- Provide an apps launcher to launch apps in "Desktop mode" (work with "scrcpy" tool) and on external physical display (work with "AG Mouse" app)
- Change width/height/dpi of primary (phone/tablet) and external (TV/Monitor) displays
- Automatically showing or hiding "AG Displays" app logo on an external display when opening or closing "AG Mouse" app respectively

This app does not require root access.

This app requires the API from Shizuku app. So user need to install Shizuku app on Google Play store as specified in below link.

In order to enable "Desktop mode", you must turn on below options in "Developer Options" on your devices
1. Stay awake
2. Enable freeform windows

The recommendation is to use this app for Samsung phones on Android 11 or newer because it was tested very carefully on these devices and Android versions. However, the app can still work for other devices like Google Pixel... and other lower Android versions but not all of devices and Android versions were tested. (Please be noted that before installing it and please don't give bad comments/ratings due to using it on unrecommended devices and Android versions. Please email me if you need any technical support for using this app. Thanks)

Ratings and reviews

The app is useful for my specific usecase. I have an old Xreal Air glasses. And to utilize their full screen (and avoid letterboxing inside the glasses), I need my phone to force a 16:9 aspect ratio. This app can do it. There are some glitches for touch navigation but it's good enough. Thanks dev :)

The AG display app nearly terrified me when it shrank my phone's screen, disabling navigation buttons. I almost did a factory reset but opted for resetting phone settings instead, losing display and battery settings but keeping my data. You can actually change resolutions from AG and back to normal. BUT IT'S NOT FUN. There should be warnings in the first place.

Please, are you able to create the setting of adding more virtual displays on the list instead of just one? Also, I cannot control applications on display without at least a touchpad & keyboard. I use this app on Chromecast, but when separately streaming another app, I'm not able to control it. Please can you solve this? Thanks.
