Android phone as a gamepad for your PC
VirtualGamePad lets you use your Android phone as a gamepad for your PC (Windows and Linux).
It's similar to paid apps like DroidJoy, but free and open source.Benefits of using VirtualGamePad:
  • Free and Open Source: No ads, no tracking, no paywalls.
  • Secure: The code is open for anyone to review. No need to trust a random app from who-knows-where.
  • Easy to Use: Just install the app on your phone and the server on your PC. Connect via Wi-Fi and enjoy!
  • Economical & Eco-friendly: No need to buy a new gamepad. Use your old phone instead. Save money and reduce e-waste.
Download the server for your PC and start playing now!
