## What it is
A touch-optimized Windows GUI application that enhances handheld gaming PCs with motion (gyro) controls, virtual controller emulation, and quick-settings overlays. It manages per-game profiles, TDP and performance tuning, and gamepad-to-keyboard/mouse remapping.

## Use cases
- add gyro motion controls to any Windows game
- emulate an Xbox 360 or DualShock 4 controller on a handheld PC
- adjust TDP, GPU, refresh rate and brightness from an overlay while gaming
- remap gamepad inputs to mouse and keyboard
- auto-apply settings per game with profile detection
- use DS4 motion and touchpad with PS Remote Play

## When to choose
- you own a Windows handheld gaming PC (e.g., ROG Ally, Legion Go) and want gyro aiming
- you need virtual controller emulation or per-game profiles
- you want a quick overlay for TDP, fan, and display settings

## When to avoid
- you are on Linux or macOS
- you only need simple controller remapping without motion controls
- you prefer lightweight CLI tools over a full GUI

## Facets
