Needs to be updated to work on galaxy fold 8 because 20% of sreen won't let me add buttons for mapping

This app is honestly amazing, but there is one problem, it stops working out of nowhere sometimes, but it almost never happens, sometimes while I'm playing a game if the mantis app has been running for a while it will suddenly remove all the controls and buttons I added as well as the buttons I added, but they are still there I just need another token to use the mantis app, but honestly it's still a very good app, and I would recommend using it

This app is very useful for playing games that are preferred by controller play. I don't like the difficult setup process and the input speed for the buttons, they are slightly slower than I would like, but for the average mobile gamer who also likes controller, it is a very nice app for that purpose.

One of the worst experiences I've had with an App. Tried to set up the button layout, but for some reason pressing down on a switch keypad closes the application and wastes one of the 10 free credits they give you. So I've wasted 2 credits and don't feel like trying anymore if the UI is this clunky.

YOU HAVE TO PAY WHEN YOUR CREDIT IN THE APP ENDS YOU ONLY GET 20 CREDIT ONLY EACH LAUNCH CHARGES 1 CREDIT

One of the greediest one... stopped using it because I didn't have a controller anymore, it's been 3 years and the free version is outrageous. Do not download

Does not support PS4 touchpad and explicitly ask to use virtual mouse. Not cool
