Comments on droidVNC-NG VNC Server for Android

★★★★★ Tim Baverstock · Feb 17, 2024
Works well for my phone! Unfortunately, my actual use case was trying to send my wife's Chromebook screen (actually a £3 HDMI dummy screen) to her old Mac to use it as a second screen. The Mac's Screen Sharing window authenticated and had the right dimensions for whichever of the native or dummy display I selected to send, but only displayed plain black. I'm sure that's not your fault though! I ended up using x-mirage and cast tab/screen.
★★★★★ George Abraham · Jun 23, 2024
Been looking for a VNC Server for Android for many years. This one works without root. Simply amazing!
★★★★★ Eagle Shortforest · Mar 21, 2023
This is a great VNC server for an Android phone. It can cast your phone easily and can be received by any other device using a vnc viewer. Set up is easy.
★★☆☆☆ Ross Little · May 19, 2026
Okay but you can't tell it which network interface to bind to. Which means if you have a vpn like tail scale you can't tell it to bind just to that interface. Instead, it binds to all interfaces. Even those publicly exposed.
★☆☆☆☆ Dana Nutter · May 7, 2025
It works until it doesn't! It connects and does what I want but as soon as the screensaver locks, it's just a blank screen with no way to unlock so useless since I have to go get the phone anyway.
★★☆☆☆ Jeann van Rooyen · Feb 21, 2024
Quite complicated setup, then - rather lacking in responsiveness. Even premium phone, WiFi6, etc. Seen better from Phone Link, Team Viewer, etc.
★★☆☆☆ Calin Marinescu · May 28, 2023
Nice to know it works, but useless without it working over mobile data connection 😞

Description by Christian Beier Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
droidVNC-NG is an open-source VNC server app for local networks. Here's what you can do with it:

- View your Android device remotely with optional screen scaling for better performance.

- Remote-control your Android device with mouse and keyboard (for keyboard Latin-1 charset plus some special keys, supporting any kind of UI widget on Android 14 and newer, on older devices into EditText widgets only). To enable this, you need to activate the AccessibilityService for the app on your device.

- Copy text from a VNC viewer and paste it to your Android device. Server-to-client copy & paste works automatically for text selected in editable text fields or manually by sharing text to droidVNC-NG via Android's Share-To functionality.

- Use keyboard shortcuts to trigger 'Recent Apps' overview, Home, Back, Power, and volume controls.

- Transfer files between an Android device and computer using TightVNC viewer for Windows version 1.3.x.

- Secure your connection with a password. Note that setting a password is mandatory in case you want to access the server using MacOS's built-in Screen Sharing app.

- Choose a custom port for the VNC server.

- Start the server automatically when your Android device boots. On Android 11 and newer this also works with kiosk-mode launchers and lock task mode.

- Connect from your Android device to a listening VNC viewer without opening ports on your router.

- Connect to a UltraVNC-style Mode-2 repeater for remote access through a mediator server.

- Pre-configure default settings via a JSON file or Mobile Device Management.

- Discover your device automatically on the local network via Zeroconf/Bonjour.

- See individual mouse pointers for each connected client on your device.

- Control your Android device directly from any web browser using the built-in noVNC client — no separate VNC viewer required.
