Controller
A standard gamepad for any game that uses the Gamepad API, cloud gaming included. Rumble reaches your phone.
Browser extension · Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, Arc
Your phone controls any website.
It's a gamepad, a 3D mouse or keys. With ob.Pal Desktop, it runs your whole PC. No app on the phone.
Version 1.6.1 · free, MIT licensed · Chrome Web Store listing on its way
3D
Drag to rotate, two fingers to pan, pinch to zoom, on any 3D viewer in the page.
Keys
The left stick is WASD, the D-pad the arrow keys, the buttons Space, Enter and more, and the right stick the mouse.
PC
Mouse, keyboard and typing for your whole PC or only the programs you allow, through ob.Pal Desktop on Windows; macOS is coming soon. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace stops everything.
Unzip
Unzip obpal-link.zip into a folder you'll keep.
Load it
Open chrome://extensions, turn on Developer mode, click Load unpacked and pick that folder.
Pair
On the page you want to control, click the ob.Pal Link icon. Scan the code with your phone, then turn on This tab.
PC control on Windows
Download ob.Pal Desktop, unzip it into a folder you'll keep and double-click install.cmd. In the extension, pick PC, allow your phone when the PC asks (once per phone), and click Control the whole PC: your phone becomes this computer's mouse and keyboard. Tap to click, hold to right-click, two fingers to scroll, and type with your phone's own keyboard into the field that has the focus (ob.Pal Desktop 0.3 or later). Or allow one program at a time. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace stops everything at once.
Updating? Switch the extension away from PC and close its options page if it's open, then unzip the new version over the old folder. Removing it? Double-click uninstall.cmd: it takes the helper, its settings and its folder, with the browser still open.
Works without internet
A phone you've paired once connects straight over your Wi-Fi when the internet is down: the popup shows a direct code, and the controller opens from your phone's cache.
Private by design
No accounts and no analytics. Input goes from your phone to your computer over an encrypted connection, and the extension only acts in the tab you switch on, or the programs you allow. Privacy policy
