Can I use my Android phone as a controller in PPSSPP for Windows?

[MDAdlaon]

I would like to know if its possible. I can't find any tutorials about it. Or maybe I just don't know the keyword to search for haha. So, yeah. I just want to play my good old PSP games in Windows and use my Android phone as a controller. I think it would feel great

Im pretty sure you cant do that. Beside, why you want to use your phone's touchscreen as a controller when a keyboard is far superior?

Built in to PPSSPP -- no

As a seprate app -- yes there are multiple choices to make your phone a wifi or bt controller for your linux kac or windows computer. Some examples are [Ultimate gamepad], [droidpad], [bt controller], and others.

Btw, accel to be honest for any game that requires percision or speed I would never use a touch screen or keyboard, I would only use a gamepad. For something where timing is not as tight or as many buttons are not needed at one time then I don't really have a preference.

I played lots of game, action hunting (God Eater/MHP3) to third-person shooter (3rd Birthday). Keyboard just fine for me

I did tried playing on touchscreen (via my friend's phone) and holy shit Im grateful that I have a laptop

Yea I just can't play anything faster then Valkyria Chronicles (GEB/MH ect) with a keyboard, though to be fair I can't really play any of those well with a touch screen. I need physical controls that were made to have the thumb, index and middle finger work together.

When I play pc games I love keyboard and mouse, but I guess when I play console games thhey just seem to fit a controller to me better. Plus I never really felt the keyboard was the strong point of keyboard and mouse controls. Without the mouse the keyboard just feels like a a mess of buttons arranged well for writing text but poorly for playing games.

I guess it'll need some time for me to get used to playing with keyboard. I'm currently playing Metal Slug Anthology and it feels weird with keyboard. I prefer my thumb pressing the buttons and sliding it to X to Square, the same way I play with my PSP.

I'm planning on playing next Dissidia 012 Duodecim Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy Crisis Core so I guess the keyboard would suit it very well.

My buttons mapping is probably work really well for all games. I can share how it look, if you guys want

Sure! That would be nice. I'll compare it with my minimal mapping (LOL) and see if it suits me well.

Here it is. Just few notes, the "On-screen Keyboard" shift some keys, like the left "Fn" key with right "Ctrl" key
Just look at your keyboard. It should make sense

Oh, your keypads are mapped to be in the right part of
the keyboard. My right hand isn't very good with it.

My buttons are not like the way it is in PSP LOL but I find it easier
to use in Metal Slug and Tekken 6 (Personal preference, of course haha)

I ain't using analogs yet since I don't have Final Fantasy at the
moment but we'll see how it goes. If it doesn't turn out great,
I'll need to do some workaround and maybe inherit some in
your keyboard map haha.

I don't know whats the purpose of Rapid Fire
and Analog Limiter yet so I ain't touching those LOL.

If you have been playing PC games for some time, you should feel natural in my button map... unless youre left-handed. Then its a different story

Rapid Fire is a function where a button (Square for example) is automatically pressed. Its not as fast as just smashing but its good for going through menus
Analog limiter is a function temporally limit the analog. Some games have separate animation for running (push the analog all the way) and walking (half way push the analog)
