Three simple ideas, captured from the current MoyMote app on a phone, in dark appearance.

  • MoyMote phone panel connected to a monitor over the local network, brightness slider visible

    Control from anywhere in the room

    Your phone becomes a private local remote for the monitor — no getting up to reach the buttons.

  • MoyMote phone panel with the blue light filter slider, from cool to warm

    Comfort for every hour

    Balance brightness and blue light without opening the monitor's own on-screen menu.

  • MoyMote saved display modes: Day, Night, Movie, Game and a custom saved mode

    Your settings, remembered

    Save a mode for work, movies or night use, and switch between them in one tap.

Your monitor's everyday controls. Without the buttons.

The panel on your phone is the same one you get on the PC. It shows only the controls your monitor actually supports.

MoyMote phone panel in dark appearance: monitor connected over the local network, brightness, blue light filter and HDR controls

  • Brightness

    One smooth slider, from barely-there to full.

  • Blue light filter

    Steps through your monitor's own colour presets, from cool to warm.

  • Screen Blackout

    Blacks out the picture without switching the monitor off. The same button brings it back.

  • HDR

    Turns Windows HDR on or off for the monitor.

    Needs an HDR-capable display with HDR available in Windows.

  • Sleep and shut down

    Put the PC to sleep or shut it down from where you're sitting. Hold to confirm, so nothing happens by accident.

  • Modes and contrast

    Day, Night, Movie and Game to start with, plus up to four modes of your own. Contrast is one slider away.

  • Volume and mute

    For monitors with built-in speakers that accept the command.

  • Dark or light

    The panel follows your phone's appearance, or you pick one.

  • Choose a single display or all displays
  • Each display shows the controls its own DDC/CI support allows
  • Try it on your own setup during the 7-day free trial; issues you report are fixed in updates

Your phone is the remote.

Scan a QR code once and your phone's browser becomes the MoyMote panel. There is nothing to install on the phone and no account to create. The phone talks to your PC over your own local network. Optional remote access runs through your own Tailscale, and is off by default.

  • Works from the couch, the bed or the other side of the room
  • Add it to your home screen for one-tap access
  • See and remove paired phones whenever you like

Made for late nights.

At midnight the monitor is the brightest thing in the room. Bring it down to a glow and warm up the picture without leaving the sofa, then save it as a mode and call it back tomorrow with one tap.

  • Brightness and warmth in one place
  • Screen Blackout for when you just want the dark
  • Saved modes remember the whole look

Why MoyMote?

A tray slider is fine while you sit at the desk. MoyMote is built for the moments you aren't at the desk.

  1. Your phone is the remote.No app to install on the phone. Scan once and it's paired.
  2. More than brightness.Blackout, HDR, sleep and shut down, next to brightness and warmth.
  3. Modes you switch in one tap.Movie night, late reading or gaming, each saved exactly how you like it.
  4. Local and private.No MoyMote account, no cloud, no tracking. Your settings stay on your own devices.

Set up in about a minute.

  1. Install MoyMote on Windows

    It lives in the tray and talks to your monitor over DDC/CI, the control channel most external monitors carry over the video cable.

  2. Scan the QR code with your phone

    Your phone opens the panel in its browser and pairs with your PC over your local network.

  3. Control your monitor

    From the PC or from your phone. Changes are sent to the monitor over DDC/CI.

Check your setup before you buy.

  • Windows 10 or 11MoyMote runs on the PC the monitor is connected to.
  • An external monitor with DDC/CIUsually on by default. If not, you'll find it in the monitor's own menu.
  • HDMI or DisplayPortSome USB-C docks and adapters don't pass DDC/CI through.
  • The same local networkYour phone and PC on the same network. Away from home? See optional remote access.

Every monitor exposes a different set of controls: some offer only brightness, others add colour presets, contrast or volume. MoyMote shows what yours supports and hides the rest. We've tested it on a Fazeon X34F180QP, and we'd rather you try it on your own monitor than trust a long compatibility list, which is what the 7-day free trial is for. Built-in laptop screens don't support DDC/CI, so MoyMote can only black them out.

Local by design.

Questions, answered.

What is DDC/CI?

DDC/CI is a standard that lets a computer send commands such as brightness or contrast to an external monitor over the video cable. MoyMote uses it to control your monitor from Windows and from your phone.

Do I need to install an app on my phone?

No. You scan the QR code shown by MoyMote on your PC and the panel opens in your phone's browser. You can add it to your home screen if you like.

Does it work with a laptop's built-in screen?

Built-in laptop screens don't support DDC/CI, so MoyMote can't change their brightness. It can still black them out. Windows' own brightness keys keep working as usual.

What if my monitor doesn't support a control?

MoyMote shows only what your monitor reports it can do. If a control is missing, your monitor or its connection doesn't expose it. That's why there's a 7-day free trial: try it on your own setup first.

Does it matter if I use HDMI or DisplayPort?

Both carry DDC/CI on monitors that support it. Some USB-C docks, hubs and adapters don't pass it through, so a direct cable is the safest choice.

Can I wake the PC from my phone?

Not reliably. Many modern PCs go into a deep sleep in which the network is off, so wake it with the keyboard, mouse or power button.

Is any of my data collected?

No. MoyMote has no account, no telemetry and no crash reports, and nothing is sent to us. The app contacts Microsoft Store only to check your license. The privacy policy covers the app and this website in full.

Can I control my monitor away from home?

Yes, if you install Tailscale on your PC and phone, sign in with the same account and turn on optional remote access in MoyMote. Read the setup guide and security tradeoffs.

Does it support multiple monitors?

Yes. Choose one display or all displays from the display picker. Controls depend on each monitor's DDC/CI support, so try it on your own setup during the 7-day free trial; issues you report are fixed in updates.

Will I be charged when the trial ends?

No. When the trial ends, MoyMote locks until you buy; your settings are kept. You're never charged automatically; you only pay if you choose Buy.

Do updates cost extra?

One-time purchase, no subscription. Updates arrive automatically through the Store at no cost. Features you bought will never become paid.

What if I want a refund?

Use the 7-day free trial to test MoyMote on your setup before you pay. Purchases through Microsoft Store follow Microsoft Store's refund policy.

How do I get help?
