Get started with Bluda Cheatcode / Quick Start Guide

Welcome to a smarter way to learn. This get started guide will get you up and running in minutes. Let’s get you set up to outsmart, not just study.


1. Getting to Know Your Cheatcode

Your device is designed for intuitive, discreet control. Hold it like a normal textmarker.

  • Control Button: The physical button located near the USB-C charging port. Used for power and advanced commands.
  • Safety Sensor: The invisible sensor on the front surface where your thumb or finger naturally rests. The device is only listening for touch commands when you are touching this sensor, preventing any accidental scans or taps.
  • Primary Touchpad: An invisible touchpad on the side of the marker. This is your main “action” button for scanning and getting answers.
  • Secondary Touchpad: An invisible touchpad on the opposite side of the marker. Used for navigating back or starting fresh.

(Note: In the Cheatcode App, you can configure the Primary and Secondary touchpads for left or right-handed use.)


2. The Basics: Power On & Get Ready

  1. Power On/Off: Press and hold the Control Button to turn your Cheatcode on or off.
