How To Use An Android Device as a Wireless Gamepad

Previously, we have posted an Article about using an iPhone as a Joystick to play games on PC. However, we can see more Android devices with people rather than an iOS device. So, if there’s an app that would work with an Android device to make it as a Wireless Joystick and giving games a fair distance to play games. Owning a gaming console can solve all these problems, you can even connect them with an LED Monitor or TV  and wireless Joystick gives you the Advantage.

However, gaming consoles are not cheap, you can purchase a good PC with such money. And if  you do happen to own a PC but tired of playing games using a Mouse and a Keyboard but don’t want to use Cheap Gaming Pads, go ahead and follow our tutorial to use your Android device as a Joystick. The app was Featured on XDA portal and still in its early stage of development, you might find a little amount of features but in future developers have promised to port a lot of new features in it.
