About this app

BT Controller turns your Android device into a controller for any emulator that supports custom buttons.

• Play console games anywhere
• Control emulators on your TV, Tablet, or Phone
• Supports up to 4 players
• Use Bluetooth or Wifi to connect your devices
• Create your own controllers or download from 1000's of user made controllers

PLEASE NOTE: Location permission is now required, by Google, for Bluetooth scanning.
This app can not control physical consoles. Only Android™ apps and games that have keyboard controls.

Basic instructions:
1. Open BT Controller on the device that will run the emulator
2. Click 'Create Host'
3. Follow the directions to enable the BT Controller Keyboard and then activate it
4. Open BT Controller on another device that will be used to control the emulator
5. Select the Host device in the Wifi or BT Host list
6. Open an emulator on the Host device
7. Use the emulator settings to map the BT Controller buttons to the emulators buttons

I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 and I can not get this to connect to my Nexus 7 (2013) via Bluetooth. I can via wifi, but I want to use this on the train/plane where wifi isn't available. I can connect in other apps via Bluetooth like ES File Explorer and transfer files. I can also connect to controllers/speakers and I can even pair the two devices to share internet. But this app doesn't work. UPDATE: my s7 died, so i cant troubleshoot this anymore. It works fine with ny note 9.

Hi, I was able to test this on the same devices but didn't have any issues with Bluetooth. Does the host appear in the bt device list in the app?

I used this for making art, And it works fairly well. Wish I could figure out how to line things up and make a graphical change but making a background isnt difficult. I use this app on my phone and have it linked to my Android tablet running Krita. This App allows me to use hotkeys without having to own a BT keyboard or plugging in my USB one. Really nice stuff, wish I could figure out the macro/ wish it had a vertical orientation.
