Global Input App Browser Extension

A powerful browser extension that transforms your mobile device into a secure controller for web applications. Available for Chrome and Firefox, this TypeScript-based React application leverages the [global-input-react] module to enable seamless mobile-to-desktop interactions.

Overview

The extension creates a secure bridge between your mobile device and web browser, enabling you to interact with web pages directly from your mobile device. It provides secure data transfer capabilities while maintaining end-to-end encryption, making it ideal for tasks such as automated sign-in and authentication, secure form completion, mobile-based data storage and encryption, and custom element interaction and control.

Compatibility

The extension works seamlessly with popular platforms and services including development and tools platforms like GitHub, GitLab, npm, Digital Ocean, JSFiddle, JS Bin, Heroku, and MuleSoft; productivity tools such as Dropbox, Evernote, Lucidchart, ProtonMail, and CamScanner; social and business platforms including LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Microsoft, Google, and Apple; and e-commerce services like Amazon, AWS, Adobe, Atlassian, Tesco, Papa John's, WisePay, and 123-reg.
