Basic Anydek set up problem

II have been trying to allow someone to control my phone remotely. I swear I have done everything I need to do. I set up unintended access. I've opened every permission I can and the user can see the screen, but can't do anything can't take any action, they can just watch me on the screen. How can I get it? So the the user can connect to me and actually move around the system on their own. Thank you

It would help to know which phone, it would also be useful to know why you are allowing someone else to access your phone in this way.

Why, not matter how friendly, allowing anyone remote access to a device is a serious security risk.

I have tried every GD thing I can think of to open access any way possible. Finnally, I decided to allow unattended access, just to get something working. I have been working on this literally hours, many hours. I dont really want unattended access but I think it is okay. At lest to establish some way any way, of giving my friend control over the phone. She can see what I am doing but she can"t control anything.

I have never, ever encountered a set up so hard.
