"This is like my #1 Android App and I`m enjoying it every moment I use my laptop. It works between my HP AMD Ryzen 3 Windows 11 laptop and Moto e6 Android 9 phone. No issues with installation or usage."

"Overall this app is great. Does everything it claims to do. I have the pro version and it`s worth the money. Only gripe is that occasionally the copy/paste function stops working randomly and I have to restart my phone to get it back. Besides that, it`s perfect."

"I have been using this app for years. When I get a new phone it is one of the first Apps I install. Many people I work with when they see it also install. It is a great help when developing Android applications, also super for interacting with phone at work without looking like your not focused on the job. I can write instant messages on my phone and it looks like I am answering an email or making a document on my PC. If I could recommend one feature or improvement it would be to include an option to force screen rotation to match expectation of server. I currently use a work around solution that forces screen rotation when plugged in, but if it was built into the app it would be better. Without the work around when phone is landscape but I am on home screen phone is impossible to control with mouse."

"EDIT: emailed the developer about the bad backspace behavior (backspace deleting everything I`ve typed rather than just one character), he replied promptly to indicate that`s definitely a bug and ask for details. When I tried to test, I found that it was behaving correctly! So we`ll see if the bug manifests again, but meanwhile this is exactly what I was looking for."

"All the mouse based features are fine. But the problem comes when I use the keyboard. If I press backspace on my keyboard, it removes the entire line instead of just one character. This makes me have to bring up Google keyboard every time I want to use backspace. Please issue a fix for this."

"Mouse worked, keyboard didn`t. There`s a lot of hacky stuff going on to make this functionality work sort of. Unfortunately it`s not reliable even though it is an impressive technical feat."

"Great app! Works as advertised and has a ton of cool features. No other software I`ve seen does this. However, it`s a bit buggy. First bug: Whenever I move my cursor from my tablet to my computer, the cursor comes out from the middle of the screen. Second bug: On full screen applications, whenever I move the cursor to my tablet, it will minimize."

"Awesome, this app is really helpful and exactly what I wanted. I followed the instructions and was able to get it working, specially with no root involved. It would be even more awesome that somehow the mouse and keyboard devices were also detected when using a second screen (desktop mode) on your android device, since the focus stays on your phone screen and not passed down to the second screen on your android devices, but I guess that is too much to ask."

"The keyboard does not work ok for me. I cannot use latin characters that are fundaemntal when writing in spanish. I bought this to be able to use the keyboard, but it is a PIA if I cannot write on my language. Even WORST: when server is running, I cannot use these characters ON MY LAPTOP. So, I cannot write in spanish on my tablet and on my own laptop, when using this."

DESCRIPTION
DeskDock allows you to share your computer`s mouse and keyboard with your Android devices via a USB cable. The app enables you to control your Android device as if it was an additional monitor for your computer. Simply move your computer`s mouse cursor over the screen boundaries to start controlling your Android devices.
Features
• Use your computer`s mouse and keyboard with your Android devices
• Keyboard sharing supports international keyboards (eg Umlauts)
• Share clipboard between computer and Android devices
• Drag and Drop: Urls will be opened automatically, APKs will be installed
• Shortcuts for turning off screen, multitouch, quickly changing volume, screen brightness
• Supports Windows, Linux and macOS
• Works on all Android versions starting from 4.1
• NO rooted device required
• Connect multiple Android devices to one computer
• Flexible arrangement of devices
• Customizable mouse button actions
• Customizable mouse pointer speed
DeskDock can be considered the Android equivalent of Universal Control, the feature that implements similar functionality in iPadOS and macOS.
This app could also be described as an unofficial successor to ShareKM, or an Android version of Synergy. It could also be described as a Virtual KVM Switch or a Software KVM Switch solution.
On Android O and beyond, this app uses an Accessibility Service to display a mouse cursor above the System UI. This service is used exclusively for the described purpose and is an integral requirement to provide a consistent user experience for the users of the application, in particular those who suffer from motor impairment.
This app requires a free server application to run on your computer that can be downloaded here: http://bit.ly/DeskDockServerW. The Java Runtime version 1.7 or later is needed on the computer. Depending on your system, device drivers may have to be installed.
Important: Bugs and problems might cross your way. If something does not work, please do not write bad reviews, but send an email to the support email address listed below or in the app so I actually have a chance to help you or fix the issues. Thanks!
