Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does
What it does
MagicDesk combines native Android app windows, Linux graphical applications, terminals and independent workspaces on multiple displays. Use the phone, an external monitor, or a computer connected through scrcpy. Files, clipboard, application launchers and automation connect the same tools whether or not a managed Desktop is running.
