What should your phone become?
Switch any time — the connection stays up.
Photos you take appear here.
The phone's camera, live on this screen. Everything below controls the phone — walk it anywhere, drive it from here.

Point the phone down at paper. Capture pages as you go, let it read the text, and save the lot as one PDF.
Scan with the phone; every code lands in this list and on your clipboard, ready to paste.

The phone is the microphone. Put it near whoever is speaking; record here, on this computer.
Listening on this computer can echo if the phone is nearby — use headphones, or leave it off and just record.
Guests scan the code with their own phones; every photo they take lands in this gallery, live.
Guests scan with their normal camera. Nothing to install, completely free, and no photo is stored on our servers.
Photos your guests take appear here within seconds.
Up to four phones, each a different angle, all on this screen at once.
Tip: press Ctrl + Enter to send.
Nothing sent yet. Anything your phone sends lands here too.
The phone is already a signing pad — just hand it over. The signature appears here as they draw it, saves as a clean transparent PNG, and the pad reopens for the next person by itself.
Hand the phone over — the pad is live
The phone became a signing pad the moment this tool opened. What they draw appears here as you watch.
Accepted signatures appear here.
Let this helper control the pointer?
The touchpad helper on this computer is asking to move the mouse and type on it. Only allow this if you started it yourself, just now.
The phone becomes a mouse and keyboard for this computer — one small helper runs it, no install.
One click, once per computer
A web page is not allowed to move your mouse pointer — no website can, on any operating system. A tiny helper does it instead: download it below, open it, and it starts PowerShell for you with your session code already filled in. Nothing is installed, no administrator rights, and it stops the moment you close its window.
- Keep the download if your browser asks Browsers double-check runnable files. This one is ten lines — it only starts the helper below.
- Open the file, and choose Run if Windows asks A console window opens: that is the helper, already talking to this page. It types nothing and reads nothing on its own.
- Approve it here This page asks you to allow the connection, exactly like the phone did.
- Only if Windows says “Access is denied” Right-click the downloaded file → Properties → tick Unblock → OK, then open it again. Some antivirus setups lock files fresh from the internet until you do.
Prefer to run it yourself?
Open PowerShell (⊞ Win, type PowerShell, Enter), paste this line, and press Enter:

It will ask for your session code: ——————
Want to read it first? Open the script — it is short and commented, on purpose.
On a Mac or Linux? The helper is Windows-only for now — everything else on Use My Phone works everywhere.
Your phone is the mouse
Slide to move · tap to click · two fingers to scroll · hold then slide to drag. The keyboard row types straight into whatever is in front of you.
Put an image here; the phone is the pen. Strokes appear live as they're drawn.
Open an image, then draw on it from your phone
Drop a photo, plan or screenshot here. Your phone becomes the pen — pen, highlighter, undo and eraser — and what you draw appears here live.
Load the slides here; the phone becomes the clicker, with a pointer, timer and speaker notes.
Load your slides, then control them from your phone
Open a PDF of your deck here. Your phone becomes the clicker — tap or swipe to move, with a pointer, timer, speaker notes and a blank-screen button.
Presenting from PowerPoint or Google Slides? Export the deck to PDF and open it here — you keep the pointer, timer and notes. Driving another app directly needs the desktop helper, which is on the way.
Snapshots of anything that moves appear here.
A spare phone watching a room, live on this screen. It can snapshot anything that moves.
Your phone shows that its camera is being shared for as long as this is running — Use My Phone is never a hidden camera.
Drop a file here and it lands on the phone; send from the phone and it lands here. Direct and encrypted, never uploaded.
