Energy options
With one click you can shut down, restart, log off or hibernate the computer.
Application remote control
Quickly launch applications and switch between them. A handy button to display the desktop is also present.
Gyroscope mouse
Control the mouse cursor by tilting your phone and moving it in the air – a nice use of the gyroscope and accelerometer feature on mobile devices.

Extensive settings allow you to customize the remote control interface to best suit your preferences.
Voice input
Integrated with voice recognition on iOS and Android. Just type on a computer by clicking the voice button and speak to your phone.

What’s new
Your computer at a glance
The connection bar now shows the active app, window title, and currently playing media, giving you a clearer picture of what your computer is doing.
You can see which app and window you are currently working in. For example, if you have multiple tabs open in Chrome, you can easily see which tab is currently active.
Meanwhile, music or videos can continue playing in the background while you use another window on your computer. The connection bar shows what is currently playing, and you can pause or resume playback without bringing the music or video to the foreground using the Media Remote panel.
Introducing connection codes: easier connections, better protection
We’ve introduced an easier and more secure way to connect to Remote Mouse: connection codes. The update is now available for Remote Mouse Helper on Mac, with Windows and Linux updates coming soon.
Safer by default
Previously, the connection password had to be activated manually. Now it is enabled by default on new installations. When a new device tries to connect, a six-digit connection code automatically appears on your Mac, so you’ll know when someone requests access.
- Less setup, less effort
- A 6-digit code is automatically generated.
- No passwords to create or remember.
- Enter the code once and your phone can save it for future connections.
- You can regenerate new code at any time
You don’t have to touch your computer
We know that sometimes using your computer directly is not convenient. You can enter the connection code on your phone or use your phone’s touchpad to remotely control Helper and regenerate the code – all without touching your computer’s keyboard or mouse.
Important: After you regenerate your connection code from your phone, your current remote connection will no longer work. To continue, open the Connect to Computer screen on your phone and reconnect manually.
