Android phone mirroring and control
This cluster consists of tools that mirror and control Android phones from a desktop or allow phones to remotely control PCs, typically over USB, Wi-Fi, or local networks, with mouse and keyboard input. Dated entries appear sporadically from May 2018 to July 2026, with a slight concentration of three in June 2026, but no overall trend is evident. Among members with activity signals, mirror-kit leads with 10 stars, followed by G1_Extended with 9 stars and mirador with 2 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
