AirDroid is a remote access app that lets you control your Android device with your laptop or PC.

Even if you keep your smartphone with you at all times, there may come a point when you need to access it remotely. AirDroid is a powerful piece of software that gives you full control over your Android app from anywhere in the world, and it is compatible with almost any device. As long as you have a decent internet connection, you will be able to connect to your smartphone to send texts, access your apps, or even download files.

Unlike many other remote access apps, AirDroid is incredibly easy to use, and this software should take you no more than a few minutes to set up. After the app has been downloaded on your smartphone or tablet, you must then create an account and set your permissions. Once the account has been made, your phone should be accessible from any browser.

As an added bonus, Sand Studio has recently made an AirDroid app for Windows as well. Instead of logging into your device through your browser, you can connect automatically through the app. That app essentially mirrors your smartphone, and you are going to have full access to all of its files and features. You even have the option of playing smartphone games through the app with your mouse and keyboard.

When it comes to remote access apps, it will be tough to find any software that can compete with AirDroid. This app is extremely user-friendly and packed with all of the features that you will ever need.
