Editor's Overview

RemotePointer is a remote controller application developed by Georg Sieber, packaged as a single Android APK of version 3.2 weighing in at 4.99 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

Install Checklist

  1. Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
  2. File size is a light 4.99 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
  3. This build is signed by "Georg Sieber" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
  4. After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
  5. We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

About this app

With this app you can control your computer's keyboard and mouse (using a touchpad). Furthermore, you can project a digital laser pointer dot on your screen or projector, which is controlled by the movement of your Android device.

Advantages:
- control your computer from your couch
- when your screen output is being recorded on presentations, the laser pointer can also be recorded
- the digital laser pointer point is better visible in bright rooms
- you can simultaneously flip the slides back and forth on your Android device and control the mouse
- you can use the app as barcode/QR code scanner for your computer

Please download the free software for your PC (Linux, macOS and Windows) from: https://sieber.systems/s/rp

The goal of this project is to provide a complete self-hosted remote control application without dependencies to external servers and without tracking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is RemotePointer free to download?
Yes. The APK file linked from this page is free. The developer may offer in-app purchases once installed, but obtaining the installer itself costs nothing.

What Android version does RemotePointer require?
Android 4.1+ or newer. Installing on older devices may cause crashes or refuse to install.

Is RemotePointer safe to install?
We link to the exact APK published by Georg Sieber. We do not modify the file. Still, as with any sideloaded app, scan it with a reputable antivirus before opening it, and only grant permissions the app genuinely needs.

How do I update RemotePointer?
Install the newer version on top of the old one — Android will keep your data. If the signature differs, uninstall first (you may lose local progress).

Why is the app not installing?
Common causes: not enough storage, an older Android version than 4.1+, or a conflicting build already installed. Free up space, check your OS version, and uninstall any previous copy before retrying.
