What is ControllerKeys?

ControllerKeys is a native macOS app that lets you use any game controller—Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo, Steam, 8BitDo, or Apple TV Siri Remote—as a keyboard, mouse, and input device. Browse, scroll, click, and type from the couch with full button remapping, chord combinations, and customizable joystick sensitivity. The app supports 300+ gamepads and includes touchpad tracking, gyroscope control, swipe typing, JavaScript scripting, per-app profiles, and Mac-to-Mac controller handoff over Wi-Fi.

Designed for couch computing, accessibility, and hands-free workflows, ControllerKeys offers a free 14-day trial with no account required. The maker built it using Claude Code, and the source is available on GitHub with Apple notarization for security.
