LinuxRemote transforms your mobile phone or tablet into a wireless remote control for your Linux Desktops / Raspberry Pi.
It enables fully simulated mouse and keyboard through your local wireless network.

Advantages of having this app for Raspberry Pi:

• Free-up the USB ports so that you can use them for other usages.
• Reduces the clumsy look of your Raspberry Pi with less wires connected to it.

Features:
• Touch-Pad with all standard gesture support.
• Fully Functional Keyboard with all Linux standard keys and key combinations.
• Multi lingual key Support.
• Compatible with all flavors of Linux.
• Compatible with all Raspberry Pi models and popular SBCs (Single Board Computer).

Brilliant app, very easy to setup. I wish the instructions and the video is updated with the latest instructions. The service no longer runs on port 9999 as shown in the video. I had to do bit troubleshooting to find out the port has changed. I would be happy to update the rating if the instructions are updated. Edit: I really like the new features and updated documentation. Hence, I am updating the rating. Good job guys!

Edit: issue seems to be gone after a while. Leaving the original review to indicate that there might be a bug. Original: the app opens itself constantly when minimized (Android 10, MI A2 Lite). I hit the home button, a few seconds pass and the app forces itself to foreground.

Was trying to gain remote access to a Raspberry Pi 4 with a Samsung A9. Mouse pad was working but keyboard, couldn't input English, though it has always been my first choice of input language. Tried to change the phone settings but nothing seemed to work. Tried to add a second RPi to the list but never made it. Looked like the it was always running at the background of the first device once it had been added. Need help to kill the process. Nothing seemed to work after un-and-re-install...
