Another prompt would then arise on the screen, just press OK option on that prompt.

#3 Tap on the Next button twice inside the EVA Facial Mouse app and then on the screen that shows Keyboard just tap on the Settings button placed in the middle of the screen. This would take you to the device’s main Settings Menu from where you have to go to Language & input menu.

To select or slick on something on the screen hover mouse over that for the brief time and you shall be asked for the completion of the process, just select that by hovering mouse on the preferred option again.
