Key Mapper
- Remap fingerprint gestures! #378
Android 8.0+ and only on devices which support them. Even devices with the setting to swipe down for notifications might not support this! The dev can't do anything about this.
- Widget/shortcut to launch actions. #459
- Setting to show the first 5 digits of input devices so devices with the same name can be differentiated in Key Mapper lists. #470
- Show a warning at the top of the homescreen if the user hasn't disabled battery optimisation for Key Mapp
* Fingerprint gestures on supported devices.
* Volume buttons.
* Navigation buttons.
* Bluetooth/wired keyboards.
* Buttons on other connected devices should also work.
* Nintendo Switch JoyCons.
* Chubby Buttons 2.
ONLY HARDWARE buttons can be remapped.
There is NO GUARANTEE any of these buttons will work and this app is NOT designed to control games. Your device's OEM/vendor can prevent them from being remapped.
You can combine multiple keys from a specific device or any device to form a "trigger". Each trigger can have multiple actions. The keys can be set to be pressed at the same time or one after another in a sequence. Keys can be remapped when they are short pressed, long pressed or double pressed. A keymap can have a set of "constraints" so it only has an effect in certain situations.
What can’t be remapped?
* Pixel Active Edge
* OnePlus Alert Slider
* Power button
* Bixby button
* Mouse buttons
* Dpad, thumb sticks or triggers on game controllers
Your key maps don't work if the screen is OFF. This is a limitation in Android. There is nothing the dev can do.

A Key Mapper keyboard needs to be selected for these to work:
** It is recommended to install the Key Mapper GUI Keyboard app because this is a proper keyboard unlike the one built-in to Key Mapper **
* Input a specific keycode
* Input a key
* Input a Key Event
* Insert a block of text
What other things can the app do?
* Option to show a persistent notification which can pause/resume your keymaps.
* Automatically change the keyboard to the Key Mapper one and/or show the keyboard picker when a chosen Bluetooth device is connected and switch back to the old one when it is disconnected.
* Quick settings to pause/resume keymaps and toggle the Key Mapper keyboard.
* Create home screen widget to perform the actions mentioned above.
Permissions
You don't have to grant all the permissions for the app to work. The app will tell you if a permission needs to be granted for a feature to work.
* Accessibility Service: Basic requirement for remapping to work. It is needed so the app can listen to and block keyevents.
* Device Admin: To turn the screen off when using the action to turn off the screen.
* Modify System Settings: To change the brightness and rotation settings.
* Camera: To control the flashlight.
On some devices, enabling the accessibility service will disable "enhanced data encryption".
