Remote Mouse lets you use your Android smartphone or tablet as a keyboard, mouse or remote control for your laptop or desktop computer.
Remote Mouse is an app that connects your Android smartphone or tablet to your desktop or laptop PC via Wi-Fi. Once that connection is established, you can then use the Android device as a mouse, keyboard and remote control. Picture launching a PowerPoint presentation and then controlling that presentation with your phone as the remote, which is pretty handy option to have.
The remote control is powerful and includes common multimedia controls, which means that you can use it to control an HTPC as well. The remote control is customizable, and the app has advanced gesture support, which means that it can support practically any command. It also features remote log off, shutdown, sleep and restart, and you can use it to launch, switch and close applications.
The mouse implementation works like a magic trackpad, and you can use all or just part of the touchscreen. Any latency is unnoticeable when web browsing or using office applications, but it wouldn’t be suitable in a gaming environment, for instance. The mouse implementation supports multi-touch, gestures and tapping, and you can even configure additional mouse buttons.
The keyboard implementation is quite good as well. You wouldn’t want to use it in place of a laptop or desktop keyboard, but it has its uses. It makes it much easier to register a device or app on your smart TV, for instance, than using a TV remote or getting up to access an HTPC keyboard. As you use it, you’ll probably find a lot of uses you didn’t originally think of.
