How to Connect mouse and Keyboard to Android Device

Though the touchscreen keyboard on your smartphone is great for texting, wouldn't it be greater to attach a USB keyboard to your Android phones or tablets? After all, bigger is better when it comes to typing.

Many Android devices support keyboard and mouse which are particularly helpful for people who use any office suite to create documents on their tablet. However, Android phones and tablets don’t have standard, full-size USB ports, so you can't plug a USB peripheral directly into it. To connect keyboard and mouse to Android, you need a USB On-the-Go cable.

USB On-the-Go (OTG) allows two USB devices to take to each other without needing a computer. A USB OTG cable has two connecting ends. One end fits in your Android device and the other end has a female USB connector in which you can connect keyboard/mouse. See the picture below.

How to Operate Android Device Using a Mouse or a Keyboard

Note: Not all Android devices support peripherals with a USB OTG cable. Some devices don't have the appropriate hardware support. Therefore, be sure to Google whether your device supports USB OTG before purchasing a USB OTG cable.

1. First connect the one end of the OTG cable to your Android phone or tablet then connect either a keyboard or a mouse.

2. Once detected, you will get a notification on your Android device.

3. When mouse is connected, a pointer would appear on the screen which you can use to scroll through pages, click on applications and do all basic things a mouse would normally do on computers.

4. When keyboard is connected then you can use your Android device as a computer to edit and create Microsoft office documents much faster as compared to using the tablet's touch keyboard
Now you have successfully connected a USB keyboard or mouse to your Android device. You can work on your Android far more easier and faster than ever before. Since USB OTG cable is such a magic tool, you can also use otg on the go , transfer photos from digital camera to Android directly and share files between Android devices without needing a computer. Just try the USB OTG and make your digital life easier.

Google Forms started life as a Google Sheets feature in 2008, two years after Sheets' original launch. You could add a form to a spreadsheet, format it in a separate sheet, and see your form responses in another sheet. It was basic, but it got the job done. Google added more features to Forms over time, then finally turned it into its own standalone app in early 2016. Today you can make and manage forms at docs.google.com/forms, with templates and quick access to all your forms in one place. Google Forms is now a full-featured forms tool that comes free with your Google account.
