Remote Phone Call

About this app

Just Remote Phone lets you manage your Android phone from your Windows PC without constantly picking up your phone. SMS messages, call history and contacts are synchronized over your local Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection, so you can stay focused on your work while keeping full access to your phone.

Unlike cloud-based solutions, communication takes place directly between your Android phone and your Windows PC. No cloud service is required, and the Windows client does not permanently store your SMS messages, call history or contacts.

Privacy

Your Android phone communicates directly with your Windows PC over your local network or Bluetooth.

SMS messages and call history are synchronized only while the devices are connected. The Windows client does not permanently store SMS messages or call history. Your communication data are never uploaded to a cloud service and remain under your control.

Why SMS and Call Log permissions are required

The primary purpose of Just Remote Phone is to synchronize SMS messages and call history from your Android phone to your connected Windows PC.

READ_SMS is required to synchronize, display and reply to SMS messages from the desktop.

READ_CALL_LOG is required to synchronize incoming, outgoing and missed calls so users can access and manage their call history from their PC.

Without these permissions, the application's primary functionality cannot operate.

Ratings and reviews

I tried this a couple of years ago. Very useful. Click on a phone number in a browser window or in Outlook on your PC, or copy and paste a number into the desktop app and it will make your phone dial that number. The only reason I uninstalled it the first time is because the phone app was a battery hog. I was hoping that it is better now, so I tried it again. Unfortunately, it is still a battery hog. No way to close the app except to force a shutdown in the app properties.

Works great, especially now that the Handsfree (bluetooth) mode connects much better with pc. Only issue i have is that when sending SMS, line breaks are lost in the sent message, so i have to remember to add a space after each line to help make it more readable. i've sent the dev multiple emails on this issue, but no reply. :(

Latest version of RPC now a winner! I tried using this last year but found bluetooth connection to my phone hit and miss, even when the phone was right next to my PC ! This made it frustrating so I stopped using it. However since the last update it reconnects fine as soon as I am in range - I have thick walls and it still works up to 50 feet. Integration with Outlook, Excel, and Office 365 perfect, either use the icon or right click on something that is a phone number and you can phone or text. I don't use the SMS function as I am now using Google messenger + Google Messenger for Web which allows SMS-MMS & RCS from & to the PC - if I used RPC to SMS it would muck up the sync between the Google apps - no biggy - best to use just one messaging app anyway.
