Show Notes

- On your Android phone go into the Android Market. LogMeIn Ignition is available for $29.99.

- You must create an account at the LogMeIn website.

- Once you've created your free account download the PC version of the software and install it to your computer.

- Once installed it resides in your system tray so you're always ready to go.

- Once it's installed on both your Android and your computer then you can add your PC.

- Connect to the PC and you can do just about everything. You can use the keyboard and mouse, send control key sequences, zoom in and out, and more.

- You can tap the menu button to bring up the settings which you can configure to your liking.

- Note: The screen normally displays just like your normal PC screen, which it did not do in the tutorial because of the recording software.
