Ok thanks guys


So can you watch your droid to see what's going on, like if my brother/ friend borrows my PC I know what's up? And if so I can control it and screw with them if need be?

Also it says it can get up to 10 PC's so could it connect to my friends?

LOL exactly!

I read a post this week here at df where a guy said he was showing off this app to a friend and busted his son looking a porn, lol. I see the potential for lots of fun and shenanigans for PhoneMyPc. As a wise person once told me in regards to such a tool:

"use it for good, rather than evil"
Haha nice! I can definitely see that happening..

My brother plays WoW on my PC sometimes, so will my droid actually pick up that stuff too and whatnot?

As for the friends PC's, how do you connect to them? Do you need to install crap on there PC's (without them knowing of course lol) or does Droid play god ((or devil?!?)) and just connects to it just because it feels like it?

PhoneMyPC - well yall already know

iLighter - a lighter app. Mimicks a lighter. Like if u at a concert and ppl put their lighters up, now u can too and dont get burned fingers.

Flashlight - a flashlight app. The entire screen get white n bright.

Swype n Shape Writer - onscreen keyboards. You type by swiping your fingers across the keyboard. U can also use it like a regular keyboard.

PhoneMyPC, iLighter, Flashlight, Swype, Shape Writer tied for coolest app for me.

Isn't the Torch app the best for LED usage?
And why is Shape Writer tied with Swype? I was not a fan at all and was SO happy when I got swype again after it expired few months back. BUT it is the best "replacement" and it wasn't bad (to bad at least) but swype is so soothing and ree and not retarded sometimes like SW is lmao :)

I really dont know if its best for LED usage.

Swype is the best out-the-box IMO. And I had to go a lil slower with Shape Writer for it to work good. But once you add words to Shape's dictionary, it gets better. Believe me I prefer Swype, but if u cant get it, Shape Writer is a good alternative.

My Tracks - Its the best app for me sometimes. Uses maps and GPS to 'record' your walk, hike, bike, or drive. When you tell it to stop recording you can then see a line from point A to point B where you went, then a LOT of data such as elevation, speeds, time, and so on. Then better that that, you can then upload the data right to your Google Maps account to keep records if you don't want it on the phone. Great app for dorks who like hiking... hah
Agreed, I love this app

Mototorch is simple. Turns the LED's on or off, plus it can do morse code.

Nevermind, I know you have to download an application to your PC. And your friends PC if you want to control there fate (which is what I have to do ;] )

But answer my other question please

Your welcome ;]

I agree though! I just have the widget on one of my 7 home screen (Helix launcher) and instead of going into MotoTorch and dealing with opening of the app and crap, the widget is just a very handy button (like a switch) for fast usage!!
