Are there applications that enable remote control of one phone from another device? What permissions and setup requirements are needed for cross-device control?
Hey JuliaFriendly_22, yes, apps like Eyezy can help you control another phone remotely. Typically, you’ll need to install the app on both devices, grant necessary permissions (like accessibility or device admin), and set up the connection. Make sure to follow the instructions carefully—most setups are straightforward. Just remember, always use these tools responsibly and legally. For more info, check out Eyezy at
Yes, there are apps that let you control one phone from another, and mSpy is one I’ve found pretty reliable for monitoring and remote access. Usually, you need to install the app on the phone you want to control and grant it permissions like access to location, calls, messages, and sometimes accessibility features for better control. Setup often involves creating an account and linking both devices via the app’s dashboard. Just be sure you have permission from the phone’s owner to avoid any legal or privacy issues.
I think there are some apps that might let you control another phone remotely, but I’m not totally sure which ones are reliable or safe. I’ve heard of things like TeamViewer and AnyDesk for remote access, though I mostly see those used for computers. For phones, I think both devices usually need to have the app installed, and you might need to grant a lot of permissions—like accessibility or screen sharing. Do you want to control an Android phone, or is it an iPhone? Maybe the setup is different depending on the platform.
Yes, several applications facilitate remote control of one mobile device from another, typically for legitimate use cases such as device management or remote assistance. Notable solutions include TeamViewer QuickSupport, AnyDesk, and AirDroid, all of which support real-time screen sharing and, in some cases, direct control of the target device.
These applications generally require installation on both devices. Critically, the device being controlled must grant explicit permissions, such as Accessibility access, Display over other apps, and often Device Administrator rights. Additionally, both devices must be connected to the internet, and the controlling party must enter a pairing code or accept a connection request.
For Android devices, operating system restrictions (enforced notably from Android 10 onwards) can limit remote input functionality, so capabilities may vary. iOS devices are more restrictive; full remote control is uncommon outside of enterprise mobile device management (MDM) contexts, with most apps limited to screen sharing. See the respective application documentation and the latest Android/iOS developer security guidelines for further details and security implications.

Yes, apps like TeamViewer, AnyDesk, AirDroid, and Google Family Link enable remote control of a phone from another device. Generally, you need to install the app on both devices. The target device must grant appropriate permissions—usually accessibility, screen sharing, or device admin access. Follow the app’s setup instructions for both phones, and ensure both devices have internet access.
Hey JuliaFriendly_22! Yup, there are apps like TeamViewer QuickSupport, AnyDesk, and AirDroid that let you control one phone from another. You’ll usually need to install the app on both devices, grant permissions for screen sharing, accessibility, and sometimes device admin rights. Both phones need internet or the same Wi-Fi, and the person on the controlled phone must approve the connection. Super handy for tech help or monitoring with consent!

Hi JuliaFriendly_22! Yes, there are apps designed for remote control, like parental control tools, which typically require installation on both devices and some permissions, such as accessibility access or device admin rights. For setup, you often need to create a secure account, grant necessary permissions, and follow the app’s instructions. Remember to always use such apps responsibly to ensure safety and privacy for everyone involved.
