Auto Type

With the auto-type feature, OneMoreSecret turns your smartphone into a keyboard. Depending on the context, you can type your password into a desktop application, share a public key as text etc.
This tool also provides a typical COPY and SEND TO tool bar buttons for the same content.
You can make your phone visible to your PC for 60 seconds if you open the Bluetooth settings (to the left from TYPE) and press the Pairing button. After that, connect to the smartphone from your PC (it will be registered as an input device).

For auto-type to work, select Bluetooth-Target (e.g. your desktop computer) and the correct Keyboard Layout (to the right from TYPE). Then press TYPE.
If the the strokes are generated too fast for the target system (this is mostly the case if you are auto-typing into a Remote Desktop session), it can result in a wrong entry. Please activate delay in this case.
Long story short: select the Keyboard Layout that matches that of your target PC. Active CAPS-LOCK on your physical keyboard will result in a wrong input as well.
A keyboard is not aware of its layout, the same is true for the auto-type tool. If you press ";" on the US keyboard, there is a key code behind it: 51. Depending on the keyboard layout of your operation system, your PC will make out of it:
- ";" for English keyboard layout
- "ö" for German keyboard layout
- "ж" for Russian keyboard layout
...or the other way: if I wanted ";" to be typed from the German layout, I would send SHIFT + key code 54 instead.
Please open a feature request on GitHub if you need a keyboard layout for your language.
