You are working in a café and need to step away for a few minutes—to order another coffee, take a call, or use the restroom—but your MacBook, backpack, and other belongings are still on the table. Stealward helps replace that uncertainty with awareness: AI Watchdog monitors the belongings in view, low-latency live video lets you check in for yourself, and your linked iPhone keeps you informed when something changes—so you can step away with greater peace of mind instead of constantly looking back or guessing what is happening.
Key Features
-
AI Watchdog for your belongings
Point the Mac’s camera toward your backpack, coffee, or other belongings. AI Watchdog monitors the scene and alerts threats in plain language—for example, when someone appears to be reaching toward your bag. -
Ultra-low-latency, end-to-end encrypted live video
Check in from the iPhone in your hand through a private, end-to-end encrypted live stream. Picture in Picture keeps the video visible while you browse, message, or use other apps, so you can keep an eye on your belongings without constantly switching back. -
Movement, power, and offline awareness
Stealward monitors the your device for movement, charger disconnection, low battery, network changes, and offline events. -
Loud local alarm and cross-device alerts
If the protected device is disturbed, Stealward can sound a loud alarm and alert the linked Apple devices you carry. -
Encrypted recordings and playback
Keep an encrypted recording of a camera session, review it later, and return to important events. -
Awareness without extra hardware
Stop worrying and checking! Stealward helps take the worry out of stepping away by keeping you informed when something changes, helping you understand what may be happening, and letting you look in for yourself.

Platform Support
Stealward works across Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Any supported device can be the one left behind, while another linked Apple device receives alerts and opens the live view.
A common setup is to protect a MacBook on a café table and carry an iPhone, but the roles are flexible: a Mac, iPad, or iPhone can act as the watching device or the companion device.
The Mac app supports Apple silicon and is downloaded directly from the Stealward website. iPhone and iPad version is available on the App Store.
