About this app

With Unity Remote 5, you can use an Android device to view and test your game live, right inside the Unity Editor 5.4 or later. Unity Remote 5 makes your Android device act as remote control. It streams touch, accelerometer, gyroscope, webcam and screen orientation change events back to Unity Editor. This is useful for rapid development when you don't want to compile and deploy your project to Android device for each change and prefer to use the Unity Editor Game window instead.
Extended product documentation is available on Unity Manual: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UnityRemote5.html

Ratings and reviews

Great app when you finally now how to use. It took me months to figure out how to use it.But now when I know it saves a lot of development time. It's setting depends on which brand mobile you are using and which os you have. for color os just turn on developer options, and usb debugging. and then there is some unity set up. make sure file transfer is on. and when you get to see your mobile storage in the file explorer. reopen the unity set up some. then it should work well.

This app works flawlessly. If it doesn't work for you it's because you need to set your build settings to Android in the unity editor, and close unity. Turn on developer mode on your device and, turn on USB DEBUGGING in the developer settings. Once you plug the USB into your computer, make sure file transfer is selected, and let it install the drivers it needs before re-opening unity. There are some good YouTube videos that walk you through it, step by step if you still can't get it working.

Works perfect for me. Read this before giving up. Some people have trouble because they aren't enabling "Developer Options" on their device. After enabling that, go into those settings and enable USB debugging. Then unplug and replug back in your device with unity open. Make sure Unity is set to "Android" in your build settings. If it's building for a Windows machine it's not going to have Android compatibility. If it's still not working, update unity.
