QtScrcpy supports displaying and controlling Android devices via USB or over network. It does NOT require root privileges.
It supports three major platforms: GNU/Linux, Windows and macOS.
It focuses on:
You can write your script to map keyboard and mouse actions to touches and clicks of the mobile phone according to your needs. Here are the script writing rules.
Script for TikTok and some other games are provided by default. Once enabled, you can play the game with your keyboard and mouse. The default key mapping for PUBG Mobile is as follows:
Here is a video demonstration playing PUBG Mobile.
Instruction for adding new customized mapping files.

.You can control all your phones at the same time.
QtScrcpy is based on Genymobile's scrcpy project. Thanks a lot!
The difference between QtScrcpy and the original scrcpy is as follows:
key points | scrcpy | QtScrcpy |
---|---|---|
ui | sdl | qt |
video encode | ffmpeg | ffmpeg |
video render | sdl | opengl |
cross-platform | self implemented | provided by Qt |
language | C | C++ |
style | sync | async |
keymap | no custom keymap | support custom keymap |
build | meson+gradle | qmake or CMake |
If you are interested in it and want to learn how it works but do not know how to get started, you can choose to purchase my recorded video lessons. It details the development architecture and the development process of the entire software and helps you develop QtScrcpy from scratch.
