uRemotePC - Version 1.0.4

Welcome to uRemotePC, a remote desktop control application for controlling your computer from a mobile device.

Overview

uRemotePC is a software solution that enables you to remotely control your computer from your mobile device. The project consists of two main components: the "mobile" app (built with React Native) and the "desktop" server (Python).

  • The "mobile" app (Android) allows you to connect to your computer from your mobile device and control it remotely.
  • The "desktop" server (Python) opens a socket server that listens for incoming connections from the mobile app and facilitates remote control.

Features

  • Remote desktop control from your mobile device.
  • User-friendly and intuitive mobile app interface.
  • Low-latency communication between the mobile app and the desktop server.
  • Secure and encrypted communication.
