Description

Control your favorite PC/Mac software with endless customization possibilities. Create buttons to execute macros, hold keyboard/mouse input, open programs, and more.

ActionPad allows you to create your own custom control panels to remote control applications on your computer.

This app requires the ActionPad Server desktop software to be installed on your computer for full functionality. For more information on this, visit http://actionpad.co/go. Compatible with macOS and Windows.

Panels can contain buttons and other objects, which can be used to simulate keyboard and mouse input, as well as open files and URLs. With grid and dynamic panel types, buttons can be arranged into a grid with customizable rows and columns, or positioned and sized anywhere you would like on your panel for infinite customization possibilities. Customize the appearance of buttons and other panel objects to give them a distinct look. Get ready to make your keyboard and mouse jealous.

With ActionPad, you may implement buttons on your panel that:
-Execute keystrokes, such as Command C or Ctrl V.
-Move your mouse pointer or hold keys as you hold down the button.
-Launch applications and open files on your computer.
-Open websites in your default browser and interact with them.
-Control media and volume on your computer.
-Do all of these things with one press!

You can have buttons send continuous keyboard and mouse input as you hold them down, or you can combine multiple actions to create simple or complex macros that will run with just one tap of the button!

All of this, along with visual elements such as images, text, and containers can all be combined to create unique control panels, each of which with it's own purpose.

Don't feel like creating your own panel, or want to use some pre-created panels for some of your favorite desktop apps? ActionPad features the Community Panels Hub, which allows users to upload and share panels they create. It's very easy to share panels and build upon everyone's creations. Along with sharing through the Community Panels Hub, you can also export your panel and send it via E-mail, AirDrop, or a variety of other mediums. No account needed to download user-made panels, only required if you wish to upload to share with other users.

Whether it be a panel used to quickly access the most commonly used tools in Photoshop, extra shortcuts for DAW power users, controls for your cockpit in a space simulation game, or a remote control for your streaming setup, there is no limit to what you can create and control with ActionPad.

Stuff streamdecks

For £1.79 this is great. In one hour I’ve created an app that I can control a whole host of my stream setup with. Brilliant especially when you consider how expensive the alternatives are - fully appreciate a deck can do more however, my stream is mostly voice controlled so this is an excellent accompaniment

Liked it a lot

Excellent for flight simulator shortcuts. Clean and uncluttered.
An unusual and potentially useful feature is that you can control the position of the mouse cursor on the screen.
Excellent service from the developer when I had a problem in setting up an additional device running an older version of iOS.
Had a reply within an hour.

One of the best

If you want your favourite software shortcuts (key commands ) right in front of you in a nice tidy row on the iPad screen then download this app. It starts with you needing to set up and assign your most used tools to a key, for this you must look at your softwares list of key commands and arrange them in action pad. it works beautifully
