You can then drag your finger around the screen on a small mouse icon. Beside the icon is a mouse pointer that you control. Always visible mouse includes face recognition and there is an option to activate the left click button with a smile. We found this doesn't work too well, but simply clicking is fine. Various advanced options are available in this app, from mouse size and sensitivity to selecting colors. Overall, this is a useful way to bring a mouse pointer to Android.
Bluetooth, wireless, and USB cabled mouses can also be hooked up to Android via a dock. This is a device that connects your phone or tablet to a monitor, hard disk drive, even Ethernet cable. Traditionally used for laptops, more recently docks have extended compatibility to make them suitable for phones and tablets.
Simply plug your mouse into the dock, hook the dock to your phone or tablet, and add any other hardware you wish to use.
Moments later, you'll be enjoying that desktop feel on Android, complete with mouse control. Unlike connecting, say, a game controller to Android is that hooking up a mouse requires little-to-no configuration.
It is more or less a plug and play experience, which is of huge benefit. For example, if you want to remotely connect to your home PC using an Android phone, connecting a mouse makes control more precise. Using Android TV? If your mouse supports Bluetooth, this is much easier than using OTG, and much more cost effective.
Additionally, this makes shopping for a new mouse much easier when thinking of Android. Turn on your Bluetooth mouse, and make sure your Android device accepts it. You can confirm this in your Bluetooth menu. An OTG cable is an investment that will never go sour, so I can always recommend purchasing one if your Android device supports it. There are two ways to connect your mouse to an Android device, and both of them are easy enough to only take a minute out of your day with the correct setup.
