Remote Mouse Reviews

by SOLOW Coastin

Like you may have seen in other reviews, I too have had a decent experience with RemoteMouse within the first month or two of use.
No connectivity issues, no glitches or bugs, and it operates very smoothly. I just open up RemoteMouse , PC is immediately connected and fully operable through RemoteMouse . How convenient!
Why pay for an app that functions perfectly fine in its "free" stage?? I could pay for it. I mean, its only $15 for the full experience. Not bad! Well, heres the thing. Once you make it very clear that you'd rather stick with the basic free version, eventually the whole app just goes to $#!+. Strange.
With that being said.. last week I thought to myself "maybe I'll just buy the pro version. I've used RemoteMouse long enough to trust it", despite my previous disappointment.

Well.. I paid the $14 and to this very DAY, it does NOT WORK. My PC shows up in the connections list, phone and pc both connected to the same WiFi. But to no surprise, I keep getting an "unable to connect" alert. Same thing I kept getting before I wasted $15 on this joke of an app.

In conclusion, I'm done. Highly convinced I have been scammed and I will be reporting RemoteMouse. Good riddance.

I’m unaware if it’s some sort of error but I am not unable to use it at all, used to show my computer via wifi just fine, I would pay if I was given the option, and not forced. seems very slimy to allow me to use it and suddenly now I can’t connect via bluetooth when it won’t show up via wifi, like it always would.

excuse the run on sentences but I don’t care to write this review with perfect grammar because of how lame of an action this is, I was allowed to use bluetooth to connect to my computer now I can’t, I can’t even use it so I might as well delete RemoteMouse.
I don’t know who’s idea it was to try and nickel and dime us but you’ve lost a formerly loyal customer. until I can at the very LEAST use remote mouse via wifi I’m not gonna consider spending 14 dollars, I was fine with this glitch when I could also use bluetooth but they moved it to be behind a paywall, I’m probably just gonna find some way of solving this without their app such as a touch screen bluetooth mouse alternative. don’t waste your 14 dollars on people who clearly don’t care. I may be wrong given this is some sort of software error, but it doesn’t seem like that, it seems very suspicious.

edit:

I’m not the only person having ip/wifi connectivity issues, so it isn’t something on our parts. if I can’t use the base service for free without all the extras you don’t deserve my money. I’m sure the paid version works, not cool guys.

First off, I use to love RemoteMouse it was perfect for a lazy person like me and it ran seamlessly on Windows 10 and Mac fine. But, when I updated my computer to Windows 11, RemoteMouse became a nightmare and in some situations it worked and other it just gives a connection failure. The manual connection connect function doesn’t do anything at all. RemoteMouse need a update for Windows 11 user because it doesn’t want to work and it so annoying. Thanks for your guys hard work tho!!!

What would make RemoteMouse truly game changing would be some sort of way to customize or “favorite” keys/commands. I think a favorites tab would be an ideal step forward for the Pro version of RemoteMouse .

I find myself constantly having to switch tabs in RemoteMouse trying to find the volume, and then having to switch again for something different such as “task view”

Other than that it is a great app but i won’t use it due to other products working better (Xbox controller, mouse remote, etc.)

RemoteMouse use to work great to allow me to control my computer from a distance, but after coming back to it after a long break it doesn’t seem to work well anymore. There’s something weird about the keyboard keys doesn’t behave in the same way as typing a key on a real keyboard and as such some programs simply won’t recognize inputs from RemoteMouse . Additionally pressing any key not available on an iPhone keyboard think Ctrl, esc, etc has been locked behind a subscription based paywall not that I have much confidence those keys would work either.

RemoteMouse works so well, but the newest redesign, while looking great, has now defaulted to show the keyboard automatically every time I bring up RemoteMouse . This is inconvenient as I’m not generally typing, but rather using it for, you know, the mouse function. My thumb naturally stays towards the bottom of my screen so imagine my surprise when I go to move the mouse and accidentally hit a few random keys instead and end up messing up whatever I was doing on the screen. Yes I can tap to make it disappear, but I’d like to to not show up until I ask it to. The settings doesn’t offer it as an option. Please address this.

Since the upgrade and move of the switch panel and mouse to the bottom of the screen I am having more problems to move the mouse from my phone as the bottom half of the screen now has the panel and the buttons and that requires to slide my finger on the upper screen half which is quickly tiring my whole hand and arm. Also now the option to switch off is way to the right of the switch panel which makes is hard to hold the phone, slide the panel and to push the button using my left hand only.
For that reason I would like to switch to the older version with the switch panel and mouse at the top of the screen which eases up the use for me and makes RemoteMouse more accessible.

