Now that we know we can control the device with the MultiBlue Dongle, we will work towards being able to do that same thing without physical access and without the MultiBlue. In addition, we may want to open a terminal to run in the background so that we can use it (when in range). One of the things we may want to do is download the mobile device spyware that I demonstrated here in this article. Now that we have control of the device, we can do just about anything we want with it (while it is in range).
Now, we have both our keyboard and mouse to control of the phone or tablet! Step 5: How to Use It Click on the MultiBlue icon and it will open a subdirectory showing two choices, Win and Mac.

Now let's see how to connect to an Android device and control it via your computer keyboard. With an antenna, this range can be extended.

This dongle is capable of connecting to any Bluetooth device and enabling you to use your computer keyboard to control the device.
