Review summary

Button Mapper is valued for its core ability to remap hardware keys and add practical actions, and is noted for being simple to use. However, recurring drawbacks include a restrictive Pro/paywall with unlock issues, reliability problems (remappings failing or resetting, especially on TVs), and Android TV limitations. Additional frustration comes from unlabeled custom buttons and unclear backup/restore paths. Overall, it’s functional but hampered by paywall friction and stability concerns.

Pros

Effectively remaps hardware keys (e.g., volume, power) and supports various button mappings.
Simple to use for basic tasks and works as described.
Adds practical features like a dedicated flashlight button on some devices.
Valued for customization and essential for users who want customizable button behavior.

Cons

Pro unlocks and paywall are frequently problematic; users report issues purchasing or accessing Pro features.
Remappings can be unreliable or reset (e.g., back button mapping only works on first press; settings reset when the TV turns off).
Android TV users report limitations and paywall restrictions affecting functionality.
UX/UI clarity issues (customized buttons lack labels; backup/restore paths on Google TV are unclear).
