Button Mapper: Unleash the Power of Your Hardware Buttons
Tired of your hardware buttons' limited functionality? Button Mapper empowers you to remap volume buttons and other hardware keys to launch apps, shortcuts, or execute custom actions. Control your device with unprecedented ease using single, double, or long presses.
This app supports a wide array of physical and capacitive buttons, including volume buttons, assist buttons, and capacitive home, back, and recent apps keys. Its compatibility extends to gamepads, remotes, and various peripheral devices. While root access isn't always required, some advanced functions necessitate an ADB command from a connected PC or root access for off-screen operation.
What can you do with Button Mapper?
The possibilities are extensive. Imagine:
- Launching your favorite app with a double tap.
- Toggling your flashlight with a long press.
- Remapping your TV remote.
- Taking a photo with a long press of a volume button.
- Swapping your back and recent apps keys (capacitive buttons only).
- Using volume buttons to adjust screen brightness.
- Customizing intents, scripts, or commands.
- And much more!

Supported Actions & Buttons:
Button Mapper offers a vast array of mappable actions, including launching apps, broadcasting intents, running scripts (PRO), controlling media playback, managing quick settings, and much more. It supports a wide range of buttons, from standard home, back, and volume buttons to camera buttons, headset buttons, and custom buttons on various devices.
Customization & Troubleshooting:
Fine-tune your experience by adjusting long press and double tap durations, adding delays for improved double-tap responsiveness, and disabling Button Mapper for specific apps.
Troubleshooting tips include ensuring the accessibility service is enabled and allowed to run in the background. Remember, Button Mapper doesn't work with onscreen buttons or the power button. The app's options depend on your device's available buttons.
Privacy & Permissions:
Button Mapper utilizes accessibility services to detect button presses for remapping. It does not monitor your typing or collect personal information. The Device Administrator permission (BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN) is used only for the "Turn screen off" action and can be uninstalled if desired.
