Btc Mouse And Trackpad

UPDATE (15/Nov/2012): answering a question, I've elaborated on the tweak's ability to highlight (and, then, copy / cut) text as you'd do with a true mouse. It can't be done with native iOS apps. The tweak is 'just' a touch simulator. That is, if you long-click a word, it'll be highlighted and the two handles will appear at the beginning / end of the word. These handles can, then, be dragged by the mouse in exactly the same way as you'd do with your finger. When released, the usual pop-up menu is displayed with the usual options (Copy etc.) Genuine text selection only works with remote desktop controllers in their non-touch emulation mode. For example, with AlwaysOnPC, you must switch to ' Mouse mode' from the default ' Touch screen mode' by clicking the fifth icon.

It's only then that you'll be able to highlight text in the usual way, by just dragging the cursor. Unfortunately, this mode cannot be used regularly as the remote mouse cursor will be different from that of the local one, unlike in the default ' Touch screen mode'. The latter is far easier to operate; it's just that it doesn't support mouse dragging for text selection.

UPDATE (19/Oct/2012): see for a quick report on the just-released version 1.1-2. UPDATE (11/Oct/2012): post (an answer to my review below) and thread (calling this tweak essential and also explaining why) are also worth checking out. Original article: You may remember article, where I shown whether the then-current iOS mouse drivers (apps that made external Bluetooth mice work with iDevices) were any good. Back then, not much: with the free, old “ BTstack Mouse” app, you could do little, had to work with a separate Bluetooth implementation meaning incompatibility issues and connection initiation problems and the like. Needless to day, remote desktop controllers didn't work properly, either. The developer of “BTstack Mouse” has just released a commercial tweak, “ BTC Mouse & Trackpad” (), which brings (almost) full mouse support with really few drawbacks.

Needless to say: as with all great system-wide tweaks and enhancements, this – a utility that would work on more open and, in many respects, much more advanced operating systems like Symbian or Android just fine, without any kind of “hacking” – also requires jailbreaking. If you don't jailbreak, you can stop reading this article right now as you in no way can use external mice with your device. The tweak costs $4.98, unless you've an existing customer of one of the developer's other, commercial apps, “ BTstack Keyboard” (also quickly reviewed ). If you are, you end up having to pay only half of the price. Just make sure you're logged in into Facebook / Google using Manage Account >Connect with Facebook / Sign in with Google in the main Cydia tab. Then, you'll be shown the following app info screen (a screenshot of it being presented to me, an old, legal customer of BTstack Keyboard): (as with all the other images in the article, click the thumbnail to see a much better-quality version.

After installation (and a respring), navigate to the standard Bluetooth (BT) dialog under Settings >General >Oui Magazine Download Free. Bluetooth and tap “ Activate Mouse & Trackpad” (annotated with a red rectangle below): The app connects to the developer's server to check whether the tweak has been pirated; if it isn't, it's activated.

Note that I don't know whether the number of activations you can do is limited. I've installed the tweak on three iDevices (iPad 2, 3 and an iPt 4, all running iOS 5.

You can start set your BT mice discoverable; as soon as your iDevice discovers them, just tap their name as you'd do with any regular BT device.
