Why use TC Games for phone mirroring to PC<\/h1>\n
A larger display gives you more room to see the game interface, while mapped keys let you operate touch controls from your desk. TC Games combines screen mirroring for Android phone gaming with ready-made keymaps and customizable controls. Your existing game installation stays on the phone; the PC becomes your display and control workspace.<\/p>\n
What you need before you start<\/h1>\n\n- A Windows PC with TC Games installed.<\/li>\n
- A supported Android phone with the game installed.<\/li>\n
- A USB cable that supports data transfer.<\/li>\n
- A keyboard and mouse for PC control.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Check the TC Games website<\/a> for current compatibility and edition details. This walkthrough uses USB for the initial connection.<\/p>\nHow to mirror your Android phone to PC with TC Games<\/h1>\n1 Install and open TC Games<\/h2>\n
Download TC Games from the official website, install it on your Windows computer, and open it. Follow the sign-in prompts if shown.<\/p>\n
2 Enable USB debugging on your phone<\/h2>\n
Open your phone’s Settings and find Build number<\/strong>, usually under About phone or Software information. Tap it seven times<\/strong> to enable Developer options. Then open Developer options and turn on USB debugging<\/strong>. Menu names and locations vary by phone brand.<\/p>\n3 Connect the phone to your PC<\/h2>\n
Connect the USB data cable and open Connection<\/strong> in TC Games. Choose Projection & Control<\/strong> for keyboard and mouse operation. Approve USB debugging and app-installation prompts on the phone when requested, then click Connect<\/strong> when TC Games detects your device.<\/p>\n![\"TC](\"https:\/\/www.sigma-rt.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/tc-games-usb-connection-screen-with-projection-and.png\")

4 Open the game on the mirrored phone<\/h2>\n
Once connected, confirm that your Android screen appears in TC Games. Open the game and check that the picture updates normally. The game is still running on your phone, so keep the phone connected during play.<\/p>\n
5 Apply and check your key mapping<\/h2>\n
Open the Key Mapping Center<\/strong> and look for a suitable layout for your game and phone resolution. Apply the downloaded keymap, then use Key Setting<\/strong> to align the mapped keys with the game’s on-screen buttons. Adjust the layout and save your changes.<\/p>\n![\"TC](\"https:\/\/www.sigma-rt.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/tc-games-key-mapping-center-with-resolution-filter.png\")

Figure 3. Choose an appropriate keymap and check its alignment with your game’s controls.<\/p>\n
Test movement, camera control, and a few actions in a practice area before starting a match. If the controls feel unfamiliar, adjust the key assignments or mouse sensitivity. The TC Games Key Mapping guide<\/a> explains the available setup options.<\/p>\nWhat keyboard and mouse control adds to mirroring<\/h1>\n\n- Movement keys.<\/strong> Assign directional controls to familiar keyboard keys.<\/li>\n
- Mouse control.<\/strong> Configure camera or aiming controls for the game’s layout.<\/li>\n
- Accessible actions.<\/strong> Place frequently used skills and items on keys you can reach comfortably.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
A useful keymap matches the buttons currently shown in your game. If you change the game’s control layout, check the mapping again. Available controls depend on the TC Games edition and the configuration you choose.<\/p>\n
USB and Wi-Fi phone mirroring options<\/h1>\n
USB is a practical starting point for a desk setup because it avoids Wi-Fi interference. Wireless phone mirroring gives you more freedom to position the phone, but depends on the quality of your local network.<\/p>\n
For the Wi-Fi method in the official connection guide<\/a>, complete one USB connection first. Put the PC and phone on the same local network. Then open TC Games on the phone, tap SCAN<\/strong>, and scan the QR code displayed on the PC.<\/p>\nTC Games also provides an HDMI workflow for compatible phones and additional display hardware. Check the hardware requirements in the connection guide before choosing that option.<\/p>\n
Keep the picture and controls responsive<\/h1>\n
Choose image settings that suit your phone, computer, and connection. Increasing resolution or frame rate can increase the workload. If movement looks uneven, lower the image settings and compare the result before changing anything else.<\/p>\n
The game’s frame-rate setting, the phone’s performance, and the PC monitor also affect what you see. Selecting a higher mirroring frame rate cannot make the game produce more frames than it supports. Keep the phone ventilated during longer sessions.<\/p>\n
