Rickey is an app that wirelessly connects your Android smartphone or tablet to a Windows PC, using it as a keyboard and mouse pad.
With Rickey, you can input data and perform various operations on your PC using touch controls from your smartphone or tablet. It connects wirelessly to the PC you want to control via Bluetooth. Unlike typical on-screen keyboards, the soft keyboard is displayed on a separate screen, allowing you to use a larger area of your PC's screen. You can also use your smartphone as a remote control, operating your PC from a short distance away. Rickey also has an auto-scan function that is convenient for people with physical disabilities who have difficulty operating a PC keyboard.
Ver. 2 of Rickey+ adds a mouse pad function and automatically adjusts the soft keyboard display size to match the screen size. It is compatible with smartphones and tablets with screen sizes of 5 inches or larger.
When using Rickey, the dedicated connection software "RickeyTray" must be launched on the PC you want to control. For details on obtaining RickeyTray, initial setup, and connecting to a PC, please see the following page.
