If you ever wanted to be able to control an iPhone or an iPad tablet directly from a computer, well, you have had this option for years. Using a program developed by the creator Cydia and named Veency, anyone could display on their own computer a control module of their own iPhone, or their own iPad tablet, controlling using a simple mouse.
That system was not entirely suitable and had various operational problems, so now there is a simpler and better method of doing everything. The whole plugin is based on it Veency available in Cydia, but on the computer you will use an extension for Google Chrome which will allow you to control your iPhone or iPad tablet as you please.
Considering that everything is done using an extension for Google Chrome, the method can be used on any type of computer that has this browser installed. Whether it's Windows, OS X or another platform, as long as you're running Google Chrome and can install extensions, you'll be able to use the above system to control your iPhone or iPad tablet.
How to control an iPhone or an iPad tablet from the computer
At first you will have to do 8.1.2 iOS jailbreak or 8 iOS jailbreak for your terminals with the idea of installing Veency from Cydia. The system can also be used on older versions of iOS, but the condition is that you have jailbroken your terminal, otherwise everything will be in vain.
Good, you have jailbroken, now follow the steps below:
- Open the Cydia application, search Veency and install the package.
- Install the extension VNC Viewer for Google Chrome from this page.
- Open the Configurations, Settings application, go to the Wi-Fi menu and press the blue button to the right of the network you are connected to. The system does not work with data connections.
- Open Google Chrome on your computer, open the extension VNC Viewer and enter the IP address you see in the iPhone IP Address of the Wi-Fi menu opened in the previous step.
- Press the Connect button in VNC Viewer and you are ready to control your iPhone from your computer.
This system allows total control of the iPhone or iPad tablet, so you will be able to use any applications without problems. From sending messages, recording photos or playing various games, Veency and VNC Viewer allow you to do whatever you want on your own iDevices, so now you won't need to use their small screens for these tasks.
