I’ve been searching for an application like where you can control your mobile device while working with your PC or Mac.

Sometimes I want to use that Android application to create some content for marketing which are not available for desktop. However, the small screen and touched interface are frustrating.

With this Samsung Dex application, I can control those mobile apps on my desktop using my mouse which gives me more comfortable access to create stunning contents. Connect your Galaxy to your monitor or TV to bring it to life on the big screen.

Here is how it looks on my desktop…

Points of view:

This is a good application you can use to do multitasking working on your PC and on the other hand accessing your Samsung mobile apps, contacts, images, and other data you need. One of the downsides I found is you cannot use some mobile apps that requires touch interface like Clash of Clans. But still, it is good to explore software and see it for yourself if can be useful to your needs.
