For the last few years I’ve been trying to find a gamepad mapper that’s worth using. Most of the apps I found require root, which (on top of being a security risk) I’ve been told that none of my devices can be rooted. I found one app that doesn’t require root but it has a very intrusive list of permissions so I don’t really feel comfortable using it. If you want to know what app I’m talking about, it’s called “Octopus - Gamepad, Mouse, Keyboard Keymapper” and it’s available on the google play store.

I would like to see one that works with android 4 (more specifically 4.1.2) but if it only works with 5 or higher that that’s fine too.
