What you'll needįirst, make sure both your Raspberry Pi and the other computer you’re going to use are connected to the same network. In this walkthrough, we’ll be using VNC Viewer and VNC Server to connect on the fly to a Raspberry Pi from a Windows PC and an Android smartphone. Either on your home network, or via the internet. Perhaps you’re using another computer, your Raspberry Pi is out of reach, behind your TV or a nest of cables or you’re on the road and have left your Raspberry Pi at home.įortunately, with VNC (Virtual Network Computing) – free for non-commercial use and built into the Raspbian operating system – you can access Raspberry Pi remotely from any other computer, tablet, or smartphone. There will be times when you can’t - or don’t want to - switch to your Raspberry Pi.