RemoteMouse works great most of the time, however while I am using RemoteMouse , I tend to lock my device in between using RemoteMouse (as you would put down a TV remote when you’ve found a program to watch) rendering me unable to reconnect unless I delete RemoteMouse on both devices and reinstall it. This usually is the only way to get it to work again. Manually reconnecting the devices just results in a connection failure message. This is why I haven’t bought the Pro version, to avoid complications of restoring purchases every time I have to reinstall RemoteMouse just to connect again. When it is connected however, it works well. The connection problems are the only issue I’ve faced so far. Thanks for RemoteMouse , it’s saved a lot of getting up and walking to the laptop to change anything on it. Oh and the iPad app not having the keypad accessible is also quite a restriction, but even on the iPad app I face this “connection failed” issue, so it’s not just my devices.

Giving it 4 starts due to Pro Version keeps popping up on start up and only lets you use 70% of the options but still lets you use the important options witch is the mouse and keyboard witch mostly matters other then that, Super easy to setup. works Instantly everytime you open it. Had lots of options I have been using RemoteMouse for years and anytime I get a new phone it automatically syncs up on it’s own. Don’t need any other app. I mite just buy the pro version it would be worth it.

by Zaqwsxcdeef

It’s a amazing app I love it honestly it’s beyond useful for me and the fact there’s keyboard and the other options I only have the free version but the features that come with the paid version would make this a 5 star for sure the reaction speed is nice the mouse is a a little slow but I think that’s good for precision there’s a few things I think could be better like the left click hold it’s a double tap hold it’s a little weird and sometimes doesn’t work but honestly it’s not a problem the scroll bar sometimes doesn’t work like for Netflix app and actual apps but works fine on websites but everything bad or wrong is so minor it’s not even a problem I just wish I had the paid version but I have issues with Apple payments or I’d get the paid version I highly recommitment RemoteMouse it’s great

Download app, download desktop app, open desktop app, boom. You’re set up. I can’t feel any latency at all and the mouse feels very fluid. There are many options to adjust things like sensitivity if you would like. RemoteMouse has all kinds of functionality beyond the trackpad, too, including a keyboard, media controls, taskbar selector, function keys, etc.. I would recommend RemoteMouse to anyone. It saved me from buying a wireless keyboard and mouse for use on the tv. Now, I wouldn’t recommend it for intense work or gaming, but it’s great for simple remote use. I like to use it to open games on my computer, then I use an Xbox controller to actually play them. Overall, for the functionality it promises, RemoteMouse does great.

The synchronization with my device iOS and my PC it’s fantastic. It’s very easy to use and it’s very helpful even more in those moments when you don’t want to use keyboard and mouse anymore. I recommend 100%.I did all the steps, using it feels like a real mouse. Feels smoother, it’s comfortable when you’re typing and moving the mouse toward all the places you need to. Also the remote controller function it’s awesome specially in the moments when you’re relaxing and watching your favorite content. It’s perfect and I recommend RemoteMouse 100%.

The title is not an exaggeration. I was diagnosed with a rare tissue disorder at 21 which left me unable to use a keyboard and mouse for a computer and unable to work physical labor. I had to drop out of college and spent 2 years figuring out what to do with my life before experimenting with Remote Mouse. I am once again able to fully use a computer due to the touch screen instead of using physical keys, and have since re enrolled at university and feel like my life is moving forward again.

My laser mouse died after falling off my desk and I needed a mouse in a hurry- came to RemoteMouse Store and unfortunately tried another app before this one that failed as often as it worked, like every other time. Tried this one and it is perfect- and if you buy the pro version you can even program custom hot keys which is very handy. I really like RemoteMouse and even though I replaced my mouse I still use RemoteMouse a lot, having a track pad is pretty handy. Nice app especially after trying the other one which was completely frustrating- this hasn’t gliched yet!

I do not own a TV, as I use my laptop for TV streaming. I often like to fall asleep to a movie or TV show, and was looking for a remote I could use to turn my laptop off before bed, when I’m done. RemoteMouse is perfect! Not only does it allow me to work on my laptop from afar, but when I go to bed I can use it as a TV remote and either turn my laptop off or put it to sleep. RemoteMouse is fantastic!

