Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that provide an improved remote device user interface for enabling accurate text input into a user device. For example, a user device (e.g., an HMD) may be enabled to receive touchscreen input via input controls displayed by a remote device (e.g., a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc.) using a display mode enhanced for pass-through viewing. For example, an enhanced display mode may enable a larger than normal display to enhance display mode attributes associated with input entry with respect to the user device. In some implementations display mode attributes may be enabled based on context such as distance, lens distortion, lighting, minimum character resolution, etc. Likewise, some implementations may augment input controls (on an HMD) such as 3 dimensional bubbles, auto-correct controls, auto-fill controls, spatialized audio controls, virtual touch/function bar controls, etc.
