Bluetooth Keyboard - BlueKeys

Turn your Android phone into a Bluetooth keyboard, mouse and trackpad for your computer or TV. BlueKeys connects the way a real keyboard does, so there is nothing to install on the other device. Pair once from its Bluetooth settings and start typing, pointing and controlling.

Everything lives on one calm, clean home screen, with big buttons and no clutter.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Trackpad and mouse

Move the cursor with one finger, scroll with two, tap to click and use left, middle and right buttons. Adjust tracking speed, lock a drag, or switch to TV mode for remote style navigation.

Keyboard

Type on a full on-screen keyboard or write a message and send it in one go. Paste from your clipboard, dictate with voice input where your phone supports it, and use Esc, Tab, Ctrl, Alt, Super and arrow keys when you need them. A landscape full screen layout is included for longer typing.

TV remote

Use the D-pad, OK, Back, Home, Menu, volume, channel, Info, Guide and colour keys, plus a voice button, on Bluetooth capable TVs and streaming devices.

Media remote

Play, pause, skip, change volume and mute. Player controls cover full screen, subtitles, seek and speed for video apps and sites.

Presenter

Move through slides from across the room, with a laser pointer shortcut and a slide counter, ideal for classes and meetings.

Shortcuts

Copy, paste, cut, undo, redo, select all, find, save, switch app, show desktop and more. Shortcuts follow your system, so you get Ctrl on Windows and Linux and Cmd on Mac.

Numpad

A full number pad with Enter and operators, great for spreadsheets and calculators.

Gamepad

Two sticks, D-pad, bumpers, triggers and face buttons in landscape. Use PC mode for keyboard and mouse style games, or gamepad mode for apps that accept a controller.

Scan to PC

Scan a QR code or barcode with your phone and have the result typed straight into your computer.

Quick keys

Keep your most used keys on the home screen for one tap access.

WORKS WITH

Windows PCs and laptops, Mac, Linux, smart TVs and other devices that accept a Bluetooth keyboard or mouse. Support depends on the receiving device and its operating system.

GETTING STARTED

1. Turn on Bluetooth on your phone and the other device.

2. Open BlueKeys and allow the Bluetooth permission when asked.

3. Pick your computer or TV from the list, or pair BlueKeys from that device's Bluetooth settings.

4. Choose a remote and start controlling.

A short in-app guide walks you through setup and shows fixes if a device does not connect.

GOOD TO KNOW

- Needs Android 9 or newer and a phone that supports the Bluetooth HID device profile. A few phones do not.

- Only one app can act as a Bluetooth keyboard at a time, so close other keyboard apps first.

- Bluetooth permission is used only to find, pair and talk to your devices. BlueKeys does not read your files, photos, contacts or messages.

- The app is supported by ads. A one-time BlueKeys Pro purchase removes all ads, with no subscription.

- BlueKeys is an independent app and is not affiliated with any computer, phone or TV maker.
