For years, DroidMote has been the gold standard for turning your phone into a wireless mouse, keyboard, or gamepad for your Android TV, tablet, or phone. But the big question always was: Do I need root?
Avoid fake "modded" APKs. Get the official "DroidMote Server" from the developer's site or a trusted mirror. The free client is on Google Play.
So I tested the DroidMote Server without root on my unrooted Samsung phone connected to my Mi Box. Here’s the honest take:
❌ Cannot simulate touch in games (e.g., PUBG, COD). ❌ Cannot control system UI (settings, notifications). ❌ No global keyboard shortcuts.
