Document updated · August 21, 2026

Quick start

Three steps are enough.

  1. 1

    Tap Connect in Omny Pad.

    Turn on Bluetooth and allow Nearby devices access when Android asks. Your phone becomes discoverable.

  2. 2

    Pair from the device you want to control.

    Start pairing in the Bluetooth settings of the host—such as a Mac, PC, or iPad—not on the phone.

  3. 3

    Confirm the code and start using it.

    Approve the pairing request and Omny Pad connects automatically. Move the on-screen trackpad to confirm the connection.

Troubleshooting

Paired, but nothing moves?

Windows says connected, but the trackpad does not respond.

Remove the phone pairing in Windows Bluetooth settings, keep Omny Pad's connection screen open, and pair again. Keyboard and mouse services may be recognized during the new pairing.

The phone does not appear in the host list.

Tap Connect in Omny Pad to make the phone discoverable, then check that Bluetooth and Nearby devices access are enabled. Refresh the device list on the host as well.

The connection drops frequently.

Bring the host and phone closer, remove the existing pairing, and reconnect. Also check power saving and manufacturer-specific background restrictions.
