DeskDock: The Android Equivalent of Universal Control


DeskDock can be likened to the Universal Control feature found in iPadOS and macOS, providing similar functionality across devices. This app can also be seen as an unofficial successor to ShareKM, or as an Android version of Synergy. Additionally, it serves as a Virtual KVM Switch or Software KVM Switch solution.

Accessibility Features


For Android O and later versions, DeskDock utilizes an Accessibility Service to display a mouse cursor above the System UI. This service is specifically designed for this purpose and is essential for ensuring a consistent user experience, particularly for users with motor impairments.
