About QtScrcpy

QtScrcpy is an open-source desktop application for displaying and controlling Android devices in real time via USB or a network connection. It does not require root privileges, runs on GNU/Linux, Windows, and macOS, and targets lightweight operation, 30–60 fps, 1920×1080 or higher quality, 35–70 ms latency, and about one second to display the first frame. Nothing is installed on the device.

It supports custom keymap scripts that map keyboard and mouse actions to phone touches, with default scripts for TikTok and some games, including PUBG Mobile. Group control lets a user operate all connected phones at the same time.
