I got a new controller for my phone (Flydigi Wee 2) in order to play games on the go psvita/switch style.

It works great on emulators and through their app testing button presses occur as they should, however with DinkHD that doesn't seem to be the case. Through testing this is what I've found

Flydigi Wee 2-in-1 controller 
(Buttons are xbox layout)

Left joystick - working as intended
Dpad - working as intended 
LB - Map (button6)
RB - Turbo Mode
LT - Nothing
RT - Nothing
Start - DinkHD menu... and keyboard..?
Sel - Inventory
X - Magic
A - Brings up keyboard
B - DinkHD Menu
Y - Inventory.. Then controls become wonky missing button presses for a bit


The z and c buttons as well as right joystick do nothing as I would expect.

As it stands DinkHD isn't playable with this controller by default due to not being able to attack or talk/examine without stretching for touch controls.

Bring in the Flydigi Gamepad Assistant app. It lets you emulate tapping the screen in certain places, swipes, and touch joysticks. This works.. but not good enough. Once you make a profile and map your touch controls to buttons, the rest of the buttons won't do anything. You cannot remap button presses alongside this. Also the button placement isn't visually represented correctly so it's a pain to fine-tune.

I've looked into a couple apps for remapping, some are pay and others require a root (no thanks)

I had hopes for playing DMODs like this but for now it's not going to work.
