DeckPad

DeckPad turns your Android phone into a panel of big, customisable buttons for your Windows PC. Tap a key on the phone and your PC does the job: open an app, press a shortcut, type text, control music and volume, or switch OBS Studio scenes.

WHAT A KEY CAN DO
• Open apps, websites, files and folders, or bring an app that's already open to the front
• Press any keyboard shortcut, including F13 to F24
• Type text you use often
• Play, pause, skip, change the volume or mute
• Lock the PC, show the desktop, snap windows and switch virtual desktops
• OBS Studio: switch scenes, start or stop streaming and recording (OBS Studio 28 or newer)
• Run several actions in a row with one tap

MADE FOR YOUR SETUP
• 3×2, 4×2, 5×3 or 8×4 keys per page, and up to 30 pages
• A ready-made Developer page with your coding apps, window snapping and desktop switching
• Use your PC apps' own icons, built-in symbols or your own pictures, with an optional coloured glow
• Edit everything on the phone: long-press any key to change it
• "Ask first" for keys you don't want to press by accident

CONNECTS THE WAY YOU LIKE
• USB cable: fast and reliable
• Bluetooth: no cable at all
• Pair once with a 6-digit code shown on the PC. Only phones you've paired can press your PC's keys

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no ads, no analytics. Your buttons are stored on your own PC and phone and travel only between the two, never over the internet. Nothing is sent to us or anyone else.

GIVE AN OLD PHONE A NEW JOB
Runs on Android 7.0 and newer, so a spare phone or tablet can become a permanent control panel on your desk.

WHAT YOU NEED
• A Windows 10 or 11 PC with the free DeckPad for Windows app running: https://deckpad.expertdev.eu/download.html
• For USB: USB debugging turned on in your phone's developer options (the app shows you how)
• For Bluetooth: your phone and PC already paired in Bluetooth settings
