WHY MAVERIX
What makes Maverix special.
Six things we put the most care into. Tap one to jump to it.
CONTROLLER WORLD
A real controller, on your phone.
Windows sees an Xbox 360-style controller. Pick a ready-made layout, or make your own in the desktop Layout Studio.
Touch it: Drag the glass stick or press the 4 glass dots
Gamepad API Ready
Drag stick or use Arrow keys
Press dots or keys 1–4
Stick: (0.00, 0.00) · Pulse idle
Three slots, one screen: tap a slot, or swipe the screen, to switch layouts
Illustration
Slot 1 · Classic Controller: First-time users and most controller games.
Each slot can hold any layout you choose. These three are examples drawn from the app's ready-made layouts.
Tested with real games
Held buttons release themselves
Touch feedback you can tune
MOUSE WORLD
Point, scroll and click.
Use the trackpad surface, or tilt your phone to aim (air mouse is in testing). Pull the scroll handle and hold: the harder you pull, the faster it goes (pull-and-hold scroll is in testing).
Glide across the trackpad or pull & hold the right scroll handle
Air mouse (in testing)

REMOTE MODE · PRESENTING
Run your talk from your pocket.
Remote mode turns your phone into a presentation clicker: next and previous slide, a talk timer, a slide counter, a pocket lock, and a virtual laser pointer (in testing).
Try the clicker: it drives the little slide

ENGINEERING CARE
Small things, done carefully.
Built for real home Wi-Fi and real phones—so held buttons don't get stuck and brief Android radio pauses don't stay a mystery.
Illustration
Wi-Fi hiccups, explained.
Some phones pause Wi-Fi for a moment while Android scans for Bluetooth devices. Maverix notices, and shows you the setting.
Brief pause noticed → Tap "Fix Bluetooth Scan" above

Two lights, not one.
Maverix shows the phone-to-PC link and the PC-to-game side separately, so you can see which needs attention.

COMPLETE THE LOOP
Download Maverix for Windows

Windows PC Requirements
Windows 11 (64-bit) tested; Windows 10 not yet tested.
Android Phone Status
Built for Android 7.0 or newer; tested on Android 12 and 13. Android app: coming to Google Play.
What the Windows installer changes on your PC (full disclosure)
1. Installs the Maverix PC app in a protected program folder.
2. Sets up the controller helper task that runs with administrator rights so controller support starts automatically at sign-in.
3. Installs the virtual-controller user-mode driver (HIDMaestro) and a locally trusted certificate for it.
4. Adds Windows Firewall rules so your phone can reach the PC app over your local network.
5. Uninstalling removes the app, helper task, virtual controller driver, and firewall rules.
HONEST ANSWERS
Questions, answered plainly.
Every claim on this page is checked against what we have built and tested. No hype, no invented numbers.
What data leaves my PC or phone?
None of your gameplay or input leaves your network. Input travels straight from your phone to your PC over your own Wi-Fi, encrypted with XChaCha20-Poly1305. This website uses no analytics, no cookies, and no third-party scripts. The only thing it saves in your browser is your best score in the 3D Road Racer mini-game, and that stays on your device.
Does it stream my game screen to my phone?
No. The game stays on your PC monitor; your phone sends the controller, mouse, and keyboard inputs.
Which games work with Maverix?
Windows sees an Xbox 360-style controller (XInput), and Maverix has been tested with real games. Older DirectInput-only games that do not support XInput controllers are not yet tested.
How fast is it?
We have not published latency numbers because we only publish what we have measured end-to-end with high-speed hardware. Input goes straight from your phone to your PC over your own network, with no cloud server in between.
Do I need an account or the internet?
No account is ever needed. You only need the internet to download the app; playing happens entirely over your own local network.
Can two phones control one PC, or what if my PC's IP changes?
Maverix supports one phone per PC for now. Once paired, your phone remembers your PC and reconnects automatically; if your PC's local address changes, you may need to scan the QR code once more.
Does it work on iPhone or Mac?
No—Maverix is currently built for Android phones (Android 7.0+, tested on Android 12 and 13) and Windows PCs (Windows 11 64-bit tested; Windows 10 not yet tested).
Is Maverix free?
Pricing has not been announced while Maverix is in testing.
