If you cannot move your mouse and/or do not see icons in the dock, please follow these instructions
Installation | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
The first step is to install the server application on your computer so that the Mobile Mouse app can connect to your computer. Please follow the installation instructions below.
| ||||
Server Setup | ||||
Once you start the app, you will see an icon of a mouse on your menu bar if you are running a Mac, or an icon in your system tray if you are on a PC. To access the server settings, click the menu item on the Mac menu bar, or double click on the icon in the system tray. To quit the server, simply select Quit from the menu items on the Mac, or right click on the icon in the system tray on a PC. | ||||
Testing the connection | ||||
We recommend that before you purchase the app from the app store you run this simple test to make sure that your iPhone can connect to the server properly. To do this, please open Safari on your iPhone or iPod touch and enter the following url: Once the page loads on Safari, simply enter the IP and port number that are shown on the server and tap the connect button. If you are unable to connect, please refer to the troubleshooting steps below for help. If you are unable to connect using this page, the app won't be able to connect either. | ||||
Server Settings | ||||
The Server tab contains all the settings related to networking the application.
| ||||
Program Setup | ||||
By default, the server is set up for the most common Media and Web applications for your operating system. As we develop new application remotes, they will be automatically downloaded onto your server every day. However, if we are missing the media app you need to control, you can easily create a remote for it through the server. To do this, click the 'Program List' button on the main server screen. In the program list, you will see a list of Managed Programs and a list of User Defined Programs. The managed programs are the ones that are downloaded and maintained by us. The user defined programs are the ones that are created and maintained by you. If you want to use your own settings for a program that is on the managed programs list, just uncheck it from this list after you have created your own defninition for that application. To add a new application, click on the Add button and select the executable. Once you have selected it, you will be presented with all the buttons that are available for that type of program. You can either set a keyboard combination to trigger that action in the program you are controlling, or you can write a script (Applescript on the Mac, VBScript on the PC) to do it. For Media applications, there are 8 additional custom keys that you can name and program to control any additional actions that are not covered by the main buttons. Also, for Media applications, you can check off the 'Enable scroll pad navigation' option. When checked off, this option will allow you to use the scroll pad to nagivate programs which use arrow keys to navigate their menus (please see our demo video for examples). |

As you type on your iPhone, the letters will be typed in real time on your computer as well as on the screen of the app. You can type a Tab key by double tapping the Return key. Directly above the keyboard are 4 modifier keys. These are the same that you would find on your desktop keyboard. Shift, Ctrl, Win, Alt on the PC and Shift, Ctrl, Option, Command on the Mac.

The media screen will automatically come up anytime you are using a media program that has itself set up in the server settings. Additionally, you can quickly switch back to the last most recently run media program by pressing the music note button on the toolbar.

Just copy the image on your computer, and it will be in the clipboard on your device and ready for you to paste into the 'Messages' app. Additionally we have added a clipboard notification option as shown above.

Graphic Tablet | ||
The graphics tablet allows you to use your iOS device as a graphics tablet for your computer. To select your stylus, go to the app settings, then to Options, scroll down to the Tablet options and tap the button labeled Stylus. Selecting the Touch stylus will allow you to use your finger or any non-pressure sensitive stylus. The stylus options below 'Touch' are pressure sensitive ones that are supported by Mobile Mouse. Currently pressure sensitivity is only supported on OS X. After you select your stylus of choice, the selected stylus logo will show up in the tablet screen next to the status light. The status light will turn green if your stylus was able to connect to the app. Once you load the tablet screen, a light blue box will appear on your computer screen. This workspace corresponds to the one on your iOS device and will match the orientation of your device. If you want to resize the workspace just pinch the screen to grow/shrink the workspace on your computer. To emulate the hover feature found in most traditional graphic tablets, the app will treat any activity that is below a minimum pressure amount as mouse movement. Once you press hard enough where the pressure value exceeds the minimum pressure amount, the tablet will start drawing and responding to the pressure values. Depending on your stylus brand and how it has been calibrated this value may need to be adjusted to your needs. This can be down by adjusting the “Min Pressure” slider in the Tablet options. | ||

If the mouse tracking is choppy after connecting, please check the server settings and make sure the status light next to Peer-To-Peer is green. If it is yellow, try connecting again. You must be using iOS 7+, OS X 10.10+, and a Mac that supports WIFI Direct and Bluetooth LE. When you click to enable the Peer To Peer option the server will tell you if your computer is not supported. USB: This option will connect over a standard USB cable. The option must be enabled in the server settings as well as the app settings.