I remember trying to use RemoteMouse years ago and it was basically just a lie , you couldn’t type you couldn’t use it as a mouse it was like you could press play on wi does media player or something and rewind lol . It has come a very long ways since then so if you haven’t used it in a while and still have a bad taste in your mouth from it . Trust me I did too but saw some videos , decided to give it a shot and boy am I glad I did , pretty much a game changer , especially if you always are forgetting your mouse or keyboard all the time .. like me ha . A++++ SOLID app guys , good work , actually excellent work !

by Nathaniel Rico

I don’t know for sure, but I think there’s a feature to lock the gyro mouse in place, but it may be only for pro, or it’s a feature that doesn’t exist, in which case I would request an option to toggle the gyro mouse, since it’s a struggle to move the mouse while holding the button down.
Overall, great app, great performance, but just a few tweaks and it should be as right as rain :)

This is so great. I truly love RemoteMouse. It works absolutely perfect for my needs. My needs may be a little different than others, but for me I can't tell you how much of a game changer this was. I watch my computer stuff on my main tv and I usually use a wireless mouse to control things. I was tired of getting up to type or struggling to pause quick enough. So I thought about buying a whole wireless keyboard which would just be more mindless consumerism and waste. Instead, in comes RemoteMouse! Now I can do everything from my phone and, for example, just easily press the space bar to pause most modern media platforms. I will probably buy Pro not because I need it, but because I so much appreciate the developers.

I never leave ratings on apps but today is the first time in 10 years that I have been so fascinated of RemoteMouse! I love the usage of the keyboard and the mouse feature—while I type, I can navigate around the page and expand text boxes if I need. A cute addition is the customization of the wallpaper—I put a picture of myself as a reminder to love myself :)

First off, RemoteMouse is a game changer and a must download. The one suggestion I have is for the sound functionality when you left or right click to NEVER override Bluetooth music. Right now if you are playing a song on your phone it turns off whenever you click. This should be a setting that is defaulted to be off because who would ever want music or whatever they were playing to be turned off and instead here a clicking audio noise. Thanks Dev that made this. You’re awesome!

by Gulibale

Because I lost my mouse it works great my only concern is I paid $1.99 and only one of the functions is available don’t understand why I paid to go pro Win every time I open one of the new functions it asks me to pay $1.99 again not sure if it’s a glitch in the system or what but is the only displeasing thing I have found about RemoteMouse if there is a problem I hope they can fix it and maybe give me my money back if it’s not going to do what I paid for it to do

I have used and loved RemoteMouse for years, across numerous devices, it's never failed me... until now! OK, it's seemingly minor, but actually a huge deal, on ipad the usable surface area on the track bad has been cut off at he edges. It's terrible actually, probably 30-40% of the screen goes unused now. I hate it, I had RemoteMouse rated at 5 stars for years and downgraded to 3 stars because of how much this changes the functionality. Terrible design move. if anything, have one app for mobile and one for iPad.

RemoteMouse was discovered when several keys crashed on my laptop. My backup laptop is at my other residence and I use my computer for business and casual affairs. I couldn’t even type in my passwords for important websites. Thank you Remote(mighty)mouse for this wonderful application. My new keyboard is on its way but I may still use your app. I HIGHLY recommend this product- great work!

by Koublik

I’ve downloaded tons of games and apps from store, but this is simply RemoteMouse that’s working from step one till the end. No adds no bugs no delayes nothing annoying. In hand you get so easy and simple mouse app and on the other very detailed.
One more thing would be useful and thats the horizontal scroll bar underneath the mouse pad.
Thanks for RemoteMouse.

by TiffTrimmy

Our toddler is always losing the mouse so I went on the hunt for a good app to use my phone as a mouse. This one works great for us. No ads, besides being asked to upgrade every once in a while, which makes it even better. Its simple and straight forward to use. I only wish I could use it with both my phone and my husband’s.

by Super_App_rater

RemoteMouse is extremely good compared to any other app like this. There are yea pop up adds only ones at the top and bottom and not in the way. The only paid for feature is having a horizontal screen. I highly feel that RemoteMouse is better than a mouse. I recommend you get RemoteMouse.

by Alanrojascerro

Not complicated config, it just magically works awesome. Few years a go I would think RemoteMouse was a click bait, but I gave them a chance and I don’t regret. I would love to see my computer screen in my cell phone screen for the next act though, if it is not much to ask 😅😉

by Elderly Banana

Got tired of getting up to change whatever I was streaming from my pc to my tv and this was an absolute perfect solution. Setting it up took me maybe 3 minutes and it was up and working perfectly fine. Definitely recommend.
