Doesn't KDE Connect do the same and more?

man that app is ducking unreliable, please stop recommending that thing

How have you found it unreliable? What system are you on? I have had no issues on both Linux and Windows, but I'd be happy to figure out why you're having issues!

i am on linux ubuntu 22.04 . i try to control the pc using my phone screen as trackpad and its on display keyboard but can' achieve that. i also have this gsconnect gnome extension and both my devices are yet to be paired. ngl i am also using this obscure chinese brand called infinix for a phone, so its not necessarily a samsung or a pixel. apparently mouse and keyboard extensions aren't supported on kdeconnect for this device but idk

That's not even barely enough to call it unreliable.

it has multiple one star reviews on flathub, what can i say..i am not the only one at least..

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is it even on Flathub? Last I checked there's a project that is no longer maintained.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i remember looking it up on flat, or less likely on snap-store (i rarely open it..so probbaly flathub yea), and it doesn't to be maintained really i agree

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

The one on Flathub isn't official nor maintained.
