This app creates an interactive learning and prototyping environment to control an Arduino LCD using Bluetooth communication.

Send characters and commands to an LCD display and watch your changes in real-time. No more needing to flash an Arduino Sketch every time you would like to test a simple change!
Ideal for beginners who are learning about LCD programming, LCD program planning, or just some all-round good fun for anyone.

Currently only works with a compatible 16x2 LCD module but I hope to add 16x4 and 20x4 modules in the near future as well as the I2C adapter.

In order to use this app correctly, you will require the Arduino companion sketch available on the website at: https://installtekz.com/ArduinoLCD

This app along with it's companion sketch utilizes the Arduino 'LiquidCrystal' library.

*Although I have translated everything in the app its self, I have not tested this app thoroughly enough using various Android language keyboards with the LCD as there may be character issues.
