Control your Windows PC
from your Android — instantly.

RemotePC is a fast, privacy‑first remote‑control system. Use your phone as a trackpad and keyboard, see live screenshots, send files, adjust volume, and trigger system actions — all over your own Wi‑Fi. No accounts. No tracking. No cloud.

Everything you need, nothing you don’t

Designed for speed, simplicity, and full local control.

Trackpad & Keyboard

Move, click, drag, scroll, and type — your phone becomes a precision input device.

Live Screenshots

See your desktop in real time. Snapshots are compressed for fast preview.

System Stats

CPU, RAM, Battery — streamed from your PC to your phone.

File Transfer

Pick a file on Android and send it directly to your PC over TCP.

Audio Volume

Quickly change Windows system volume via the built‑in COM interface.

System Controls

Shutdown, restart, lock, sleep, sign‑out — right from your hand.

How it works

1

Install the Windows Listener

Download and run the small listener app on your PC. It listens on your local network only.

2

Open the Android App

Enter your PC’s IP and port. The app connects directly over Wi‑Fi using a custom TCP protocol.

3

Control & Transfer

Use the trackpad, keyboard, screenshots and file transfer — with zero cloud or accounts.

FAQ

What permissions does the Android app use, and why?

Network: to connect to your PC over Wi‑Fi and exchange commands, stats and screenshots. No external servers involved.

Storage (optional): only when you initiate file transfer. The app reads the file you select and sends it to your PC. It never scans your storage.

Why does Windows Defender flag the listener as a “virus”?

It’s a false positive common to remote‑control tools. The listener is small, unsigned, accepts TCP connections, can simulate keyboard/mouse, send screenshots and receive files — behaviors that resemble malware. The key differences: no persistence, no registry hacks, no telemetry, no cloud, local‑only by default, and you run it explicitly.

You can restore and allow it in Windows Security, then add it to Exclusions to prevent future removals.

Can anyone else access my PC?

Only devices on your network that know your PC’s IP and port. RemotePC is LAN‑first and not reachable from the internet unless you manually port‑forward (not recommended).

Does the app track me or send data to the cloud?

No. No accounts, no analytics, no telemetry. Traffic stays in your network.

Can I use it over mobile data?

Possible with manual port forwarding and a stable public IP, but this is an advanced, optional setup.
