ArcRelay: PC Remote Gamepad

VeronaLabs Apps

About this app

ArcRelay turns an Android phone or tablet into a controller for a Windows PC on your own network.

IMPORTANT: ArcRelay needs a Windows 10 or 11 PC running the free ArcRelay receiver. The phone app on its own cannot control a computer. Download the receiver at https://virofactory.site/arcrelay

PAIR IN SECONDS
Open the receiver on your PC, choose "Find computers" on your phone, then scan the QR code or type the six-digit code. The phone shows you which computer it found and asks before connecting. Paired PCs are remembered until you revoke them.

MORE THAN A GAMEPAD
Send gamepad buttons, D-pads, analog sticks, triggers, sliders, motion sensors, steering, a touchpad, a trackpad, mouse movement, volume, mute, media keys and your own keyboard bindings.

BUILD THE LAYOUT YOU WANT
Start from the offset, symmetric or steering-wheel presets, then move, resize, rotate and group controls in the layout editor. Change artwork, backgrounds and opacity, bind any control to the input you need, and edit on the phone or from the Windows receiver. Layouts stay in sync between both.

PHONE AND TABLET
Layouts adapt to screen size and orientation, so a tablet gives you larger targets without rebuilding anything. Optional haptics on supported devices.

LOCAL AND PRIVATE
There is no account to create and no cloud service in between. Your phone talks directly to the PC you chose, over your own network, USB tethering or Bluetooth where supported. Pairing uses certificate-pinned transport, and the receiver never installs drivers behind your back.

WHAT YOU NEED
- Android 6.0 or newer
- A Windows 10 or 11 PC with the ArcRelay receiver installed
- Both devices on the same local network, or connected by USB tethering
- ViGEmBus on Windows for virtual Xbox-controller output, installed separately from its official source

Sensor, haptic, Bluetooth and USB features depend on your device hardware and permissions.

TRY IT WITHOUT A PC
Open "Try controller demo" to explore the controls and the editor offline, with nothing to connect and nothing sent anywhere.

ArcRelay is in open beta and free while we finish it. Questions or bugs: [e-mail]
