About Xternal Control: XR & Display
Xternal Control transforms your Android device into a clean, powerful desktop workstation whenever you plug into smart XR glasses, external monitors, portable screens, or TVs. Enjoy true native widescreen output—no Samsung DeX required!
WHY XTERNAL CONTROL?
Most Android phones lack dedicated desktop modes. When you connect your phone to XR glasses or an external display, you usually get a stretched or letterboxed vertical phone screen.
Xternal Control solves this instantly: it unlocks a dedicated, native full-screen external desktop environment on your connected display while transforming your phone into an intuitive, precision touch trackpad controller.
KEY FEATURES
🖥️ True Native Widescreen Display
• Experience true full-screen widescreen output tailored to your external display's native resolution.
• Zero letterboxing, zero pillarboxing—enjoy an authentic big-screen canvas for entertainment, browsing, and productivity.
🖱️ Phone as Touch Trackpad & Remote
• Smooth, low-latency cursor navigation directly from your phone screen.
• Tap to click, double-click, long-press, smooth scrolling, and an interactive zoom slider.
• Essential remote control hotkeys (Home, Back, Display Toggles, and Quick Actions) right at your fingertips.
🚀 Clean, Modern App Launcher
• Clean PC-style interface with a streamlined taskbar and app drawer.
• Search installed apps instantly and pin your daily favorites with one tap for quick launching onto the big screen.
• Launch apps straight into your external display with clean multitasking navigation.
👓 Designed for XR Smart Glasses
• Optimized for AR/XR smart glasses (such as XREAL, Rokid, RayNeo, Viture, and other display glasses).
• Enjoy a massive virtual cinema and desktop screen anywhere you go.
📺 TV, Monitor & Wireless Cast Ready
• Plug-and-play via USB-C DisplayPort (DP Alt Mode) or USB-C to HDMI adapters.
• Compatible with wireless screen casting and Miracast for cable-free big-screen convenience.
⚡ No Root & No Samsung DeX Needed
• Built specifically for all compatible Android smartphones (Pixel, Motorola, Xiaomi, OnePlus, Sony, Oppo, etc.) that support external video output or screen casting.
• Lightweight, clean, and battery-friendly.
HARDWARE COMPATIBILITY
• Wired Mode: Android device supporting DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C or a compatible display adapter.
• Wireless Mode: Any TV or display adapter supporting standard Android Wireless Display / Miracast.
• Displays: Smart XR glasses, portable USB-C monitors, standard desktop monitors, projectors, and smart TVs.
ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE API DISCLOSURE
Xternal Control utilizes the Android AccessibilityService API to enable remote trackpad control and navigation when your device is connected to an external display (such as XR glasses, external monitors, or TVs).
• Why it is required: Android does not natively allow one screen to dispatch touch events to apps running on a secondary screen. The AccessibilityService API enables Xternal Control to simulate cursor clicks, double-taps, long-presses, two-finger scrolling, pinch-to-zoom gestures, and global navigation actions (Back and Home) on the connected external display.
• Data Safety & Privacy: The AccessibilityService API is used exclusively for on-device input dispatch. Xternal Control DOES NOT collect, store, transmit, or share any personal or sensitive user data. It does not monitor keystrokes, personal messages, passwords, or on-screen content.
Take full control of your external screens with Xternal Control!
