Start here
- Connect the Typebeam bridge to power and the Typebeam dongle to the target computer.
- Open the Typebeam app and allow Bluetooth access when prompted.
- Keep the app near the bridge, select the advertised bridge, and wait for the link to become ready.
- Use Keyboard mode for live keys or Compose mode to send a block of text.
Troubleshooting
The bridge does not appear
- Confirm the bridge is powered and within Bluetooth range.
- Check that Bluetooth is enabled and that the app has Bluetooth permission.
- On Android, check Nearby devices permission. On iPhone, check Settings → Privacy & Security → Bluetooth.
- Close and reopen the app, then try scanning again.
The target computer does not receive keys
- Reconnect the USB dongle directly to the target computer rather than through an unpowered hub.
- Confirm the bridge and dongle are the matching Typebeam pair and have power.
- Try a simple key such as Enter or an arrow key before sending composed text.
- Check the app status panel for bridge or dongle link errors.
Korean text is not composing correctly
Typebeam sends keyboard input to the host’s existing input system. Confirm that the target computer has a Korean input source enabled and that its language-switch shortcut is configured for your operating system.
