But did you know that you can still control your Android phone even when the screen is broken? Follow the following article!

Use the mouse to control the Android phone screen

The phone screen is broken and you feel your life is ending, right? Keep calm. We will not use the screen to control mobile phones anymore. Instead, we will use the mouse - a normal PC mouse.

To do this, we must first buy a USB OTG adapter. This adapter allows you to make a micro USB or USB C connection, with a cable with one end connected to the phone and a regular USB connector. In fact, this cable may already be available, included with the smartphone when you buy it. However, if your phone does not have an included cable, you can easily find one.

Once you have everything ready, simply plug one end of the cable into your mobile phone and the other end into the mouse (of course, the USB head must be compatible with the mouse and be assured of up to 99% of the USB cable's head) will fit your mouse). When finished, the mobile phone will display the cursor on the screen, like a pointer on a PC.

Left click, you can press and select. Right click, you can go back. And the mouse wheel will help you scroll the screen.

What if the Android screen is completely broken?

Of course, the above method only works if your screen is not completely broken. If the screen is completely broken, you are experiencing an extremely serious problem, because you will not be able to see the cursor on the screen. And in that case, there's no other way but to bring the phone to fix it.
