Control from away
Use your phone as a touchpad when you do not want to reach for the mouse and keyboard, or when you are sitting away from the screen.
Your phone becomes the control surface
Control your desktop from your phone.
Use the screen already in your hand as a trackpad, keyboard, text pad, and command deck for the computer nearby.
Use scenarios
Four ways your phone becomes useful at the desk.
Input across screens
Type, dictate, or paste on the phone with your favorite input method, then send the text into the focused desktop app.
Trigger desktop actions
Run common desktop actions from the phone: screenshots, media controls, app launch, window control, recording, and more.
Skip extra hardware
Keep working when you did not bring a mouse, the trackpad is out of reach, or you do not want to buy another input device.
