Ratings and reviews

Full 5 stars for simply existing! Can't resize an app. The scroll buttons are painful. Fast scroll on long-press would help a lot. No support for drag gesture. Left clicking is nicely implemented. Just hover the cursor where you want to click and then tap anywhere on the screen. I can't however find a way to right-click or control-click. It also seems to run in a continuous loop which drains the battery. Hopefully these will be addressed in time. Thank you so much for the much needed tool!

linkage error !it says that Jre4 Android supports upto java class file version 61; while I am using version 65; unable to run class file!i think you have to update your jre! any way nice effort!

I installed this app in an attempt to run the GpsPrune JAR on my phone and I'm impressed that it opens. Unfortunately the scaling is useless as it only applies to portrait view for some reason, which means you're left with a very small view of the program you're running. Then to add to that, when you click through the menus of whatever program you're running, e.g GpsPrune, the new popup windows are often halfway off the screen with no way to move them around. It's a good start though.
