Method 1: Using Unified Remote
Unified Remote is the product of the two Swedish students’ hobby project, Jakob Berglund and Philip Bergqvist, which later developed into a successful start-up venture. The app was first launched as a free Android app in 2010, offering simple features and support for 13 remote controls for Windows apps. An improved edition was released a year later, as well as a paying (premium) upgrade with more features and remote controls. The latest version, which included an overhauled user interface and introduced support for iOS, Mac, and Linux, was launched in 2014.
Unified Remote is for remote control of programs from your smartphone on a user’s device. This application facilitates the task of monitoring different programs from one application and includes support for 70 + apps such as Google Chrome, Spotify, YouTube, VLC Media Player, and Windows Media Player. Unified Remote provides direct integration with Google Chrome which helps you to control and perform every function on Google Chrome.

The server also provides an open API which enables developers to build their own customized remote controls.
You just need to download the app on your operating system from their official website and on your smartphones through Play Store or App store. Then, you just have to connect your system and smartphone to the same server. And in a click, you are able to access all the controls from your device.
