Phone gamepad handler

Gamepad trigger

— a special kind of gamepads (see above), designed for use with mobile devices (primarily smartphones) and having the simplest possible design. Such controllers are not even connected to the gaming gadget - they interact with it in a purely mechanical format, by interacting with the touch screen. To do this, an overhead gamepad usually provides two triggers, each of which is connected to a special moving part above the smartphone screen; when the trigger is pressed, the corresponding part is lowered to the screen, simulating the touch of a finger. This allows the player to use 4 independent touch points at once - two under the thumbs, two under the mechanical "rocker" powered by triggers. And some models are completely holders for smartphones that do not even have mechanics. And even in more advanced solutions, any electronic filling is either completely absent or performs auxiliary functions: for example, there are overhead gamepads with built-in cooling fans and / or with a power bank mode for recharging a smartphone.
Note that such manipulators can only be used in games that are either originally designed for such control (a typical example is PUBG Mobile), or allow you to change the location of controls on the screen and place individual on-screen buttons under the mechanical “fingers” of the gamepad.
