Comments on KDE Connect for Android

★★★★☆ jordan hall · May 8, 2026
In the presentation remote section there is a button labeled pointer. If you hold that button it lets you control the mouse via gyro. In the remote input section you can enable gyro for mouse input but it's always on. Is there anyway to add a button in the remote input section that would allow us to rachet the gyro similarly to what's possible in the presentation remote part of the app?
★★★★★ Shaun Xenon · Jun 14, 2026
If you use Linux and Android devices, you absolutely need KDE Connect in your life!
★★★★★ Balaji Yadav · May 25, 2026
Kde connect app on Android not showing send clipboard option
★★★★★ قصي أبوعمر · Jun 6, 2026
First and most is: it's from KDE community. There are no ads. And it's FLOSS. It makes finding your phone easier by ringing it from the computer or other phone.
★★☆☆☆ Gail Wynand · Jun 7, 2026
It is not as reliable as it used to be. Sometimes the files are sent to the computer, but often they don't, or if they are sent, they appear like for two seconds on the KDE Linux computer and then disappear and the "Receiving file (failed)" notifications popup
★☆☆☆☆ Mahmoud Ibrahim · Jun 1, 2026
You broke notification sync with your last update, when the device sends the notifications screen off. I had to downgrade using the f-droid version.
★★☆☆☆ A Yashwanth · Apr 25, 2026
It works for some time and looses connection. It doesn't reconnect even after I restart Mac app. I have to unpair on my phone and then re-pair. After a while the same issue repeats. I used Windows phone link, and it has 2 way clipboard sync. But I have to click on send clipboard from the notifications every time I want to send clipboard. When I use share context menu in Android, this app doesn't show up. Which means I need to open this app manually and then find the file and share it. Unusable.
★★☆☆☆ Riley · Jun 1, 2026
Works, then it doesn't. Seems like the motto of kde is just "will initialize perfectly, but do nothing for no reason without give zero information in the journal" when it does work, its amazing and useful when needed. Its unreliability diminishes that entirely for me as I can only find myself being able to bank on the Run Command feature working
