With [*Screens*](https://edovia.com/screens-mac) running on your Mac, follow these steps:

* Go to the ***Screens***** app menu**.
* Select ***Screens Connect***** > Sign In...**
* Enter your ***Screens ID*** and **password**.
* Click the **Sign In** button.

Upon signing in, you should see every Mac and Windows computer you've installed *Screens Connect* on. The antenna icon next to the computer name means that the *Screens Connect* service is enabled on that computer.

The next time you connect to this computer, *Screens* will determine whether your computer is available on your local network. If it's not, *Screens* will query our *Screens Connect* server for the computer's network information. This process is all seamless, and you shouldn't see a difference between connecting via local network or via the Internet!
