Convert iOS App to Desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux)
Port your iOS/iPadOS app to desktop platforms while preserving all native interactions. UniversalForge translates SwiftUI to desktop UI, maps touch gestures to mouse/keyboard, and adds native desktop features like system tray, menus, and multi-window support.
Mac-first, Windows & Linux
macOS output is preferred for iOS apps (native SwiftUI on Mac), with Windows and Linux via a shared UI layer.
Trackpad Gestures Preserved
Multi-touch trackpad gestures, swipe navigation, and force touch are preserved on macOS and mapped to equivalent interactions on Windows/Linux.
Keyboard Shortcuts
All touch interactions get automatic keyboard shortcut equivalents — fully customizable by end users.
Window Management
Split view, multiple windows, tabs, and full-screen modes with proper window state persistence.
How It Works
Upload your IPA or provide an App Store link. For macOS output, UniversalForge generates a SwiftUI Mac app using Mac Catalyst or AppKit.
For Windows/Linux, the iOS logic is transpiled to a cross-platform framework (Tauri or Neutralinojs) with platform-native UI components.
iOS-specific APIs (HealthKit, ARKit, CoreML) are identified and either replaced with desktop equivalents or flagged for manual implementation.
