WindTouch
Use your mobile phone as a mouse, keyboard, and remote control

When there's no mouse at hand, when presenting away from your PC, or when it's hard to find the TV remote. WindTouch is an app that lets you control your PC and supported TVs and set-top boxes with an Android smartphone.

From smartphone mouse to TV remote

Bluetooth Mouse & Touchpad

Move the PC cursor with your finger on the phone's touchpad and use click and scroll functions. Both Android phone and PC must support Bluetooth HID input.

How to Use the Mouse

Smartphone Bluetooth Keyboard

Enter text on the PC and use shortcuts and numeric keypad. Select the input window on the PC first, then use the keyboard and text sending function.

Air Mouse & Presentation Remote

In Air mode, tilt your phone to move the cursor. You can also use the volume buttons to click or advance presentation pages.

Wi-Fi TV Remote

Connect to supported TVs and set-top boxes using the same shared network to use directional keys, OK, home, volume, and app shortcuts. TV may require connection approval or entering an authentication code.

How to Use the TV Remote

Start PC with Bluetooth, TV with Wi-Fi

Connect your mobile phone as a Windows PC mouse

  1. Turn on Bluetooth on both the PC and the phone, and open the 'Add Bluetooth device' screen on Windows.
  2. In WindTouch's mouse and keyboard connection menu, find the PC.
  3. Check the PIN displayed on both devices and approve the pairing.
  4. Once the input connection is complete, test the cursor, clicks, and text input on the desktop or in a notepad.

For Bluetooth input, there is no need to install a separate receiving program on the PC. Check the pairing display and the actual input action separately.

Connect the smartphone as a TV or set-top box remote

  1. Connect the phone and the supported TV or set-top box to the same network router.
  2. In the remote connection wizard, select the TV/set-top box and execute 'Find Wi-Fi TV'.
  3. After confirming the permission request or authentication code on the TV screen, test whether the directional keys actually work.

The TV Wi-Fi connection and PC Bluetooth registration are separate. Support may vary depending on the device model and network, and WindTouch does not support infrared (IR) remotes.

Questions about using the WindTouch app

Can I use my phone as a wireless mouse?

It can be used with Android phones that support Bluetooth HID input and the target PC. After connecting, check cursor movement and clicks directly.

Is it an app to control a PC screen remotely over the internet?

The PC operation described here refers to mouse and keyboard input connected via Bluetooth. It is different from using a remote desktop to stream your PC screen to a mobile phone.

Can all TVs be controlled?

It can be used on supported TVs and set-top boxes. You need to check the connection method and operation for each model, and devices that only support infrared cannot be operated like an IR remote control.

What should I do if input does not work after connecting?

Check the target window for PC input and the Bluetooth input connection. For the TV, check if it is on the same network and whether the connection has been approved. Detailed troubleshooting for each situation can be found in the FAQ.
