Using your smarthphone as a mouse August 5, 2013 by Q
I wanted to buy a wireless mouse and guess what ? I thaught to myself (Hmmm…I already got a smarthphone …wouldn’t be nice if i could use it as a mouse by using an easy freeware?) . I’ve searched a while on my app store and i found a great tool that helps you do that . The install on your smarthphone is automatic and you also need to install a version of the Remote Mouse freeware on your computer .
The name of the app is Remote Mouse and you can find it by going to your app store and do a search after “Remote Mouse”. There are several others freewares that deals with the same issue but this one is highly rated , and it allows you to use it for free . As i said above you will also need to install a version on your Mac OS , Windows ,IPhone/IPod Touch , Ipad and Android . It works the same on all this operating systems.
