GamerPad

GamerPad turns your Android phone into a wireless gamepad for Windows PCs and supported Macs.

It is built for games that expect controller input, not just keyboard and mouse shortcuts. Install the desktop companion, connect both devices to the same Wi-Fi network, and use your phone as a virtual controller for Steam games, emulators, racing games, platformers, and local multiplayer.

Features:

- Virtual gamepad input for Windows and supported Macs

- Multiple phones can connect as separate controllers

- Automatic server discovery on the same Wi-Fi network

- QR pairing fallback when auto discovery is blocked

- Dual analog sticks, triggers, D-pad, ABXY, Start, Back, and Guide buttons

- Customizable layouts, button sizes, and visible controls

- Forgiving button touch detection for more reliable taps

- Floating joystick start point for better no-look control

- Haptic feedback and rumble handling where supported

Ideal for:

- Players without a physical controller

- Local multiplayer when friends need extra controllers

- Emulator and retro gaming setups

- Steam games that already support controllers

- Mac users who need gamepad input instead of keyboard mapping

Requirements:

- GamerPad mobile app

- GamerPad desktop companion for Windows or supported Macs

- Phone and computer on the same local network

- A game that supports controller input

GamerPad does not add controller support to games that only accept keyboard and mouse. Gameplay input is sent over your local network. Privacy details for analytics, crash reporting, ads, and purchases are available in the privacy policy.
