How to Access a PC with the Samsung Infuse 4G

By Gareth Jale


The first thing we need to point out is that when you go download a remote access program on your phone, the same program needs to then be installed on your computer. If you have a computer that runs Microsoft Windows, then you will need a Windows version of the app. In contrast, if you have a computer that runs Mac OS or a distribution of Linux, then you will want the corresponding version of the app. This is because the app will not work correctly with your computer if you do not have the correct version set up on your computer. Compatibility is the key to remote access, whether with the Samsung Infuse 4G or with any other smart phone.

Beyond making sure you have a compatible version of your app on your computer, you will also want to decide which features are essential for your remote access app. An app like Distance Computing will make it easy to do some of the basic things, such as checking for individual files on your computer or downloading or uploading files from your computer to your smart phone.

If you are looking to do things like remotely turn of your computer then you will need for those features to come with your application. An app like Power Switch is a good one to keep on hand if you want to have that kind of power on and off control over your PC or laptop.

It is important to note that there are going to be free and paid versions of whichever app you select to perform your remote computing tasks. You will notice that paid apps will tend to have more features than a free version. However, the paid version might not always be worth it for you and you might choose to just pick up the free one. Feel free to experiment with both to figure out which ones get things done for you with the least amount of hassle.

As you see there are many different applications that can help you remotely access your computer with a mobile device. These apps make it easy to work with your computer even when you are not directly in front of it. Aside from these apps, however, you should also look into some of the many accessories on the market. For example, a screen protector is a great way to keep your smart phone's screen looking brand new. Similarly, a case can help you keep your phone's body from suffering scrapes and scratches.
