Free and open source
Your PC,
at your phone’s size.
Remote desktop squeezes a whole monitor onto a phone. These two free tools bring over what you actually need, redrawn for the phone: your editor, your windows, your servers.
Desktop to mobile, not desktop to desktop
| Remote desktop | desktoptomobile | |
|---|---|---|
| What you get | the whole desktop | one editor or one window |
| Size | the PC screen, shrunk | laid out again at the phone’s size |
| Input | touches turned into mouse coordinates | tap to click, type in any language |
| Status | pixels only | windows, tray icons and servers as lists |
handideYour own VS Code, on your phone.
Run it in a project folder and scan the QR code. Your installed VS Code, your extensions and your AI agents (Claude Code, Codex and others), with a touch layer on top: code full screen, and the files, terminal and AI in drawers. Not a fork, not a cloud IDE.
- Your extensions and agents, as they are
- Korean, Japanese and any IME through a native input sheet
- Files never leave the PC

handremoteYour PC’s windows, at your phone’s size.
See the open windows, widgets, tray icons and servers by category. Tap a window and it is laid out again at the phone’s size, so the app redraws itself instead of shrinking; tap, scroll and type in it. Close it and the window gets its size back.
- Windows, widgets, tray and listening servers in one list
- Nothing is sent to a window that is not in front
- Optional helper for UAC prompts and the lock screen
