Download the latest BlueputDroid application, version 1.5.0, compatible with Windows 10/11 (using emulators such as Bluestacks), Android devices. This free Tools app is developed by Berserker and is easy to download and install.

Description
This application will allow to use your device as a remote mouse and keyboard for your PC/PS3.
Since low level apis are used, there is no way by now to ensure 100% compatibility with all devices (because of different bluetooth implementations of some vendors): if the log says "invalid or inactive bluetooth device" your only option is to try a different ROM like Cyanogenmod (if available).
Look at the video tutorials for more info:

Quick tutorial:
- Open the application and click on the start button (top/left button ">")
- Check for errors in the log window
- IMPORTANT: if you got the error "invalid or inactive bluetooth device", your device is not supported and your only option is to try a different ROM like Cyanogenmod (I cannot fix that because the problem is at "kernel" level).
- Pair your device with an host of your choice*
- Once paired, click on the lens button (secondo top/left) to refresh the available bluetooth devices
- Click on a device of your choice to establish a connection
- Once connected a green screen should appear
- Single press to simulate the left mouse button (the background should change in blue)
- Double press to simulate the right mouse button (the background should change in red)
- Hit "menu" to show/hide/change the keyboard
*Tested hosts:
- PS3: works
- Linux: works (tested on Ubuntu 10.10)
- Windows 7: not working yet
- MAC: ? (not tested)
- Vizio Internet TV: works

1 ★ Didn't do anything for me
1 ★ It don't work😭
1 ★ You need to root your phone first
5 ★ K8 doggies for sale@.90idkwone
4 ★ I love this app. I have one problem with it. Why does my ps3 go auto off even when I'm selecting shows and obviously using a "remote" to navigate. I do not have this problem with my actual controller. But I like using this app instead of the controller. Especially since I use my controller on six axis and constantly had to keep changing my BT address. So I have to get up and eject a disc. No biggy just inconvenient. Fix and 5stars
2 ★ I managed to connect to my ps3 with no problems and yes I was able to control the ps3's homescreen with this app, keyboard was also accessible but when I put a game disc in, and play a game, and open the homescreen while in game to send a my friend's messages, it wont work. I noticed its only useable when ur on home screen and not when playing a game. The only reason I would want an app like this is to control the keyboard while in game, this would make it easier for us to type & reply while playing online
3 ★ I have to start off by saying that the app is indeed great. Extremely handy to take full control of your PS3 (I have a phatboy). Works with stock release of Android, but will NOT work with custom roms. Because custom roms are not endorsed or supported by Google, it should not be a negative against the app. The issue is only that support is poor altogether from the developer's end. That is why the 3 stars. Support is a must in this day and age if you are charging for a product or service.
4 ★ Would not work on any custom 4.2.2 roms I tried. Cm10.1.2 fail. SlimBean 7 fail. Resorted to stock root invisiblek rom and it worked like a charm. 4 stars only because there is no ps button to quit an app. But its awesome. I no longer have to worry about my kids losing my remote. Easy to connect. ***Does anyone know if the paid version contains more features?***
1 ★ Now it doesn't work if you're using an ad blocker and it doesn't work if you're running a TW ROM and suggests you switch to a CM ROM. Update: new phone, S4 running Wicked V7 ROM, still doesn't work even after reverting ad-block. Y U NO SUPPORT TW?! /( '^,') /
5 ★ FINALLY someone made a REAL bluetooth HID input device app for Android. I can't tell you how much better it is not to need to download and install extra crap to make those "other" apps work. Couldn't get it working with Windows 7, but as advertised, PS3, Linux, and if I remember right osx also worked. I was also able to use my phone as an input for my tablet AND vice versa, so it looks like Windows 7 is the odd man out (probably implemented incorrectly). Thanks awesome dev!
2 ★ Quick install and set up. Is working perfectly. Really great app. - was my initial review along with 5*. Since it doesn't work at all now, I have uninstalled and given 2 stars. Unless you have no other competitors, I will be waiting for a fix. Otherwise, I have now moved to your best rates competition. Capitalism hurts. Especially when no capital is involved.
3 ★ So I downloaded and installed this app as I had something similar on my iphone. I tried sending a message over PSN only to find that I cant enter some of the basic special characters including but not limited to : ? # $ @ : Standard A-Z characters are fine but anything more than this and it fails miserably. Also, the free version doesnt run with an ad blocker enabled. So you have to run it with ads or buy the Pro version. I would be fine with buying Pro IF it worked properly. Hence my rating of 3 stars. I knocked off 1 star for lack of functionality and the other for not allowing the use of an ad blocker. If the first issue is fixed then I will happily upgrade my rating.
1 ★ Tried several different Roms, and the last one was cyanogenmod (which I'm currently using) as is suggested by the app many times. Still get the error where it is not compatible with my devices Bluetooth stack. Hope there is an update that takes care of this. Really want this to work.
5 ★ Yes there are many limitations (root, firmware and device), but when it works, it's almost magic! Nothing special to do on the controlled computer, I can type letters and move the cursor, amazing! Great work Berserker, I'm definitely gonna get the non-free version.
3 ★ This is a great idea. A shame it doesn't work with Omega 45.1 JB 4.2.2. It. Just complains about the BT stack and recommends Cyanogen ROM. This is a shame as it kind of leaves i9300 users at a loss. AFAIK there is no stable CM JB for this phone.
