## Review summary

Remote Keyboard offers a compelling PC-to-device typing capability that helps users draft and send long messages more easily. However, multiple reviews show repeated concerns about setup clarity, poor documentation, and inconsistent connectivity. Security worries are prominent, including lack of encryption and potential malware risk. Overall value is clear when it works, but onboarding, support, and security gaps are the most frequently mentioned issues.

### Pros

- Enables typing on a computer keyboard to control the mobile device remotely, reducing reliance on the phone’s keyboard.
- Facilitates composing longer messages and sending them wirelessly via a browser interface.
- Frequently praised by users as a valuable tool when it works, with strong appreciation from the community.
- Positive sentiment toward the developer and the app from users who find it useful and reliable when functioning.

### Cons

- Setup and connection steps are unclear, making it hard to know how to connect via web browser.
- Documentation is hard to understand and perceived as poor; support is reportedly lacking.
- Connectivity can be unreliable, with users unable to connect or run into HTTP/browser access issues.
- Security/privacy concerns are recurring, including lack of encryption (no HTTPS/WSS), plaintext LAN communication, and worries about unsafe links or malware risk.
