Do you love doing things such as sending text messages from your phone but hate using the tiny on screen or slide out keyboard? Of course there is always the speech to text option but many times it doesn't quite translate right if you don't have good reception or don't talk slow or loud enough. If you are an avid texter and just happen to be by your computer while your texting marathon happens to be going on then WiFi Keyboard may be exactly what you are looking for.
WiFi Keyboard uses your home wireless, cellular or even USB connection to make what you type on your computer's keyboard show up on your Android phone or tablet. When using WiFi Keyboard you will actually see the text typing into your phone as you type it on your computer. The text is entered via a simple web interface on your computer that gives you a text box to type in the text itself. You can even copy and paste text from documents or web pages from your computer right to your device.
By default it will show the text being typed into your phone or tablet as you type but not on your computer screen. Pressing the F4 key on your keyboard will switch the editing mode to your computer rather than your Android device. Then after you are happy with what you typed you would press F4 again to have it sent to your phone or tablet and then you can send your text message. WiFi Keyboard can also be used with other apps that allow text input so it's not just limited to text messaging.
Once you download and install the app you will need to configure your Android device to allow WiFi Keyboard as a text input method. This is done in your device's settings under Language & keyboard settings. Just simply check the box that says WiFi Keyboard and you are almost there.
Now when you are in a text box area on your Android you will need to change the text input mode to WiFi Keyboard by long pressing in the text box area and then releasing and you will get an Input Method selection where you can choose WiFi Keyboard. Now you are ready to start typing on your computer's keyboard and have the text sent to your phone or tablet as you type. When you are done you can simply do the process again and choose Multi-touch keyboard to go back to the way it was before.
To get to the proper webpage on your computer for the text input you will need to open a web browser and go to one of the following addresses you are given in the WiFi Keyboard app. Simply type one of the addresses into the address bar of your browser and press enter and you will be all set.
They say that Internet Explorer is not supported and Chrome is your best bet but it worked just fine in Firefox for us. If you are going to use WiFi Keyboard with your wireless connection then make sure it's enabled on your device first for best results.
WiFi Keyboard can be downloaded from the Google Play Store or sent to your device via the online Android Market.
