There are loads of ways you can do so, but exactly what the best solution is depends on what you hope to achieve.

There are HTTP servers that can be installed on phones. Then you can access the web server running on your phone from a web browser on your computer. But if what you hope to achieve is a way of remote-controlling Snapchat, it won't help because each app on your phone runs in its own little jail cell.

Basically sending a message from your computer to your phone is easy. It just requires an app on your phone that's listening for messages. But what that app is able to do when it receives a message might be pretty limited.

  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
