Type2Phone makes it easy to use your Mac’s keyboard to type into any of those devices. Posted on by scrooks Apps I Use: Type2Phone It’ll take time to tell how the Bumpies will wear with use, but for now I’m very happy with them. My phone still feels like my phone and not a case with something in it. They extend around the sides of the phone enough that all the sides are similarly protected. There’s just enough “lip” on the sides of each Bumpy that I can safely lay down (or drop!) my phone and the screen or back won’t be touched. It took less than 5 minutes and now I’m all Bumpied up. The box the Bumpies come in doubles as an alignment guide. Opening the packaging reveals the instructions: Simple Install ![]() The packaging is nicely innovative: Package, Sans Bumpies (The science of glue is sophisticated these days.) I decided to take the plunge and give them a try.Īfter a couple of weeks of living in fear of dropping my phone, my Bumpies finally arrived. ![]() I worried they’d mar my phone in some way if I took them off, but again my research showed it wasn’t so. I worried they’d come off when I pull my phone out of my pocket, but reading lots of Amazon reviews convinced me it probably wasn’t a problem there’s a bevel to the edges that helps prevent that. They come in a variety of colors, including mixing different colors, but I chose grey to match my phone and because I really like grey. That was exactly the case I’d been looking for without knowing it. They essentially took a standard bumper and stripped off all the superfluous material. Yeah, that’s a weird picture of the “case” because there’s not much to it. Here’s what they look like in blue (I chose gray): Bumpies, Front, Side, & Back, Sans Phone This thing is begging to be dropped.īefore I began the hunt for another bumper-like case, I serendipitously discovered Bumpies. The downside is that it feels much less secure in my somewhat dainty man-paws. So much so that I find I’m using my iPad Air much less. ![]() It’s decidedly bigger, much bigger, but I have come to love having such a big screen. Now I’ve moved up (literally) to an iPhone 6+. For my iPhone 5S I got a cheaper third-party case, but it was still basically a bumper. ![]() A bumper is just enough to protect the corners in a fall, and it worked great. When I got my iPhone 4S, Apple was selling its line of bumpers and I was quite happy with that. I do fear dropping the dang thing since I use it so much, but i like how thin my phone is and don’t want to destroy that with a case. At the moment the application is on sale but it is possible that it will go up in price soon since it has been discounted for a few days, so Take advantage of that for now it costs € 1,99. The requirements are to have OS X 10.6.6 or later installed on the Mac and to have Bluetooth connected to be able to synchronize, as for the supported keyboards in iOS they are all including the Spanish ISO.When it comes to cases for my iPhone I’ve always been a minimalist. The only thing that seems to have not been improved since its launch, which was a few years ago, is that we have to be aware of the first connection with the iPhone so that it is paired, the rest always works without problems. In the case of the Mac, it is to enter the System Preferences> Bluetooth and in the iPhone it is activated from the Settings as well. The operation is very simple and only requires having the IPhone and Mac Bluetooth enabled with the "Visible Mode" option for it to work, otherwise these cannot be paired. Everything we want to write on our iOS device can be done directly from the Mac keyboard with this application. We are talking about Type2Phone, an application that we have previously seen on I'm on Mac and that will help us to write directly on our iPhone, iPad or Apple TV (requires tvOS 9.2 or higher) via bluetooth and with the comfort of our physical keyboard. This is one of those applications that can be useful in some situations and for the price that is right now with this discount you can buy it quietly.
