So, there is an important text that you need to respond to, or there is an incoming call that you need to answer. The problem is that you forgot your phone at home. Luckily, there is a utility software that you can use to access your phone remotely. AirDroid is an app that allows you to access and manage your phone or tablet from any computer for free. With this, you can receive and reply to messages, as well as initiate and answer calls without holding your phone. The app also offers other features that can help you become productive, regardless if you have your phone or not. 

Access your phone through the web

At its heart, AirDroid functions like a mobile device manager, but it allows you to access your data regardless of the location of your device. To use the app, simply download it on your phone and make an account. You can then access your phone by logging into the AirDroid website. The web interface offers an organized computer workspace, displaying all the icons on your phone. It even has four workspaces, in case you run out of space. 

Aside from allowing you to access your messages and calls, AirDroid also lets you receive and reply to messages sent in your instant messaging apps, such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and Facebook Messenger. Moreover, it supports transferring all kinds of files on different platforms. With this, you can send photos, videos, music, and any files from your phone to the computer you are using. You can even backup photos and videos from phone to computer. 

All in all, AirDroid is a helpful app. It has everything you need to professionally manage your data from your phone remotely. It can even help locate your phone if you lost it. However, there are instances where the connection between your phone and the computer drops. Moreover, transferring files takes ages regardless of the size.
