Remotype Your phone is the keyboard now

Type and point from anywhere in the room.

Remotype turns the phone in your pocket into a real wireless keyboard and trackpad — with nothing to install on the computer. Search from the sofa, type a URL across the room, drive a terminal from your palm. Swipe typing, real shortcuts, real travel.

In beta, rolling out through the stores now. Write to us for early access — one email when it's live, nothing else.

How it works

Two phones, two superpowers.

The same app, tuned to what each platform does best — and either way, your keystrokes go from your phone to your computer and nowhere else.

Android

A real Bluetooth keyboard — or more.

Your phone connects as genuine Bluetooth HID — the computer sees an ordinary keyboard and mouse. No app, no driver, no server. Works with Windows PCs, Macs, iPads, Linux, smart TVs, even locked-down work machines.

Or pair over Wi-Fi with Remotype Host to unlock the full studio — mirror your computer's screen to your hand, hear its audio, sync the clipboard, jump between computers.

Bluetooth anywhere · Wi-Fi for everything
iPhone & iPad

Wi-Fi, with a featherweight companion.

iPhones can't impersonate Bluetooth keyboards — Apple's rules. So Remotype pairs over your own Wi-Fi with Remotype Host, a free, tiny companion for Mac, Windows and Linux. Keyboard, trackpad, screen mirror, audio — discovered automatically on your network.

Open the host, tap your computer's name on the phone, type.

Local network only · no cloud

What it does

A precision tool, not a remote-app toy.

Machined keycaps with real travel, built to be used while your eyes are on the other screen.

Swipe typing, for your computer

Glide-type with the keyboard you already use — Gboard, QuickPath, any IME — and the words land on the computer. One thumb, 50–60 wpm.

Real keyboard shortcuts

Hold a modifier and tap for chords — Ctrl+C, Alt+Tab, Cmd+Space — or quick-tap to arm it for just the next key. A ring shows what's armed.

Multi-touch trackpad

Move, tap to click, two-finger scroll, two-finger right-click, pinch to zoom, hold to drag-select. Resizable pad, adjustable speed.

The full layout

Esc, Tab, arrows, Home/End, F1–F12 in a collapsible drawer, and media keys — volume, brightness, play/pause — all first-class.

See your computer's screen

Mirror a live, magnified slice of your Mac or PC to your hand — it follows your cursor or the text you're typing. Go fullscreen and steer without looking up.

Hear it, too

Stream your computer's audio straight to the phone — watch from across the room with sound, or listen audio-only with the screen off.

Cast to the big screen

Send your computer's screen straight to a Chromecast or Google TV — picture and sound, no cables, driven from the phone in your hand.

A remote for your TV

Turn the phone into a remote for an Android or Google TV — D-pad, power, volume and a real keyboard for the search box. On Android, nothing to install on the TV.

Present like you mean it

A laser dot, a spotlight that dims the room, freehand ink — rendered live on the screen for the whole audience. Slide controls and a timer sit in your hand.

A studio in your pocket

Dictate to the desktop, type stored passwords behind Face ID, fire macros, tap out a numpad, point with a gyro air-mouse, sync the clipboard, glance at CPU and now-playing — a deck of modes, one swipe apart.

Works where nothing else does

TV-connected PCs, presentation rigs, locked-down work machines that forbid installs — if it accepts a Bluetooth keyboard, it accepts you.

A connection that survives

On Android a quiet foreground service keeps the link alive through screen-off and app-switching, and reconnects to your last computer.

Made to be looked past

The MILLED interface: machined keycaps that press with real travel and instant feedback — designed for eyes-on-the-other-screen use.

Accessible, properly

Large text, screen readers, reduced motion — supported on both platforms, to the same standard as everything else we ship.

Collects no data. None.

No analytics, no accounts, no ads, no cloud. Keystrokes go from your phone to your computer and nowhere else — ever.

A quick look

Machined for the hand. Built for the room.

Remotype's keyboard deck in light mode: modifier keys, navigation cluster and the swipe-typing field.

The deck

Modifiers up top, navigation underneath, your own swipe keyboard at the bottom. Keys press down with real travel and spring back — you can feel where you are without looking.

  • Hold or quick-tap modifiers for chords
  • Esc, Tab, arrows, Home/End in reach
  • Swipe-type with autocorrect, one thumb
Remotype's trackpad view: a large multi-touch pad with left and right click buttons.

The trackpad

A pad the size of your screen. Tap to click, two fingers to scroll or right-click, pinch to zoom, hold a button to drag — with pointer speed tuned the way you like it.

  • Resizable, full multi-touch
  • Natural or traditional scrolling
  • Keyboard + trackpad split view on Apple hosts
Remotype's dark mode: the same machined deck in deep graphite.
The Fn drawer open in dark mode: F1 to F12 and media keys for volume, brightness and playback.

Dark, with everything in reach

A true dark deck for movie-night control, and an Fn drawer that slides out when you need F-keys, volume, brightness or playback — and disappears when you don't.

  • Full dark mode, machined edge to edge
  • F1–F12 + media keys in the drawer
  • Haptics you can switch off
