About DeskOrbit
Control a compatible electric sit-stand desk from iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. DeskOrbit keeps the current height and Stop control close at hand, with held Up and Down controls, a tactile target-height slider and named positions. The free version controls one desk with two named positions. DeskOrbit Pro adds unlimited desks and positions, automations, optional iCloud sync, interactive widgets, Live Activities, Siri and Shortcuts actions, Action Button support and direct Apple Watch control. A one-time 14-day trial unlocks every Pro feature before you decide on the Lifetime purchase. DeskOrbit includes a safe Demo mode that needs no desk. Real movement is protected by explicit Stop controls, range validation, timeout and stall handling. iOS never starts unattended desk movement from a suspended background process. No account, advertising, tracking or analytics. DeskOrbit is independent software and is not affiliated with any desk manufacturer.
What’s new
Version 1.2 · Updated October 12, 2026
DeskOrbit 1.2 has a new design for iPhone, iPad and Mac, with a clearer view of desk height, connection status and saved positions. • Smart shows the next target before you move the desk. • Enter a height for a saved position or use the current desk height. • Better connection recovery and clearer error messages. • After setup, the Mac app opens in the menu bar without showing a window. • Fixed layout issues in the iPhone automation editor and clipped movement controls on Apple Watch. • Improved height adjustment with VoiceOver.
