Trackpad app that mirrors finger/screen position

Hello folks,
There are many trackpad apps, wondering if anyone has found one that will mirror the position of your finger on your iPhone on the computer screen? I.e. if your finger is in the upper left corner of the iPhone screen then the mouse cursor would be in the upper left corner of your computer screen etc. etc.
Has anyone found a trackpad app that will work this way rather than having to gradually move the mouse cursor around? TIA

Hello, that is an extremely interesting mouse but no it is not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about apps that turn an iPhone or iPad into a trackpad to use with your computer. I am wondering if any of these trackpad apps would work similar to a Wacom tablet sans pen. In other words the pointer on the computer screen would go to whatever position correlates to the position of your finger on the iPad or iPhone running the trackpad app. So instead of having to do multiple swipes to take the cursor across the screen you would simply point to the upper right corner of the trackpad app and your cursor would be in the upper right corner of your computer screen. This seems to be a very difficult concept to communicate. There are zillions of trackpad apps for iPhone and iPad, since I do not currently have the time to look through every single one of them for a features list and try them all out, I was hoping someone might have run across this and be able to point me at the correct app.
Thank you very much

  • Looking for an app that allows for screen switching/maximizing

    On my PC at work, I have an app that adds another button to the top menubar of all applications/windows. This button, when clicked, will move the window/application to the "other" monitor/display and can even maximize the window to fit the screen. is there an app like that for the Mac
    I kinda need this right away - in a bit of a bind.
    Thanks

    What do you use on the PC? would be useful when iTunes and others insist on always going to last monitor, even when it is no longer present.
    Ah... Windows key + Shift + arrow key on Windows.
    Buit right in.
    Most likely utility would be SwitchResX, but some features have been removed.
    Worth giving a try though.

  • Is anyone aware of an iPad App that uses the screen as a flash for photography?

    While pictures taken outdoors with good lighting are acceptable, less can be said for those taken indoors under artificial light. Does anyone know of an app I can use to augment the room light with that from my screen?

    IMO, unless the room was nearly dark, I can't imagine the iPad would, even at full brightness, make any significant difference in this application.

  • What is the name of the app that is there in the iPad overview. (rio de janeiro).

    Click on the above link, (iPad overview), there is a picture of an app with Rio De Janeiro written, please tell me the name of the app, I tried searching but it didn't help. Thanks.

    It's Delta Air's own app.  It does look very nice in the screenshots.

    I like that screen layout.  It would be nice to have a map app that used a screen layout with that sort of information on it.

  • How do I fix Apps that failed to download, just says "waiting"

    I have three apps that are on screen with a grey icon and a download progress indicator. They all say "waiting" and have been like this or 2 days. How can I fix them?
    Any help appreciated, I'm new to iOS and I'm stumbling a bit.
    Thanks.

    Try a couple things.......first, reboot your iPad.  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME tiem for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.
    Sometimes, the App Store on iPad can get confused.  Try downloading a free app (you can delete it later if you don't want it) and then see if that get's your waiting apps to download.

  • Is there an app that shows data usage at the top of screen on a iPhone

    I'm looking for an app that will run a data usage readout at the top of my iPhone 5 running in real time in the background
    Does anyone know of an app that does that?

    I have 6 bluetooth devices paired with my iphone.  The speakers (same brand for home and office) are in position 1 and 2.  (office is number 2)
    When I come into my office in the morning, the power to the speakers is already on.  I have to go to settings/bluetooth and select the speakers in my office in order to connect.  It does not connect automatically.  When I leave my office to go elsewhere in the building that's out of range, if I take my iPhone, I have to reconnect when I get back to my office.  I suppose I could turn the speakers off, then back on again, but that's just one more step I shouldn't have to take.  Interesting enough, when I enter my family room with my speakers at home (position 1) the speakers connect automatically.
    What I'm looking for is an app that lets me select specific bluetooth devices and places an icon on my screen.  Then all I'd need to do is press that icon and automatically be connected to the bluetooth device I want.
    BTW, I have a bluetooth hands free device in my car. (position 3 on the list)  When I get in, I always have to do the same thing to connect to it.

