First public pre-release of Stylink: use a supported Android stylus as a Windows drawing tablet through USB tethering.

What’s included

  • Android app: app-debug.apk
  • Windows companion: Stylink.exe

Setup

  1. Install app-debug.apk on your Android phone or tablet.
  2. Open Stylink.exe on your Windows PC.
  3. Connect the Android device with a USB data cable.
  4. Turn on USB tethering in Android settings.
  5. Open Stylink on both devices and select Connect phone on the PC.
  6. Enter the 8-character code shown on the phone the first time. Future connections pair automatically.

No USB debugging, ADB, driver installation, firewall commands, or command windows are required.

Features

  • Stylus position, pressure, tilt, hover, eraser, and pen-button support when reported by the Android device
  • Full-screen phone drawing pad
  • Optional selected PC screen-area preview and pen mapping
  • Preview quality and FPS controls
  • One-time pairing with device-specific keys

Notes

This is a pre-release built with AI-assisted coding and tested on a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. Other Android stylus devices may work, but have not yet been hardware-tested.

Stylink currently supports USB tethering only. Keep both apps open while drawing. The USB tether connection is not encrypted in transit, so use a direct USB connection.

Windows may show a SmartScreen warning because this community build is not code-signed.
