Has anyone else managed to find a good way to use Android to control their Mac? I recently came across a method that lets me use my Android phone as a mouse or trackpad for my Mac. I thought it was an interesting way to bring the two platforms together, especially with Bluetooth. The setup required some tinkering with permissions and gestures. I'm curious if others have tried something similar and what your experiences have been. Did you run into any issues with Bluetooth or gestures? Any advice on making the connection more stable would be great.
Opting for less crowded settings might improve the connection when you're using both devices. If you notice lag, adjust the trackpad gestures sensitivity in macOS. Sometimes a simple restart on both devices after setting changes can surprisingly smooth out the hiccups. Have you noticed if certain apps or tasks make your setup more glitchy?
Getting those permissions correctly configured is crucial for smoother integration. Remote Magic Trackpad could definitely be worth a look if you're dealing with Bluetooth connectivity challenges. It worked well for me, especially when I made sure my Mac was free of other connected Bluetooth devices. Adjusting gesture settings might also help you achieve better control with your Android.
