About the App

Game Controller Tester is your friendly toolkit for checking, testing, and just plain messing around with all kinds of game controllers and input devices. If you’re the sort of person who likes to know exactly what your gamepad, joystick, or even keyboard is up to, this app’s got you covered. Whether you’re running it on your Android device or through BlueStacks, it gives you a straightforward, hands-on experience to really see how your hardware is behaving.

App Features

  • Works with Most Controllers
    Try out pretty much any game controller or joystick you have lying around. Plug it in or connect it, and Game Controller Tester will recognize and play with it.

  • Live Graphical Feedback
    Watch your button presses, stick movements, touches, and even sensor data light up on screen in real-time. No more guessing whether your triggers are actually working.

  • Mini Twin-Stick Shooter Game
    Feel like actually using your controller for a quick arcade break? There’s a built-in mini game you can play to put your sticks and buttons through their paces.

  • Vibration & Haptic Check
    Give your controller a little buzz—test out things like vibration, force feedback, and general haptics, just to make sure every shake and rumble works.

  • LED Testing
    If your device features LEDs, you can see if they light up and glow like they’re supposed to.

  • Mouse and Pointer Device Support
    Game Controller Tester recognizes mice and other pointing hardware, letting you check if every click or scroll is picked up cleanly.

  • Keyboard Input
    Curious if every key registers as it should? Plug in your keyboard and try it out.

  • Touchscreen & Touchpad Testing
    Even your phone’s screen or touchpad isn’t left out. Run a quick test to confirm every tap and swipe is picked up.

  • Sensor Testing
    If your device has gyros, accelerometers, or similar sensors, you can see exactly how they’re responding to movement.

  • Detailed Event Logging
    Want to get into the nitty-gritty? The app keeps a log of every input event for you to review at your own pace.

  • Record Input Data
    For those who like to dig deep, you can record your input sessions to a CSV file, making it easy to analyze or save your test results for later.

Brought to you by POW Games UK in the Tools genre, Game Controller Tester makes hardware testing way less tedious—and maybe even a little bit fun.
