My phone's screen is completely broken, and I can't interact with it at all. I'm desperate to get all my data transferred to another device. The problem is, I can't take it to a repair shop since the only way to access my bank account is through that phone, and I can't make calls either. I tried using cloud services, but that didn't work for me. It's crucial that I find a way to retrieve my data because I might lose my job if I'm unable to answer calls. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You'll need to use an HDMI connection along with a mouse. A USB and HDMI splitter could be tricky to find, but if you can find an HDMI to USB cord and get a wireless keyboard and mouse set, you might be able to connect everything to a display and access your data that way.
One option is to connect a mouse to your phone using a USB OTG cable. This way, you can control your phone despite the broken screen. Most techs can help you with this, but if you're DIY-ing it, this could be a good solution.
Thanks for the suggestion! Just need to figure out how to pay for all that gear.
