Use Bluetooth Keyboard With Your iPhone

Posted under Accesories, Applications, Downloads by Kris on Saturday 26 December 2009 at 1:06 pm

Well, here is a Christmas gift for all you iPhone lovers out there. Remember the time when you wished that your iphone could support your bluetooth keyboard? Well, Santa granted your wish (kind of :P)

A new app is out which will enable you to use bluetooth keyboards with your iphone. And guess what jailbreakers? This app only works on a jailbroken iphone :D and your ipod touch too (Not yet tested with an iPhone2g)

The only limitation of the app is that the input method only works from inside the app. This means that you will have to copy paste the text in any other app, you cannot directly enter text in another app. But, no worries, its much faster than your standard iphone type speed.

Okay, enough of riff raff, here is how you proceed :-

  1. Download the bluetooth keyboard driver available in Cydia *Click Me*
  2. Start Keyboard Demo
  3. Make your bluetooth keyboard discoverable (read your Keyboard Manual)
  4. Select keyboard in device list
  5. You will get a PIN code alert, enter this PIN in your keyboard.
  6. TADA! You are now connected and you can enter text into the provided text field from your keyboard.

Thanks to ringwald for developing this awesome app.

Please share your experiences with this app through comments and let us know if you run into any trouble.

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to all readers out there. ;)
