What does Aiseesoft Phone Mirror do?

Aiseesoft Phone Mirror casts the live screen of an iPhone, iPad, or Android device to a Windows PC in real time without quality loss. On the computer you can record the mirrored session, take screenshots, and draw or type on the displayed screen with its whiteboard tools. iOS devices connect through the built-in Screen Mirroring (AirPlay) on the same Wi-Fi network, while Android phones connect over Wi-Fi or a USB cable. It is a viewing, recording, and presentation tool rather than a backup or transfer utility, so it does not copy contacts, messages, or media into separate files.

Can you control an iPhone from the PC, or only Android?

PC control works for Android phones only; an iPhone or iPad can be mirrored and recorded but not operated from the computer. The Android control feature lets you tap apps, play mobile games, and move through screens with the mouse and keyboard, which is useful for demoing an app or streaming gameplay. This limit exists because iOS mirroring runs through Apple's one-way AirPlay protocol, which streams the display but does not accept remote input. If your goal is to operate an iPhone hands-free from a desktop, this tool will not do it.

How do you connect an iPhone or Android phone to Aiseesoft Phone Mirror?

For an iPhone or iPad, put the device on the same Wi-Fi network as the PC, open Screen Mirroring in Control Center, and select Aiseesoft Phone Mirror. For Android, install the companion mirror app, then connect over Wi-Fi by scanning a QR code or entering a PIN, or plug in a USB cable when no Wi-Fi is available. The USB route is Android-only, so iPhone mirroring always depends on a shared wireless network. This matters in offices or classrooms with locked-down Wi-Fi, where an iPhone may fail to appear while an Android phone still connects by cable.

Can Aiseesoft Phone Mirror record the phone screen and take screenshots?

Yes. It records the mirrored phone screen and captures still screenshots directly on the computer while casting, so a separate screen recorder is not needed. The capture runs on the PC side, recording whatever is shown during the session, including games, app walkthroughs, and video calls. You can also use the whiteboard layer to draw or type notes over the live screen before saving a recording or screenshot. That makes it practical for building app tutorials or documenting a phone fault for a support ticket.

What should you check before choosing Aiseesoft Phone Mirror?

Confirm you are on Windows, because Aiseesoft Phone Mirror runs on Windows 11, 10, 8, and 7 and is not offered as a Mac application. Decide whether you need to control the phone or only view it, since PC control covers Android but not iPhone or iPad. Also note that it mirrors and records the screen instead of transferring files, so it will not migrate photos, contacts, or WhatsApp data between devices. If you need cross-device data transfer or iPhone control, a dedicated phone-transfer suite is the better fit.
