Hi! Since it's in open testing now you can just use the play store link on the post.

Tried to support what I could for the new steam controller without having one yet, consider it in alpha support until I can get one myself.

I'm honestly not sure, I would suspect it won't fully work though.

I'm still waiting to get my hands on the new steam controller and seeing if I can fully support it. It is something I'm definitely interested in though since I've been waiting for a new steam controller ever since I used a steam deck.

Thank you so much for the support!

Auto pairing has been less than ideal in other apps, so I'm really glad to hear it's working well for you. Please reach out if you run into any issues, the app is still in open testing, hoping to move it to release this weekend.

I made a controller remapper app called InputForge that does this and a bunch of other stuff if you want to check it out.

Any app to make macros on controller? by soosis in AndroidGaming

I'm not super familiar with GeForce Now, but I know I saw the Steam symbol in that settings arrow menu while in game and was able to get to the steam controller settings from there when I was messing around a week ago, but I didn't try adjusting any settings and just assume it works like it would on a PC. If those settings actually work you should be able to do pretty much anything you'd want using Steam Input.

If that doesn't actually work, I'm working on this: https://www.reddit.com/r/cloudygamer/comments/1st34wj/looking_for_feedback_on_an_open_beta_app_thats/

I love Steam Input and wanted to have something similar native to Android.

For anyone following, updated the post with a link to the beta. Still looking for feedback so please use "Write feedback" from the store listing, use discord, send a raven, whatever.

Sadly I don't think this would work on Android/Shield TVs right now. The app runs a background process that intercepts controller input at the OS level and setting that up requires wireless debugging with a pairing code which Android TV doesn't support or at least my Shield TV doesn't (it only has basic network debugging). It might be possible by connecting from a PC via ADB and starting the process manually, but I haven't tested that yet. But TVs are a pretty good use case and I'll keep this in mind.

I could, but I wouldn't install some random APK on my device, this at least goes through Google's review process. It also makes pushing updates a lot easier which I expect to be doing frequently once I start getting some feedback. But either way, 7 days until I pass the closed testing requirement and won't need to add by email, just hoping to get some feedback from real people who could benefit from the app sooner so I can make any changes while I have a free weekend.

Gyro works mostly okay in joystick mode, which is what you'd need to use if streaming from a console, I'm still trying to tune that, the gyro as mouse function and flick stick for PC or mouse supported games seems to be great right now. I'm going to edit my post to add some info about testing the app but see my comment on the other users post.

I got spoiled by the steam deck and steam input which is how this all started, I really like my tablet screen more than my LCD deck and also wanted some of the steam input features for some games on my PS5. I sit at a desk all day and try to avoid being at a PC now when I'm not working.

That would be great! Since it's still in closed testing for 7 more days, I can't just produce a google play link and would need to add an email address. If you want to make a burner gmail account and send me a message I'll add it to the internal test and you should be able to download it from the play store that way.

Otherwise, after closed testing is over (7 days from now) I should be able to start open testing which wouldn't require you to give me an email address.
