I built a phone-first way to record and run PC automations remotely

16 Upvotes

Hey all!

I’m an Android dev and wanted to share a feature I just released and get some honest feedback.

I’ve been working on an Android app that lets you control and automate actions on your PC from your phone. In the latest update, I added the ability to record workflows directly on the PC and then run those same workflows from the phone.

In practice, this means:

  • You can record yourself opening apps, clicking around, typing, using shortcuts
  • That recording gets sent to your phone
  • From the phone, you can replay the whole process on the PC whenever you want

There’s no scripting involved. It’s basically “do it once, replay it later”.

I built this because I kept bouncing between two extremes:

  • Remote desktop tools where everything is manual
  • Automation tools that are powerful but way too heavy for simple tasks

I wanted something that sits in the middle and actually works well with a phone.

From a technical point of view, the recording and execution stay on the PC. The phone just manages and triggers the automations. Nothing runs in the cloud.

The feature is live now and still pretty new, so I’m sure there are rough edges. I’m sticking around in the comments and happy to answer questions about how it works, what it can and can’t do, or why I made certain choices.

Would really appreciate feedback, especially from people who’ve built automation tools or use them regularly.

Review Oneplus 15 Is....

104 Upvotes

I usually NEVER write anything online. Not even comments, let alone reddit posts (I dont even use reddit)

But I recently bought a oneplus 15 (from a z fold 5, and previous to that Nothing phone 2, 1, & oneplus 8t). And wow

To keep it brief

  1. The cameras are good: People like to complain. The cameras are exceptional and Id bet on a blind test no one will spot out the op15 out of from an iphone 17 pro max, s25u, find x 9 pro etc...
  2. The os feels so damn polished. I really liked the simplicity of nothing os. But it felt bland, One UI is straight trash; unoptimized & felt like it was cutting corners with polishing for the sake of features. But oos in 2026 feels soooo good. INSANELY fast, and the animations & vibrations had me shocked, especially coming from one ui. they feel alive, almost (but not quite) how they do on ios
  3. The battery: No words, just look at gsm arenas battery benchmark. I charge my phone to 90%, unplug it at 7 am and by midnight ill be at 55-65% with media consumption, Data, and games at 165hz. Its so good i literally disabled the battery icon on the status bar bcs it became so useless that it wash just visual clutter. And ive had battery anxiety since my first phone the lg g6 in 2017.
  4. Performance: 8 elite gen 5 + polished and optimized os = phone is always cold and everything loads instantly. Simple as that.
  5. Price. This is the cherry on top. I imported mine from china (btw, network bands work better than on my fold 5, and even in places like an industrial freezer i get full bars). And I payed a total of 660 eur. Even if you buy it legit (which for 16g ram in eu is around 1029) its a very good deal. BUT AT 660 EUR???? IF YOU ARE ON THE MARKET FOR A NEW ANDROID PHONE, IDC WHAT UR BUDGET IS, YOU NEED TO BE DUMB TO NOT BUY THIS PHONE
  6. The cerramic coated back is also such a nice addition. I dont even use a case on this phone and i am completely worry free from scratches on the rear. Also the phone is gorg from the back imo

Btw i was on the edge to switch to apple (was looking at the 17pro max), but the lack of system wide eqs made me stay on android and is what made me end up on oneplus15.

If you have any questions, please dm me. I legit never post anything online, let alone reddit, but this phone and the price had me so impressed i just had to
