Mobile Witch is a very powerful free application that allows users to remotely control their computers. The application works as remote control that will take over the operations of your PC. All it needs is a Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone and PC with Java capabilities. Most of the mobile phones today are now Bluetooth enabled with Java while most computes already have JRE (Java Runtime Environment) since they are available free online. Virtually no expenses should be expected when using this application except for Bluetooth dongle for PC if the PC does not have Bluetooth capabilities yet.

Installation and configuration is easy. The PC will become the “server” wherein it becomes the recipient of different commands while the mobile phone becomes the client. Once the PC and mobile phone is connected, the user can virtually control the PC right from the mobile phone.

Most of the remote control applications are only geared towards shutdown or file access. Mobile Witch takes it even further by allowing the user to access different applications and launching them right from the mobile phone. IE (Internet Explorer), Winamp and MS Office applications are only some of the applications that could be remotely controlled from the mobile phone.

But the best feature of the application is that it can convert your mobile phone into a mouse or a keyboard. Users should only place the application on PC to be always on top, activate the application as a mouse or keyboard and the mobile phone becomes your remote mouse or keyboard using the navigation buttons or numeric pad of the mobile phone.
