Works perfect on sgs3, no need for a laptop anymore just a OTG cable! Woop!! Only downside is the UI it would be nice if it was a little better, and if it was, i'd easily spend 2-5$ on it. But until there's a UI update, free version it is. Ps. Just because of the UI it's not worth taking away a star, this app is great.

Still very raw, not a lot of features. One problem on Gallaxy S2, "i" key only comes up in UPPER case. Can't seem to find a way to get a lower case "i", there fore making this unusable for me. I can type a lower case "i" in the macro setup, but not directly from the KB to the screen.

There is no menu. No hint at which cable you're supposed to plug into the OTG cable. I have 3 OTG cables and a selection of the USB to serial adapters. It would be helpful if the writer could give a hint as to what is compatible cable-wise...
