About Permissions
Due to the working mechanism of Octopus, it requires the same permissions with games you play. In order to cover all games, Octopus needs many permissions to work properly. We guarantee Octopus won't abuse these permissions!

Octopus Pro
Support more functions. e.g.

Swipe
Draw any path and run it! For games require swipe gestures or pattern drawing. Duration is customizable.

Multiply
Hit a position multiple times. Times and duration is customizable.

Order Key
Set multiple keys with hit sequence. For example, you have 3 order keys with key value A. When you press A first time, No.1 A will act. Second time for No.2 A and third time for No.3 A, then loops. It's pretty useful for some scenes like open/close bag button on different positions.

Analog Deadzone
Deadzone is the area where your analog movement is ignored. For example, set deadzone to 0 to 20 and 70 to 100, that means all displacement less than 20% or greater thant 70% will be invalid, thus when you push your analog to 20% position it will act as 0% and 70% as 100%. Left and right analog can set different deadzone respectively.

Profile
One game with multiple different keymaps for various situation? Profile is what you needed. Under keyboard or gamepad mode, profiles can be created respectively.

Customizable Virtual Mouse Shortcut
While play with gamepad, press LS+RS to invoke the virtual mouse and move it with L/R analog and perform click with LT or A. This is quite practical for TV or some situation you don't want to touch your screen. Now, in Pro version, the shortcut for invoking is customizable.

Pick your gears and start a brand new mobile gaming experience!
Have fun!

Ratings and reviews

Doesn't work with Xiaomi Poco x3. Tried everything. It keeps saying I have to enable the ability to draw over apps. Well I flipped the two options it pulls up in settings that enable this feature and low and behold it still tells me I have to do it. I've tried re opening the app, and going into the settings and looking for further permissions, though it still refuses to work.

The app is good and works well with my controller, but there are two things that bother, the first one is; every game you load seems to create a new profile for the game. So if you were playing it without the app, all of your save data doesn't migrate into the app when you launch the same game. The second issue is minor, but still an issue.. when trying to launch the PS4 Remote Play app, Octopus freezes and I have to force quit. Other than these issues, everything seems to work well and the app is very polished. The interface is clean! I look forward to seeing where this app goes from here.

Works well for controller mapping (the only one I've found that isn't basically a keyboard mapper), but it blocks Google Play Services while in use, which causes most games to effectively have a second save file when played through Octopus. (This means, if you want to use it on a game you've already played a bunch, you'll have to start over. Your progress will still exist if you launch the game without Octopus, though.)

What's new

1. add Free Look key;
