| Spec score · Game Controller Mapper Software | 7.9 (#11) | 7.3 (#20) |
| Purpose | ControllerKeys turns game controllers or an Apple TV Siri Remote into keyboard and mouse input for a Mac. | Joystick Mapper configures joysticks or gamepads to simulate keyboard keys, mouse movement, clicks, and scrolling for apps or games without built-in controller support. |
| Support | The page links to a Discord community and issue reporting and lists email support at [email protected]. | The contact page directs general questions and troubleshooting to the forums or email and says replies may take a few days because the developer works alone. |
