Type on your iPhone using your Windows 11 laptop

I wanted to type on my iPhone using a physical keyboard, but don't typically carry a bluetooth keyboard around. So I made an app that makes a Windows 11 laptop appear as a bluetooth keyboard to iOS.

The first time, you'll have to pair the app as though it was a bluetooth keyboard. After that, just press the button, and keys will be sent to your mobile device until you press escape.

I'd love to hear from anyone else who finds this useful.

Cool. I use remoboard for that reason, it's not bluetooth but it works almost the same way. Give it a try. you basically connect ot it using wifi and you can choose from 2 modes.

Well I just tried this app. I had to toggle bluetooth on the phone as my desktop in tihs case is already paired thanks to me using phone link. I also cannot paste from the windows clipboard, so, can that be implemented, or at least can that be looked into? thanks.

Thanks, I'm glad you found this useful. I'll look into adding the option to paste keys.
