RemoteControl, Stream Music, Movies from PC, Mac, Linux to Android

We’ve talked about apps that let you stream music from PC, Mac OS X to Android and vice-versa. How about an app that can:

  • Stream Music from PC, OS X to Android
  • Stream Movies from PC, OS X to Android.
  • Remote control all media (Music, Movies) on Windows, OS X, Linux from Android phone/tablet.

Well there’s one app that does all that and more, and it is called Gmote.

Gmote is a free / donate app that is a media center hub for all your Entertainment needs. You can control your computer’s media player from your phone. Stream music to your phone, the app turns your phone into a remote control for your computer, allowing you to start and control movies and music at a distance.

You can sit back in your couch and do all that, without having to touch mouse or keyboard, wirelessly.

We’ve been using Gmote for a while now, and are pretty happy with the performance. App is compatible with 99.99% of android phones, tablets out there since it supports all versions since android 1.5. You can go through your desktop’s music library, play it on your Android device, stop/start/previous/skip songs and videos playing on your desktop, control Microsoft PowerPoint, launch websites and, finally, even use your device’s touchscreen as a touchpad or a keyboard!

The app has 4.5 star rating on Google Play, and is truly worthy of it.

From Google Play (aka Android Market):

New in version 2:

  • Stream music from your computer to phone!

  • Acts as a WiFi touchpad/keyboard (improved!)
