What Clicker does

Works with a laptop, tablet or smart TV over Bluetooth. Nothing to install on the other side.

Touchpad

One finger moves, tap clicks, two-finger tap right-clicks, two-finger drag scrolls. Left and Right buttons, drag lock and a speed setting.

Keyboard

Type with the phone keyboard. Enter, Backspace, arrows, Esc, Tab, Home / End, Page Up / Down, and Ctrl, Alt, Shift and Win toggles.

Presenter

Big Next and Previous buttons, Start (F5), End (Esc), Black screen (B), the phone volume keys as Next / Previous, and an optional timer.

Media remote

Play / pause, next, previous, volume up and down, and mute.

Reconnects by itself

Remembers the last host and reconnects automatically. A notification keeps the link alive while connected.

Clear about support

Not every phone can act as a Bluetooth keyboard. Clicker tells you clearly when yours cannot.

How to use it

Pair once, then it reconnects on its own.

  1. Allow BluetoothOpen Clicker and allow the Nearby devices permission. Turn Bluetooth on if it is off.
  2. Pair with your computerIn the Hosts tab, pick a paired computer, tablet or TV, or make the phone discoverable and pair from the other device as you would a keyboard.
  3. Pick a tabUse Touchpad, Keyboard, Presenter or Media. The phone now behaves like that device.
  4. Present or typeFlip slides with the big buttons or the volume keys, move the pointer, or type on the phone keyboard.

Permissions and privacy

No account, no analytics. What you type and tap goes straight to the device you connected over Bluetooth. The only call to the internet is the update check in Settings.

What it asks for, and why

  • Bluetooth / Nearby devices: to list paired devices, connect and become discoverable.
  • Notifications and foreground service: a notification keeps the connection alive while connected, with a Disconnect button.
  • Internet: the update check only.

Honest limits

  • Needs a phone that supports Bluetooth HID device mode. Some models do not.
  • Text is typed as a US-layout keyboard, so the other device should use a matching layout.
  • Bluetooth range and latency depend on your phone and the other device.
