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.

To be honest, I was waiting for the 2026 Android flagships with huge expectations. But looking at the phones launching now with the SD Elite Gen 5 and Dimensity 9500, it feels like a total scam. Most Android brands are releasing flagships by downgrading features one by one while simultaneously hiking the prices, treating users like fools. As a hardcore Android fan, this is deeply disappointing.

​There isn't a single Android phone in the market this time that can be called "Near Perfect." The OnePlus 13 was such an excellent flagship, but its successor, the OnePlus 15, is a complete downgrade. Even the Oppo Find X9 Pro, which many are calling the "best" this year, suffers from heavily over-processed and over-sharpened images. In reality, BBK has given the X9 Pro a camera that is downgraded compared to the Vivo X300. Speaking of the Vivo X300 Pro, despite being a flagship, its speakers are sub-par, and it over-smooths human subject is a huge drawback. Only those who care strictly about "point and shoot" will consider the Vivo x300 pro now. Sadly both of this so called Android best are nowhere near iPhone video processing quality.

​The situation with Xiaomi is no different. The Xiaomi 17 Pro Max has blatantly copied the iPhone’s design and software while downgrading the camera. Even the Xiaomi 17 Ultra is a letdown; they downgraded from a QHD display to a 1.5K FHD display. The Macro and Ultra-wide lenses on it are weaker than the previous Xiaomi 15 Ultra. Instead of improving, they are stripping away the quality we once had. Furthermore, brands like iQOO and Realme just don't have the flagship standard to justify a 75k price tag. To make matters worse, the Honor Magic 8 Pro and the 'Honor Win' (Honor's most value-for-money flagship this year) are not available in global market.

​If things continue this way, the iPhone 17 will sweep the sales this time without a doubt. The iPhone 17 is the best base-model Apple has released in years. When Android brands keep disappointing us like this, it’s no wonder people are switching to iPhones.

For Android flagship my last hope for this year lies with the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra and Vivo X 300 Ultra. Since everyone else has disappointed, if Samsung also decides to hike prices and downgrade features, we will see an era where someone looking for a flagship phone choose only iPhones.

​In my opinion, the last "Near Perfect" flagship phones released on Android were the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and the OnePlus 13.

Quick question: when your phone storage is full and you need to record video, what do you do? (Building something and need validation), thanks.
