Splashtop Personal is a free (for home use) tool, which in combination with a mobile application of the same name allows you to control your computer from a tablet or smartphone. The tool is available for all popular system platforms (Windows, Linux and Mac OS) and gives you the ability to remotely connect to your computer through devices such as iPad, iPhone/iPod, Kindle Fire and many others, working under the control of Android. The tool itself is virtually maintenance-free.

It is enough to register a free user account, bind your computer to it, properly configure the application on a mobile device and we can enjoy the view of our desktop on a mathphone or tablet. Splashtop allows you to work with remote files and use applications installed on the Mac or PC on the tablet screen. The manufacturer prides itself on the fact that advanced video transmission technology means you can even watch movies and play games - up to 30 frames per second will be displayed on a tablet or smartphone.

In addition, the tool allows you to stream music from your computer and can also be used for presentations if you're on the same network. The quality of the image displayed on a mobile device depends on the speed of the Internet connection. The free Personal version allows you to connect remotely only between devices within the same network.

If you want to bypass this restriction, you need to purchase a paid subscription, which will enable you to use the 3G modem (if any) built into your mobile device for the connection.
