Description by Enrique Anthony Galea (from Google Play)
With KeyStar, you can take total command of your Android device's buttons to perform the exact actions you need.

Add up to 10 actions for each button. Not enough? Add contexts to perform a different set of actions based on the currently open app.

Still not enough? Combine KeyStar with Tasker to create your own actions and hotswap configurations on the fly based on your own rules.

Remapping works always, even with the screen and Always On Display turned off. No root needed.

Soft keys, such as home, back, and recents, are also supported. KeyStar allows you to add your own actions on top of the existing functions provided by these keys.

The engine parameters can be fine tuned to your liking. You can adjust the delays for short presses, long presses, and even customise the volume change speed when holding down the volume buttons.

Supported keys:
• Volume Up
• Volume Down
• Side Key
• Home
• Back
• Recents

Supported triggers:
• Single
• Double
• Triple
• Quadruple
• Quintuple
• Single Long
• Double Long
• Triple Long
• Quadruple Long
• Quintuple Long

Supported actions:
• Last App
• Open App
• Auto Rotate (Enable / Disable / Toggle)
• Sound Mode (Sound / Vibrate / Silent / Cycle)

For advanced users, KeyStar also has Tasker plugin support. For example, you can hotswap configurations on the fly based on your own logic, and more.

Comments on KeyStar: Button Mapper for Android

★★★★★ Scott · Apr 23, 2026
Works well, tons of options and features. Setup was simple with some minor hiccups. This is what Register should've been, you've outdone Samsung by a long shot. There should be a trial period before you have to pay for the features, even if it was just a day to make sure everything works. Not a bad price for the features provided though. Tip for anyone, if you get the "Bixby is disabled" toast when using side button, use Register to remap the button to do nothing
★★★★★ Tony Snark · Jun 26, 2026
Amazing! The app works perfectly. As a long timer user of a discontinued app with the same goal as this one (side Actions), I needed an alternative. What I found was even better! The dev of this app was also a user of the same app who decided to release its replacement, and I'm so glad they did! Also, really responsive; I wrote up some improvements/suggestions, and they responded the next day and had an update with nearly all the suggestions within a few days. Absolutely worth paying for this app!

Doesn't do anything useful an absolute waste of time
