About this app

Stop hunting letters with a D-pad.

Typing a wifi password or a search on a TV means steering an arrow across an
on-screen grid, one square at a time. BeamPad turns your phone into a real
Bluetooth keyboard, mouse and remote, so you can just type.

NOTHING TO INSTALL ON YOUR TV

BeamPad connects over Bluetooth as a standard wireless keyboard and mouse. Your
TV or box sees an ordinary Bluetooth keyboard, so there is no companion app to
sideload and no account to create.

The connection needs no network at all. Pairing and typing work with wifi off,
with wifi broken, or before wifi exists — which matters most when the wifi is the
thing you are trying to set up in the first place.

FULL KEYBOARD

Type into any text field on your TV using your phone's own keyboard — including
autocorrect, swipe input and voice-to-text if you use them. Search boxes, login
forms, wifi passwords, app store queries. Anything that accepts text.

TRACKPAD AND MOUSE

Drag to move the pointer, tap to click, two fingers to scroll. A real Bluetooth
mouse for screens that were never designed for one — web browsers on a TV,
settings menus buried three levels deep, anything a D-pad handles badly.

REMOTE CONTROL

D-pad, OK, back and volume, for when a remote is genuinely the right tool. Use it
as a backup when the real remote is lost, broken or out of batteries.

SAVED SNIPPETS

Store your wifi password, email address or streaming login once, then send it to
any screen with a single tap. No more reading characters off a router sticker
while steering a cursor.

Snippets are encrypted on your device with a key that cannot be exported, kept
behind your fingerprint or PIN, and excluded from cloud backup. They exist on your
phone and nowhere else.

WORKS WITH

Anything that accepts a Bluetooth keyboard:

- Smart TVs — Samsung, LG, Sony, TCL, Hisense
- Android TV and Google TV boxes
- Fire TV sticks and Fire TV devices
- Projectors with Bluetooth
- Windows PCs, Macs and Linux machines
- Chromebooks

If it can pair with a wireless keyboard, it can pair with BeamPad.

WHAT STAYS ON YOUR PHONE

Your snippets never leave your device. There is no account, no sign-up, no cloud
sync and no server — nothing you type is sent anywhere except as keystrokes to
the screen you paired with. Your saved passwords are not uploaded, not backed up
and not readable by us.

BeamPad is free and supported by ads, which are served over the internet when you
have a connection. The ads have no access to your snippets or to anything you
type. A one-time purchase removes them permanently.

Free to use. No subscription.

What’s new

BeamPad turns your phone into a Bluetooth keyboard, trackpad and remote
for your TV. No app to install on the TV, no wifi needed.

Save wifi passwords and logins as snippets and send them with one tap,
encrypted on your device.
