I'm sure there are many more practical uses, but it's great for automating mobile games.

How does that work - what do you do in the games from your computer for example? Just curious.

Not the original commenter but I would use AutoIt or some other automation software on the computer to click around the game window.

I started using Autopy [0] for writing scripts to automate games on Windows, and then discovered that scrcpy lets me do the same for Android. I've used it for solving picross puzzles and right now I'm working on a solver for the Zachtronics solitaire games.
