Automatic launch connection for the Android agent #2729

Hello, Is it possible to launch and connect the Android agent automatically at boot time? To be able to control without user action? (Host Mode) Sincerely

Ylianst commented 3 years ago

Not currently possible, but could add it if requested.

I ask :) I control tablets where I block all user functions (Kiosk Mode) and in case of a problem, I would like to be able to see what's on the screen. Even in experimental mode, I would like to have the function.

Best regards

Hi all, Yes it's a very interesting feature we use it (with teamviewer) in a very huge number of android phones and tablets

If it's technikly possibile (API or restriction):

Load a service then the agent run in background, with perpertual trying of reconnection to host server.
flag in the settings of the app, to bypass user interaction.
A way to generate an APK that have alredy inside the credentials for provisionning on the mesh server (QR code useless)
Use the agent on ANDROID TV.

Hey @Ylians, very very thanks for Mesh,is one of the most useful software I've ever used! For my use, i have bypassed now the installation on Android because this implementation is very necessary (i have 300+ android device to map, and the people still no happy to click every boot on the application). Have you some news about this? Thank you so much again for your work!!!
