Attaky Controller
Version: 1.1.0 | Published by Attaky
Your Core, reborn as a universal Bluetooth trackpad, keyboard and controller.
Attaky Controller is a from-scratch firmware that turns the Attaky Core into a complete
wireless control center. It pairs like any ordinary Bluetooth accessory and shows up as a
standard keyboard, mouse and game controller — so it works with your computer, phone,
tablet, smart TV or set-top box right away, with nothing to install on the host.
Highlights
- Touchscreen trackpad — the Core's screen becomes a precision pointer: move, tap, double-tap and scroll.
- Keyboard + mouse + gamepad in one — a single composite Bluetooth HID connection.
- iPhone-compatible mode — works on iOS, where Bluetooth game controllers normally don't.
- Up to 10 devices — pair, name, switch, reconnect and re-pair, all from the device.
- Air-mouse — point at the screen by tilting the device.
- Battery-saving standby — dims and sleeps when idle (keeping the connection), with a deep "off" state to wake from.
- Safer reconnect — won't send input to a device until it's confirmed on reconnect.
- Optional Keyboard & Gamepad modules — full typing and real controller input.
- No companion app — everything is configured on the device itself.
A trackpad in your hand
The Core's capacitive touchscreen becomes a precision trackpad. Glide to move the pointer,
tap and double-tap to click, and scroll smoothly. Make it yours from the on-screen
settings — pointer sensitivity, scroll speed, natural (inverted) scrolling, pointer
acceleration and double-tap behaviour.
More ways to point and type
The Core's D-pad sends arrow keys with SELECT as Enter — perfect for menus, slideshows and
media apps. Turn on the air-mouse to move the cursor by tilting the device in the air, and
pull up the on-screen symbol layer for punctuation and shortcuts a tap away.
Built for many devices
Pair up to 10 devices and give each its own Bluetooth name. The on-screen device list lets
you switch the active device, reconnect a sleeping one, or re-pair a device that forgot its
bond — in a tap, and without disturbing the others.
Works everywhere
A global iPhone-compatible mode reshapes the controller so iOS accepts it as a keyboard and
mouse — no more "iPhone won't take a Bluetooth gamepad." Switch to Full-gamepad mode for a
complete game controller on Android, Mac and PC. Keyboard and mouse work across every
platform.
Longer battery, safer reconnect
The controller now saves power on its own: it dims and light-sleeps when idle while keeping
the Bluetooth link alive, so it wakes the instant you touch it — and after a set time it can
drop into a deep "off" state that powers the radio down, waking on a button press. Set the
sleep timeout on the Display settings page. On reconnect, the controller holds its input
until the device it's reconnecting to is confirmed, so a stray or unknown device can't
receive your keystrokes or clicks.
Grows with your modules
Snap on the optional Keyboard module for full physical typing plus the on-screen symbol
layer, or the Gamepad module for real game-controller buttons and sticks — all carried over
the same single Bluetooth connection.
On-device, by design
A clean status screen shows the connected device and live battery level. Brightness adapts
to the room with the built-in ambient-light sensor, or set it manually. Sensitivity,
modules, device management, sleep timeout and Bluetooth mode are all configured right on the
device — no companion app, no account.
Compatibility
Works as a standard Bluetooth Low Energy keyboard, mouse and game controller with iOS,
Android, macOS, Windows, Linux and most smart-TV / set-top-box platforms. Requires the
Attaky Core; the Keyboard and Gamepad modules are optional.
Release Notes
Adds automatic power management and a safer reconnect to Attaky Controller — the wireless Bluetooth control center (keyboard, mouse and game controller in one) for the Attaky Core.
What's new since 1.0.0
- Battery-saving standby — the controller now light-sleeps when idle (the screen dims) while keeping the Bluetooth connection alive, so it wakes instantly when you touch it.
- Deep "off" state — after a set time it can power the radio down into a deep-sleep "off" state to save battery, waking on a button press; a "Sleeping…" cue appears first and a touch cancels it.
- Adjustable sleep timeout — choose how long before it dims and sleeps, on the Display settings page.
- Safer reconnect — on reconnect, the controller withholds keyboard/mouse/controller input until the device it is reconnecting to is confirmed, so a stray or unknown device can't receive your input.
- Smoother pointer — refined touchpad pointer motion.
- Accurate battery level — the reported Bluetooth battery level is now correct (no false low-battery warnings).
Everything from 1.0.0 (touchpad, air-mouse, up to 10 devices, iPhone-compatible mode, optional Keyboard/Gamepad modules, auto-brightness) is unchanged.
