What is FlexControl

FlexControl is for creating a touchscreen controller from a tablet or phone for applications and games running in Windows. FlexControl is a two-part system that uses a tablet or phone for input and a windows app to receive and relay the commands to games and applications.

Useful tips

• Keybindings in the UI don't match yours, change the used keys in the game or use the editor to change the key set on the buttons in the UI.
• OpenHardwareMonitor is needed for displaying hardware info, start OHM before FlexControl Server.
