Fixing mobile devices in minutes and maintaining them through time-saving remote access has positive effects on businesses on all levels.

Remotely control any Samsung mobile device
ISL Light lets you easily connect to any Android device and remotely control any Samsung device running on Android 4.2.2 or newer, as well as control rooted Android devices if access to ISL Light is granted to the device’s super-user when prompted. Tech support centres can thus easily provide wicked-fast remote support for just about any Android device.

How to access a remote Android device
The ISL Light Remote Desktop app is free and available on Google Play. To be able to receive tech support, the mobile user downloads the ISL Light app from Google Play and opens it. Then he/she types in a session code provided by the supporter to immediately connect to a remote control session. When the mobile user accepts a remote desktop sharing request, the supporter gains full control of the mobile device and can start troubleshooting it immediately. Faster results – happier clients.

Support Android devices through easy remote screenshots
Additionally to having full remote control over Samsung mobile devices, ISL Light allows a view-only mode when connected to other Android devices facilitating relatively fast remote support through the easy-to-use remote screenshots.

As it holds true for most support situations, it’s usually enough just to get a screenshot of what’s happening on the mobile device in order to resolve the issue and thus avoid possibly frustrating phone conversations. Android users connected through ISL Light can thus easily send a screenshot over to their operator by making a normal screenshot of the problem (Volume Down + Power Off on most devices). The screenshot then automatically appears on the supporter’s computer.

The other way around – use your Android device to control a remote computer
The app continues to provide seamless remote access from Android mobile devices to remote computers. Mobile users can easily connect to any remote computer (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux) and either efficiently troubleshoot technical problems, or remotely access one or more unattended computers to monitor them, install updates, perform a periodical check-up and other maintenance tasks.
