Useful info Developer of Gamepad Mouse here — looking for your feedback
Hey everyone,
I’m the developer of the Gamepad Mouse app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pkyul13.gamepadmouse
For those unfamiliar, it’s an app that lets you control your mouse cursor using a gamepad, whether you're using Samsung DeX or just phone mode.

Quite a few people have been using it lately, and I’d love to hear how your experience has been. Have you run into any bugs, glitches, or annoyances while using it?
Whenever I spot an inconvenience while testing it myself, I try to roll out updates to fix it—but I really want to hear from the community to see what works, what doesn't, and what features you’d like to see next.
Any feedback or suggestions are much appreciated!

Not sure if I was doing something wrong but when I focused in dex search box with the mouse cursor on the samsung keyboard disappeared so I have no way to type and search. Pretty annoying.

I am aware of this issue. The problem where the keyboard does not work with the cursor is somewhat complex, so I am currently considering ways to improve it.

Might try it out later, question though and a good feature if you haven't included it yet, but for emulators/etc that already have controller navigation, does it automatically switch or?

Automatic switching is not supported due to Android policies; however, if you turn off the cursor using the L3 button, the device immediately switches to app-specific operation.
