Description

ATTENTION: This application requires a server application to be running on the computer. Download the latest server application from https://sites.google.com/site/accelerometermouse/download-server

Accelerometer Mouse is a mobile application developed for the Google Android mobile platform which uses the accelerometer on the device to control a mouse pointer on a computer on the same network. Supported devices include any cellular device running Android 2.1 Eclair or higher. The application requires a WiFi network or USB Networking in order to function. The android application is a client which sends accelerometer data to a server application running on a computer, thus controlling the mouse via the tilting of the device. By tilting the phone up and down, the mouse on the screen will also translate up and down. Tilting the device side to side will also result in the mouse on the computer translating left or right. Scrolling can be achieved by putting two fingers on the white space and tilting the device up or down. Middle, left, and right buttons are utilized via touching the corresponding button on the screen. Multitouch is enabled, so more than one button can be pressed at any given time.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

1 ★hate it
5 ★good
1 ★Server not opening
5 ★If there's 6th star, I'd give it to you! Great application, I had problem with my screen turning off while I use it. It also needs more features like accelerometer calibration and axles sensitivities . Great work bro. can't wait to see the new updates!
5 ★everything is great~! especially for apps that is still in beta stage. Hopefully it will be even better when it is out of beta~. It is fun to use so try it out~!
5 ★Everyone get this app. You won't regret it. Its amazing
1 ★I installed the app on my phone with no problem, but the server download had no executable files. I'm left with a pretty picture of a mouse on my phone that doesn't do anything
4 ★The application works very well but there are two main issues: First, some applications steal the focus and give priority to the PC mouse. The phone movements are not recognised so you can't use it in full screen applications, like games, as an ordinary mouse controller. Second, it would ideal to be able to use the mouse' other sensors like the gyro and the compass for absolute mode positioning. This way, you would be able to put the phone in your pocket and move around the house, converting your phone into a Hydra like controller - when you move to the left, the virtual player moves to the left. Or when you gesture your mouse in the air, the virtual player rotates. Basically, an alternative to tilting by moving the mouse physically.
2 ★This app looks like it would work great, but my mouse just jitters back-and-forth as I try to move it. I looked at the raw accelerometer data tab of the PC server, and it appears this is because the accelerometers are all reading 0G inbetween each reading. IE, if I were to tilt my phone 45 degrees to the X axis, then the polling data SHOULD look like [45,45,45,45,45,45] but instead it is reading [45,0,45,0,45,0,45,0 etc] which causes the mouse pointer to shake and jitter like crazy, making it completely unusable. I have a very strong wifi connection and I am not running any other apps on my PC or my phone, so I'm not sure what is causing the problem. I am running MROM (based on CyanogenMod 7) on an MB860 (Atrix 4G).
4 ★I am using Android lollipop I do not have menu button what shall do I tried this app with my frnds mobile which works awesome
1 ★The app does not work at all on Samsung galaxy s3. Keeps going max left when the device is perfectly Still. Worse app out there.
1 ★Its much easier to just use use the laptops track pad or even arrow keys to move the pointer than tilting the phone to me move around the pointer
