A trackpad in your pocket — and a mouse you can point
Move, click and scroll on your phone just like a laptop trackpad. Or hold your phone up and point it at the screen.
The trackpad is free forever and works everywhere Remotype does — over Bluetooth on Android with nothing to install, or over Wi-Fi with Mac, Windows and Linux.
What you can do
Works like a laptop trackpad
Slide to move, tap to click, two fingers to scroll and right-click, pinch to zoom.
Click and drag
Buttons you can hold down to select text or drag things around.
Set it up your way
Choose how fast the pointer moves and which way scrolling goes.
Air mouse (Premium)
Point your phone at the screen and the pointer follows. Let go and it stops.
Keyboard and trackpad together
Have both on one screen — also free.
How to start
- Android: connect over Bluetooth, or over Wi-Fi with Remotype Host.
- iPhone: install Remotype Host on your computer and connect over Wi-Fi.
- Open the trackpad and start moving.
Worth knowing
- The trackpad is free forever. The air mouse is part of Premium and needs a phone with motion sensors — which almost every phone has.
Good for
- Laptop plugged into the TV, you on the sofa, the mouse nowhere to be seen.
- Leaning back from a big monitor without reaching for the mouse.
- Pointing at a slide from the back of the room.
- The computer under the desk that needs one click every few weeks.
Questions
Is the Remotype trackpad free?
Yes. The trackpad — clicking, scrolling, right-click and zooming — is free forever on iPhone and Android, and so is having the keyboard and trackpad on one screen. The air mouse is part of Premium.
