Windows 10 1903 problem:
DInput is no longer supported in the server version 2.1.0. If you still need to use DInput you must use the DroidJoy server version 2.0.4 and you must have installed an older Windows version than Windows 10 build 1903.
With DroidJoy you can use your Android Smartphone as PC Joystick / Controller. Almost every game is supported due DInput and XInput emulation. Play games like GTA V, Call of Duty, Need for Speed, Sonic Mania, GTA San Andreas, Counter Strike and many more.
If you have any problems with the installation of the server, don't hesitate to contact me. I will reply as soon as possible.
!Be sure the DroidJoy server is running when you start your game or emulator. The game may not recognize gamepads which are plugged in during its runtime. In this case, simply restart your game!

- Running DroidJoy server on your PC
- Android version 5.0 (Lollipop) or higher
Version 2.0
- Real gamepad emulation
* Multi Client support

* Use WiFi or Bluetooth connection
- X-Box 360 controller emulation with native XInput driver

Information
- If you want to connect more than one Smartphone with your PC, you have to configure the same amount of virtual gamepads in the server application.
Note: It can have several reasons if your game doesn't recognize the virtual gamepad as input device. Some new games just support X-Box gamepads and won't work with DInput gamepads. If you want to play a game which only supports PC-X-Box gamepads, you have to configure the DroidJoy server to emulate XInput devices.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
4 ★Buttons Z and C won't work when configuring controls in any game. I downgraded to 2.0.4 server in your github to fix my problem. It is unfortunate that DInput is no longer supported...
5 ★does what it says. Very Nice controller just wish the action buttons were a bit bigger. Maybe add a feature to use custom layout by watching add too.
5 ★Does what it says. I was bit hesitant seeing so many negative feedbacks but really glad I gave it a shot. Installation and first time setup is stupidly simple. Don't really get the bad reviews. Ads are not even that long and intrusive as some users claim. If you want to use your touch device as a controller for Windows, this the way to go. Don't usually do reviews but seeing so many unnecessarily dumb ratings and developer trying so hard to solve the issues I felt obliged.
3 ★It worked well, but it felt a little bit cheeky offering a free version but then you have to pay for a controller layout that actually makes sense. It's kinda hard to convince my family or friends to download an app and then they have to each pay individually just to get a good controller layout and/or remove the ads. I'd rather buy the software on PC for more and then the pro app is free. Then all my friends and family don't have to pay every time I introduce them to it.
5 ★I barely rate apps but this is an exception, it works like a dream, this is just down right awesome, I was thinking of building an app like this when I graduate, but you guys have already done it, the instructions are super easy to follow, immediately went to try it on my PES 2017 on PC and it works perfectly, I would totally recommend this, would give it a seven star if possible. Great job from the devs. I think the full version is worth the pay
5 ★The app works great and stable IF you are used to advanced app/program installation and basic server stuff and you respect the dev's documentations. Remember to use this virtual gamepad on the right type of game. On others like FPSs it might be a little clunky, specifically in the camera control part. It might has annoying bugs from time to time, but instead of heading to write a critical review immediately, try contacting the dev first, he does give a damn on his creation.
5 ★New review: The gamepad is really good, it's quite stable and the pairing process is quite easy. The default layout is quite nice, and it is quite similar to a real controllers layout. The controller can connect to most games I tested, including Magicka 2 and Steam Big Picture, so its good. The feedback I can give is to include some minimal sound effects and maybe add L2 and R2 on the touchscreen, as it could be more ergonomic that way. The ads are fine and don't hurt gameplay. Thanks!
3 ★Couldn't get it to work. Tried everything to get my phone to find the server and absolutely nothing works. Tried wired and Bluetooth connections, followed all steps exactly and even tried adding the server manually but, still nothing. EDIT: Disabled windows defender and firewall and still couldn't get it to work. Only message I got was that my phone couldn't find the server. Will give it another go. Upping rating due to devs responsiveness and willingness to help.
3 ★Update Review : Ok i just gotta say it actually works damn well on a FPS game. No lag nothing. I even played Brawlhalla which is a super fast 2d online fighter game and it works smoothly. Also noticed there's another version to it so i don't mind paying for that. Highly Recommended. I suggest you change the Logo and make it look more simple but sick 👏. Might actually get some traffic
5 ★Great, actually acts as a controller instead of a keyboard.
2 ★Seems to work, but the business model is horrible. If there's any G-Sensor functionality available, it should be mork straight forward to find. Being stuck in the free version without being able to properly test the app does not help, since the templates are very limited and custom designs cant be used. Why allow the user to make them then? The interface has great potential since it maps directly to an Xinput, but I just cant get anywhere near risking money on this without even properly testing.
5 ★I am very much impressed by the haptic feedback and high quality button layout. It really made my day to play cricket 19. I saw the rating is 3.5 felt too low for this kind of work. One ad pop up the time you open a gamepad is reasonable. Ability to save Multiple droid PC servers is very handy. Overall thrilled to use. Thank you very much
