KEY FEATURES - Fast, flexible connection Discover compatible devices on your local network automatically, pair through Wireless Debugging with a QR code or a 6-digit pairing code, or connect by IP address. Saved devices can reconnect automatically. - Screen mirroring with touch control View the device screen live and control it directly with taps, swipes, and text input. Capture screenshots, record the screen, rotate the view, and keep the device awake while you work. - TV remote control Control compatible TVs and set-top boxes with a D-pad, touchpad, volume, playback, power, and input keys, plus a number pad and color keys.

Upload files to the device and download them to your iPhone or iPad. - Shell commands Run shell commands on the device, read the output instantly, and keep frequently used commands one tap away. - Live logs Stream system logs in real time, filter by log level or keyword, and export logs as TXT, JSON, or CSV. - Detailed device information Check system version, hardware, CPU, memory, storage, battery, display, network, and security details, then export the full report. - Multi-device workflow Save multiple devices, switch between them quickly, and customize the tab bar so the tools you use most are always within reach. HelloAndro is built for developers, testers, TV owners, and anyone who wants more control over compatible devices without juggling separate utilities.
