Phones Cloud turns remote Android control into a practical workflow: open a cloud device, stream the screen, tap, type, swipe, and continue work from another device when needed.

## Who it helps

- Users who need Android from iOS
- Support and operations teams
- QA teams that need quick device access

## Remote touch control

Tap, swipe, type, and operate apps through the streamed Android screen.


## No local Android required

Access an Android environment from a laptop, desktop browser, or iPhone.


## Session continuity

Return to the same cloud phone later instead of restarting the workflow on a local device.


## Workflow

1. Open the dashboard: Choose the remote Android device assigned to your account.
2. Start streaming: Launch the browser or iOS control session.
3. Operate the phone: Use touch, keyboard input, and supported gestures for everyday Android tasks.
4. Switch screens: Move between web and iOS access when your work context changes.
