Comments on Remote Gamepad for Android

★★★★☆ Tonmoy Mirza · Jul 21, 2026

Great controller app! I have a feature request for dense, overlapping button layouts. Currently, Android's default touch handling only consumes the event for the top-most button. Could you add a custom touch delegation feature? Tapping the intersection of overlapping views should dispatch the touch event to all intersecting buttons at once. This multi-button activation is crucial for compact setups. Keep up the good work!

★★★★★ Noob Playz · Aug 1, 2026

Excellent free controller alternative! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This app works incredibly well for PC gaming. The setup is straightforward, and the connection is highly responsive—especially over a USB connection. The layout customization editor is a fantastic feature, allowing me to map keys perfectly for different games. The steering wheel gyro controls are also surprisingly smooth for racing games. It is an amazing, budget-friendly solution, but I have to pay just get unlimited time THANK DEVS

RT and LT not working(I'm using the Red Magic 10 Pro, and I tested it on Withering Waves, ZZZ, and Gen shin.)

★☆☆☆☆ Fabian Bubla · Aug 27, 2026

Very bad software on pc. It messes with my PC. Bluetooth Keyboard stopped working because of this app, and it installs interceptors that read your input. When you uninstall the companion app on pc, then it leaves those interceptors so your pc remains broken. Caused me a ton of headaches

Doesn't even work it says connection failed

★☆☆☆☆ Fuzail Ahmed · Sep 26, 2026
