Vibepad

Your phone is already on your desk. Make it the free, customizable control deck for your computer. Vibepad turns your Android phone into a Bluetooth macro pad for your computer. Create one-tap buttons for shortcuts, reusable text, multi-step actions, and everyday desktop controls without buying dedicated macro hardware or adding another device to your desk. A free control deck you already own Vibepad is free to use, with no subscriptions or in-app purchases. Use the touchscreen you already own instead of buying another programmable button deck. Your controls, one tap away Build layouts for editing, coding, meetings, presentations, media, or any repetitive computer task. Vibepad sends the keyboard shortcuts and text you configure to your computer. Customize every button - Send keyboard shortcuts and hotkeys - Type reusable text snippets - Build multi-step sequences with shortcuts, text, and delays - Switch layouts automatically with the active desktop app - Arrange buttons with drag-and-drop editing - Choose flexible button sizes, shapes, colors, and 1,000+ icons - Create portrait and landscape configurations A layout for every workflow Create multiple control sets and let Vibepad switch them automatically as you move between desktop apps. Duplicate configurations, import and export them as JSON, or use the web Pad Builder when you want more room to design. Bluetooth remote control, without Wi-Fi Vibepad uses Bluetooth Low Energy to communicate with your computer. Core controls do not need Wi-Fi or a cloud account after setup. Use Vibepad at your desk or anywhere within Bluetooth range. Setup takes three steps: 1. Install Vibepad on your Android phone. 2. Install the free Vibepad Link companion on your computer. 3. Pair over Bluetooth and start controlling your computer. The lightweight desktop companion is required and runs in the background. Optional voice input Add a Microphone button to use your phone as a wireless microphone for your computer's dictation app. Audio travels over Bluetooth to the desktop companion, which provides the Vibepad Mic input, and your dictation app turns speech into text. No API key is needed, and Vibepad does not save or upload the audio. Requires Vibepad Link 0.3.0 or later for Mac and the Vibepad Mic driver installed from the helper. Bluetooth microphone is not yet supported on Windows. Tap to start and stop, or hold to talk; optionally trigger your dictation app’s shortcut. Keep Vibepad open while speaking. Your dictation app’s settings determine whether transcription runs locally or in the cloud. Prefer to transcribe on your phone? A Speech-to-Text button turns speech into text and sends it to your computer. It requires your own OpenAI API key and an internet connection. Your key is stored only on your device. Use your phone as a shortcut keypad, macro keyboard, wireless remote, and one-tap control deck built around your workflow.
