What is scrcpy?
This application mirrors Android devices (video and audio) connected on USB and WiFi, and allows to control the device with the keyboard and the mouse of the computer. It does not require any root access. It works on Linux, Windows and macOS.
IT FOCUSES ON:
- lightness: native, displays only the device screen
- performance: 30~120fps, depending on the device
- quality: 1920×1080 or above
- low latency: 35~70ms
- low startup time: ~1 second to display the first image
- non-intrusiveness: nothing is left installed on the device
- user benefits: no account, no ads, no internet required
- freedom: free and open source software
ITS FEATURES INCLUDE:
- audio forwarding (Android >= 11)
- recording
- mirroring with Android device screen off
- copy-paste in both directions
- configurable quality
- Android device as a webcam (V4L2) (Linux-only)
- physical keyboard/mouse simulation (HID)
- OTG mode
HOW DOES IT WORK?
- The application executes a server on the device. The client and the server communicate via a socket over an adb tunnel.
- The server streams a video stream of the device screen. The client decodes the video frames and displays them. For Android 11+, the server also streams an audio stream of the device audio output, that the client decodes and plays.
- The client captures input (keyboard and mouse) events, sends them to the server, which injects them to the device.

Comments and Reviews
really extraordinary no ads works without internet need to plug in usb cable. no money for full screen (vysor) The image is very good (vysor slow) transitions too fast (vysor pause) Free (vysor paid) Sometimes I say what I wish I wish I had done before.
this program has been an event definitely try.
thank you very much
mainly iphone user but this app alone is what makes me keeping an android somewhere in my desk. easy to use, performant, lightweight and overall just damn cool, plain and simple.
screen mirroring without latency
Simple, gets the job done.
Best free alternative to Visor, but little bit freezing on my old tablet.
I've read the "How does it Work?" I have no clue what they are talking about. But it does? Had some guidance from youtube vids for installation on Mac (currenly Monterey). Works a dream, Thanks to developers.
muito bom, rápido e simples e eficaz
