Controlling Phone from ubuntu desktop?

Is there any way to see my screen and controll my Android smartphone from my Ubuntu 20.04 desktop computer?

(possibly with little to no latency?)


Solution 1:

As ChanganAuto said above, scrcpy is really nifty for this. To get it:

  1. enable ADB on your phone
  2. apt install scrcpy
  3. connect phone via USB (tcp is also possible)
  4. scrcpy
  5. your phone may ask if you want to allow the connection, go ahead with that

Check out the readme on github as well for loads of other options: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
