However, many report intrusive ads, frequent unreliability (crashes, won't open), and device-specific compatibility problems. When functioning, it’s viewed as a strong key mapper; when not, ad burden and instability limit its usability. ### Pros - Simple, easy-to-use interface for mapping keys. - Strong support for core hardware buttons (home, back, recents) and the power button when it works. - Helpful for fixing or bypassing hardware button issues, including ghost touches. - Overall positive reception; many users call it the best/key mapper and praise its simplicity. ### Cons - Persistent, intrusive ads with little or no option to disable them. - Reliability issues: app often doesn't work, crashes, or won't open on some devices/Android versions. - Device compatibility problems (notably Moto G9 Power) and Android version-specific issues. - Some features are not consistently supported (e.g., headphone button remapping) and there can be glitches. ## Similar extensions and apps - [Button Mapper: Remap your keys](https://chrome-stats.com/d/flar2.homebutton) — 6,860,864 users, 3.44 / 5 - [Remap Device Buttons & Keys](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.remapbtnky.devicebuttonkeysremap) — 16,384 users, 3.29 / 5 - [Key Mapper: Remap Your Buttons](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.nishal.button.mapper.remap.keys) — 2,146 users - [Button Mapper: Hardware Remap](https://chrome-stats.com/d/uk.appsby.mapper) — 1,505 users - [Button & Gesture Mapper](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.sumyapplications.button.remapper) — 444,966 users, 3.48 / 5 - [Buttons Remapper: Map & Combo](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.irishin.buttonsremapper) — 2,673,242 users, 3.38 / 5 - [Button Mapper TV QuickActions](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.tv.remote.button.mapper.remap) — 26,378 users, 4.50 / 5 - [Bixbi Button Remapper](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.jamworks.bxactions) — 5,735,984 users, 3.69 / 5 - [Key Mapper & Floating Buttons](https://chrome-stats.com/d/io.github.sds100.keymapper) — 11,731,500 users, 3.52 / 5 - [Button Buddy Pro](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.aljonix.buttonbuddy) — 16,155 users, 2.71 / 5 - [tvQuickActions - mapper for TV](https://chrome-stats.com/d/dev.vodik7.tvquickactions.free) — 182,806 users, 3.82 / 5 - [KeyStar: Button Mapper](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.threestars.keystar) — 585 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.in_so.navigation.buttonmapper)
