Description
Valence turns your Android phone or tablet into a remote keyboard and mouse for any computer running a VNC server.Note: I rely on your feedback about bugs and issues you may encounter with Valence. Please drop me an email if you have any problems, and let me know which VNC server software you are using. Mentioning problems in reviews is not sufficient, since I can't respond or ask more questions about the problem.
The inspiration for Valence was a need to control a home theater PC from the couch, but it can be useful in any situation where a computer doesn't have a keyboard and mouse handy. Your computer must be reachable over the network from your Android device, and be running a VNC server.
Valence now supports right-clicking (by tapping with two fingers at the same time) and scrolling (by swiping two fingers up and down).
For more information about using Valence and configuring a VNC server on your computer, follow the website link below or view the online help (Menu->Help).

Great app After looking through many apps, this is the best one by far, as I only need a touchpad, not my screen. Also, it works on linux, which is great.

Stretch vs. Zoom On a honeycomb tablet you have the choice of displaying the app in Stretch or Zoom mode. In Stretch (default) mode the app looks high res but the mouse movement is fast & jerky. In Zoom mode the app looks low res but the mouse works much smoother but also slower. If you're using this on a tablet try both to see which feels better for you.

Excellent app!!! No need to dowload a server to the computer you are trying to control, unlike other apps

The best VNC based touchpad and keyboard Works great with Mac and Ubuntu, out of the box! No server install needed.

Excellent app Ignore the comment from a previous reviewer talking about resolution limit. I have tested the app with 1920x1080 resolution without a problem.
