Great app. Have been looking for something like this for a fair while, Blueputdroid has been dead for along time it seems. This works perfectly on Nexus 6 rooted 6.0.1. Just need to follow the TWRP instructions to get the Bluetooth patched. Thanks dev, will purchase after trial has expired.

Awesome - Paste from Android clipboard feature was added by very responsive developer. Now I can use my tablet to type long complicated passwords into my PC -- copy from password manager, paste into True Mouse/KB, it's as if I'd typed it at the keyboard. It's like Yubikey with an infinite number of passwords available at the click of a button! Rooted cyanogenmod, because the Android team hasn't added the HID capability to the bluetooth stack...still. Settings: Peer device type: "Windows desktop/HTPC/laptop/tablet", Bluetooth device class: "Mouse/Keyboard combo"
★★☆☆☆
Worked great while I was traditionally rooted. Now I am on a Magisk 11.1 ROM with MagiskSU. This app can no longer find superuser, and now can't start up.
★★☆☆☆
Did not work. Test it on two different models of Nexus devices with latest Lineage OS and root access. I also rebooted the devices. Did not work at all.
★★☆☆☆
Gkod idea. But does not work on S8. "An app requires Bluetooth+ from Google play" , in GPlay "item not found. "
★★☆☆☆
You must have a rooted device in order for this app to work. Wish it would mention that before people download it.
