The Remote Control option is missing for a mobile device

If there is not an option to choose Remote Control in the Device Actions menu, it is usually because the device is missing a device plugin.

To solve this, you can choose the Install Device Plugin option to install the plugin. After the plugin is installed you will be able to find the Remote Control option and remote control the device as normally.
