Fi 6 supports stable remote sessions with link rates up to 286 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Preset profiles let Comet Q move among home, office, and family networks without repeating setup each time.
