New

• Pinch-to-zoom for desktop view on multitouch devices
• Window mode for desktop view: Triple tap to focus on tapped window (e.g. to focus on YouTube-Video)

I joined this forums just to let you know that this app is almost perfect! love it!
I got a mouse app, and a desktop viewer app, but this pretty much outdoes em both, especially since its all in the one app..
wish I could try it out with the keyboard in use too, though..

gonna keep playing with this one for sure

@Shephurd
I'm happy you like it!
As stated in post #1, you can get a licence key for Beta testing. Just send me a PM!

A new Version is ready for testing!

Major Improvements

• Many new features for File Explorer: Copy, Delete, Rename etc. (Multiple selection of files by draging on icons)
• Compatibility with Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich)
• Option to set vibration intensity
• Better gesture handling to prevent unintentional panel scrolling

The App is great something which i was looking for.
I have a robot with a Laptop running windows 7 fitted to it. The laptop will video the robots surroundings and based on that it will control the robot. I have a small software in windows 7 which does this.
Can you tell me is it possible to see the video in my mobile (android). I also want to control the robot from my mobile . Is it possible?

@subhendusc
Technically it would be possible indeed. But as TouchRemote is not designed for this kind of appliance it will not be handy to control your robot I guess.
Current options are:
1. If you show the camera output on the desktop of the laptop you can watch it on your phone.
2. If you can control your robot via keyboard or mouse input you can use TouchRemote to some extend.

However, tell me more about your robot project! How do you capture the video? How do you control the robot?

I improved the keyboard considerably:

• Selectable layout: QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY or JCUKEN (Cyrillic)
• Special characters and numbers by Tap+Hold
• Numeric pad with arrow keys, additional symbols and smileys
• Control keys and function keys
• Simulation of depressed CTRL, ALT and WIN keys (Tab+Hold)
• Multi touch support for fast typing

Full changelog

I hope it works fine on your devices!?

Changes

• German language added
• Mouse control improved
• Independent configuration of TCP and UDP ports now possible
• Help pages updated

Changes

• App is now almost completely usable in landscape orientation (missing control panels will be added with the next update)
• Hardware Keyboards should now work correctly

If you have a hardware keyboard please let me know if it works (incl. Ctrl etc.). Thanks!

Many thanks to all Beta testers!

There still is a Beta version (Google Play: TouchRemote BETA) that has newest features and improvements included (but possibly bugs as well). If you wish you can install the release version in parallel (Google Play: TouchRemote - PC Remote).
