[FYI] Android Remote Web Desktop app - highly reccomended!

Post by Livin »

If you are an Android fan and you want some cool remote functionality to control your device, this is the best I've found!

It is called Remote Web Desk, by SmartDog Studio HK

There have been others I've used in the past. I found them to be a lot slower, somewhat buggy, not as much eye candy, and not as full featured.

I use it daily for the SMS functionality (I can read/type my text messages from my desktop), transfer files, edit contacts, etc.

using LLama is hit or miss, not working 100% when automating the Remote Web Desktop service to start/stop based on location. I hope the devs at SmartDog Studio HK will work with the devs at KebabApps (makers of Llama) to make it work together smoothly.

If you are interested hi the Market and/or go to smartdogstudio.blogspot.com for a detailed guide

Here's the full feature set...

Ô£ö Web SMS: send, read and manage messages in browser. Support long SMS, mass-messages and fake SMS.

Ô£ö File Explorer: manage SD card files and transfer files between phone and computer. Support multiple upload by drag-and-drop (for HTML 5 browser), image viewer, Media Player, etc.
