Control a Phone with My Computer Android

Can you control your smartphone using only your computer? The answer is a resounding YES. The real question is: how much of your smartphone can you control? As I sat down to write this article, I had no clue what the answer to that question was, and to my surprise, the answer is quite a lot.

From texts and call logs to full blown mouse-and-keyboard input, we can actually do much more than you might expect.

MightyText

The first Android remote control app I used is MightyText and I must say… wow. This app can be summarized rather succinctly: send and read SMS messages through your Android phone by using a computer or tablet. Seems simple enough, right? Yet for something so easy, I’m blown away by how practical it is AND how polished the final product looks.

MightyText is a web app that stays in sync with your phone through a wireless connection. In order for it to work, you need to install the MightyText app on your phone and sign in using a Google account. As the app runs silently in your phone’s background, the web app (which you access using a simple URL) updates on the fly when you receive new texts.

With MightyText, you can browse your texts in two modes: Classic (selecting one conversation at a time) or Power (viewing all of your conversations at once in a grid). As you receive new texts, you’ll see popup notifications. Sending a message is easy as well; all you need to do is type away and press Send. You can even add attachments for those messages that transcend text.

The web app is beautiful and very responsive, so much so that I just feel cozy using it. The remote control portion of MightyText (the web app, basically) is available as a Chrome extension, Firefox addon, and an Android Tablet app. The regular web app works on IE, Safari, iPads, and Kindle Fires. Opera support is on its way.

LazyDroid

LazyDroid is named for those of you who are apparently so lazy that you can’t be bothered to go and physically grab your phone. I’m okay with that though; it describes me rather well. But on a more serious note, LazyDroid is really cool. All you have to do is install the app onto your Android phone and run it in the background while your phone has Internet access.

The app will tell you the “server IP” of LazyDroid on your phone, but don’t worry. It’s not as scary as it sounds. Just type that IP and port (it should be in a form similar toxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxxx) into your browser and you will be presented with something that looks like a full-blown desktop. This is where all of the magic happens.

From this desktop, you can control many different aspects of your phone: SMS, contacts, call logs, camera, sensors, file manager, or even direct remote control of the device. Just be sure to note that remote control requires your Android to be rooted. By default, the web app connects to your phone through a wireless connect, but LazyDroid has a USB client that you can use if you want a direct connection (less lag).

The LazyDroid app isn’t exactly free. You can use it without limit for 24 hours, but once the trial is over you’re stuck between using the limited version OR upgrading to premium which costs $4.00 USD.

Android Screencast

Android Screencast is a small hobby project that lets you remote control your Android phone through the Android SDK. We have an article that will help you set up the Android SDK; just scroll down to the section called Setting Up Your PC… and you’ll be good to go. The Android SDK is what grants your PC control of your Android device when the USB is plugged in.

With Android Screencast, you can: control your device completely using mouse and keyboard (rooted devices only); record the screen to video while you use your phone; browse your phone’s file system effortlessly. What are the downsides? Well, since it’s a small hobby side project, it isn’t very optimized or polished and you’ll experience some hiccups.

All in all, it shows some promise but needs a bit of work done before I’d consider switching to it. Just know that it’s out there and it may turn into a real project sooner or later. Requires Java Runtime Environment 5 or higher to operate correctly.

Conclusion

So can you control your phone from your computer? Yes, you can. The technology may still be primitive with a number of flaws and missing features, but give it a year or two. Current developers will break new ground and other developers will start their own competing apps, all resulting in better remote control for our phones. Whether remote phone control is necessaryis a topic for another time.

Know of any other remote control apps for Android? Please share them in the comments. This is an area that I wasn’t aware existed until a few days ago, so researching all of these possibilities has been a blast. I’d love to hear about other alternatives.

Display Keystrokes In Your Screencasts With Screenkey Fork

• multi-monitor support;
• configurable font/size/position;
• several keyboard translation methods;
• key composition/input method support;
• improved backspace processing;
• Normal/Emacs/Mac caps modes;
• dynamic recording control by pressing both control keys;
• switch for visible shift and modifier sequences only;
• bug fixes.

The latest Screenkey 0.8 also comes with various advanced features, such as placing the Screenkey window on top of an application (first screenshot below), command-line placement (these features require "slop", which is not available in the official Ubuntu repositories but is available in the main WebUpd8 PPA and is installed automatically when you install Screenkey from our PPA) and more.

Heres Screenkey in action:

Since I couldn’t find the latest Screenkey 0.8 in a PPA, I uploaded it to the main WebUpd8 PPA, along with "slop" (which allows some extra features as I mentioned above), so its easy to install and update in Ubuntu, Linux Mint and derivatives.

Install Screenkey 0.8 in Ubuntu or Linux Mint

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install screenkey