  • I have a new Mazda CX 7 my song list will not come up on screen in car my wife blackberry the song list comes up is there an app that I need for my iPhone 4 to do the same

    I have a new Mazda CX 7 my wife blackberry sync up nice with blue tooth. We can use voice dial phone list shows on car dash screen also her whole playlist and song titles Ect... All show up on dash screen my iPhone 4 I can use it hands free but no info comes up on the car screen at all. The mazda sales person who claims to be an Apple guru said apple does not support this it has something to do with the os he said he hopes that apple will support this in future os. Is there an app that can do this now ? Anyone thank you for your help

    Demo,
    I was using the New iPad (iPad 3??) to access my FL Comcast email account for the 1st time. on a new internet site, my Canadian Cousin's site in her home in Quebec.  I had never used this iPad on my Comcast account.
    Whenever I try to access my email account from a different internet account than my own, Comcast always asks me for my user name and password.  They also normally ask me to answer a security question that I have given them beforhand to prove who I am.
    Thia time they did not do that.  They have started a more secure check system that requires you to read numbers and letters from a box that is moving around and retype those items into another box before hitting enter.  Machines cannot read those letters.  The iPads, not having "Flash" installed, also can not see those letters/numbers.
    If you can not see the letters/numbers you can not type them into the second block therefore you can not verify that you are who you claim to be.
    After all that, the also show a screen that asks if this is your personal computer or one from a friend or library or company etc, and if you want them to remember this device as yours from now on....
    I just left the Apple Store here and they said that the reason I can not see the "Floating Figures" is because the iPads cannot show anything that is made using "Flash" stuff because that system is not the latest updated secure system....
    Thank for the reply.

  • My screen continually freezes up.  I've tried closing all apps that are openfreezby double clicking on the home button and closing them. I have held down on the home button and start button simultaneously and it still freezes. Can someone out the help me?

    MY screen continually freezes up. I've tried closing all apps that are open and have held down the home button and start button simultaneously but neither helped. Can someone out there help me?

    Well the next couple of things to try would be to reset all settings, and if that doesn't help, it's probably time to restore the iOS software.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. That will take all settings on the iPad back to factory defaults. It will not delete anything and you will not lose any data, but you will have to enter all settings again ...WiFi passwords, enable Siri, select your wallpaper, adjust brightness, turn on location services and set privacy settings, etc, etc.
    You can read about restoring the software here.
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software - Support - Apple
    Should you decide to restore the iOS, it is extremely important that you back up first so that you can restore from the backup and then sync with iTunes afterward in order to restore all content back to the iPad. It is all covered in the kb article.
    If you do not sync with iTunes, then I assume that you backup with iCloud. In that case you can erase the device in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. Once again, backing up with I loud is I,operative before you do this so that you can restore from the iCloud backup after you erase the iPad and start over again with activation.
    You should read this first before you restore from either backup.

    This is a must read before you erase the iPad should you decide to go that route.

  • Is there a way to view/delete apps that won't fit on the 11 screens?

    I have more apps than fit on the 11 available screens - is there a way to view/delete apps that aren't on the 11 screens? I know I can launch them from the search facility, but that doesn't give me a comprehensive list or the ability to remove?

    You can only remove them in iTunes on the computer.

  • HT201272 I just bought a new iPad. When I tap on Purchase in the App store I see all my previously purchased apps each with a little box that says open. There is no download cloud. How do I get these apps onto my home screen?

    I just bought a new iPad and the apps I had previously purchased are in the app store under Purchased. They appear with a little box that says "Open". There is no download cloud so I can't click on them to download the apps to my home screen. Is there a way to move these apps to my home screen?

    If they have 'open' next to them then that implies that they are already on your iPad - if you tap on the 'open' button does that open the app ? If it does then they are on your iPad. You've checked all your homescreens and tried a soft-reset to see if they show after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Is there an app that shows on your locked screen what time the auto-lock was activated...so you know if anyone has looked at your phone?

    Id like an app that shows what time your iphone was locked, so you know if anyone has looked at your phone while you've left it, say on a desk at work?

    If your location on the map is off press the MENU button (lower left corner of your phone).  Then when the next screen appears Touch "my location" and it will move the your blue colored location ICON to your current location.
    Also, you can touch the tower ICON to see the tower's SSID, SID, and Received signal strength.  WIKI has good definitions for these acronyms.  If you go to CELLS (top of screen) you can also see the RSSI and the overview shows the signal strength in %.

  • When i go to the app store to update the one app that needs to be updated, the screen is blank.  It used to list all the apps that need updating and have a button called update all.  Now nothing.  Just a blank screen.

    There's been a problem with this all day.  Seems to be a server problem  -  wait a day and try again, or use itunes on the computer to update, that works.
