About InputStick receiver:
InputStick acts as a proxy between your Android device and PC (or any other USB host): data received from USB Remote (or any other compatible app) is sent to USB host as keyboard and mouse actions. It pretends to be a generic USB keyboard and mouse device, so there is no need to install any software or custom drivers on the PC as it will see no difference between InputStick and generic USB keyboard.
InputStick is easy to use: just plug it into USB port and after a few seconds it is ready to go. In most cases there is no need to configure anything.
InputStick can be used in situations when software-only solutions will not work: working with BIOS, in recovery mode, or when PC has no network access or software installation is not allowed by system administrator.
Currently supported keyboard layouts: Belgian (FR/NL), Canadian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English (UK/US/international/Dvorak), Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (BR/PT), Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Swiss (FR/DE)
