About MirVNCServer
MirVNCServer enables remote control of your Ubuntu Touch device.
Start the VNC server on your device and then connect from any other device using the VNC client of your choice!

**Nexus 5 (hammerhead) users**: a small fix is required to allow keyboard/mouse interaction. Please see this post for a workaround:
* https://forums.ubports.com/post/48561

The most reliable way to switch between portrait and landscape:
* Stop the server
* Change the rotation (automatically or manually)
* Then restart the server
Alternatively, you can attempt to use the shortcut keys (shown in-app) from your VNC client but this may not work on all devices.

Doesn't work on Pinephone, just get an error message "File or directory not found" which is a shame as it looked like a useful app.
