Summary

This app receives mixed feedback, with many users expressing frustration over its lack of compatibility with newer 8BitDo controllers, particularly the Ultimate 2 and Pro 3 models, and frequent connection issues. A common bug reported is that the app functions correctly only after initial installation but subsequently gets stuck or fails to connect, necessitating reinstallation. While users appreciate the app's key remapping capabilities and its effective functionality with controllers like the 8BitDo Micro for iPad users (e.g., with Procreate), its macro features are often described as confusing, limited, or non-functional. Many reviews also highlight general performance bugs, UI issues, and a strong demand for comprehensive software updates to address controller compatibility and enhance missing features like QWERTZ keyboard support.
