(I should have looked up the Onyx Boox. I guess it does have an Android OS.) So -- is a remote desktop client already there, or did you add that?

And how is the remote desktop connection done -- wifi?

[ I would be going to a mac, but I'm having lots of eye problems, so it's worth a try. ]
Yes, Onyx Boox M96 and later products including Max have Android 4.0.4 as their OS with Google Play. So you can easily install any remote desktop client from Google Play.

And most of remote desktop using wifi, some can also using USB (adb) connection. On mac, VNC may a good choise, it use wifi. chrome remote desktop and teamviewer can be tried, but their connection via Internet and introduced some delay.

Origin Android VNC Viewer will crashed when you open a menu. I have a modified Android VNC Viewer app for Onyx Boox here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Sw...pp-release.apk

PS: M96 is just 512MB RAM! it itn't enough for android 4.0.4 with Gapps. consider M96 plus or later.
