Pc Remote/ Android Phone as Controller via Bluetooth
Spirimint Sep 4, 2019
Hey hey,

i'm trying to use my Phone as a Controller to play some games. I tried max remote, but its working with WiFi.
I get some lags. So i'm looking for a Program who uses Bluetooth Connection.Or maybe just a better Program? Every Program who use Bluetooth only works on Windows. I found.

Is there Program outside i don't find ? :)

I don't know if it can act as game controller, but KDE has the KDE connect thing that can link together your phone and PC for various purposes.

KDE connect does NOT allow you to use your phone as a game controller. It CAN allow you to control media players, or act as a pointer/keyboard input device, but that's about it.

edit: KDE Connect also uses wifi.
