Review summary

DroidJoy Gamepad Joystick is praised for its customization, solid PC connectivity, and motion control features, making it a great alternative to physical controllers. Users appreciate the developer's support and affordable price. However, common complaints include limited separate button placement options, missing gyro calibration, setup/connectivity challenges, lack of physical gamepad support, and occasional input lag or freezing issues.

Pros

Highly customizable button layouts and key mappings.
Seamless connection and reliable recognition by Windows PCs.
Supports accelerometer/gyro for motion controls in racing and other games.
Affordable price with good value compared to buying physical controllers.
Developer responsiveness and good documentation/support provided.

Cons

Incomplete separate button placement (e.g., A, B, X, Y buttons grouped together limiting customization).
Lack of gyro calibration affects gameplay experience especially for racing games.
Connection issues for some users, including unclear server installation process.
No support or limited support for physical gamepads connected to the phone.
Occasional input lag or controls freezing during use.

2025-01-10	Se*****	Excellent application, I give it 5 stars, but why is there an A button, and not others separately. I need to space these buttons under my thumbs. Therefore only 3 stars.

2024-07-09	Gl*****	This is a great app. Up and running in mere seconds. It takes longer to download than set up. The fact it is customisable and and affordable makes it a true winner. 5 stars all the way.

2024-06-09	Ar*****	Such a great app and far far better than the other gamepad apps! It provides seamless connection between PC and Android with customizable buttons. Please add gyroscope support if you can that would take the experience to next level 🙂🤌

2023-04-16	Ph*****	Couldn't get it working even after going through the owner's site and the only video tutorial I found wasn't able to explain why it wasn't connecting to the app on my computer either. The video shows it working and the app maker offers to help by email, but I don't have any more time to spend on this app I paid for.

2022-07-31	Al*****	This works well and set up was a little bit of work, but eventually we figured it out. I used the lite version for a few hours to be sure that it would work with the games we wanted to play, and I ended up buying it. Worth the few bucks to be able to use my tablet and phone to play on PC with multiple people versus having to buy more controllers.

2022-04-19	Tr*****	My current dedicated Bluetooth gamepad only works with my Android devices, but not my Windows 10 laptop. DroidJoy solved this problem as it worked immediately after setup and was very easy to customize. A worthwhile purchase. Please keep up the excellent work!

2021-07-01	Th*****	COMPLETELY USELESS! It could not connect to my PC no matter what I tried or what connection method I used not even bluetooth when my phone was clearly connected to my PC. They also expect you to install a server program on your PC that almost does try to install something that seems suspisious before the setup is complete. Also on the website they are not clear about which server program you need & there are at least 8 versions(both US & UK) & its not clear on which one you'll need.

2021-04-27	Ch*****	A developer who loves his creation! In addition to this being the best of such apps I've come across so far, I'm also impressed with the developer's commitment to consumer satisfaction and responsiveness. Like some others, I initially thought all the positive ratings looked off and strange but after trying the lite version I just had to go pro ! 😂 Kudos to the developer. The app is worth the cost. Runs smoothly and I can customize to suit my preference.

2021-03-26	Th*****	I love it so much! It made my dreams come true. I've always wanted a console for gaming. This is the perfect controller app since all the key mappings and auto xinput work quite awesome. And it works online too. Thanks to who developed this. May your life be blessed.
