Terms & Conditions

Gamepad: Bluetooth Controller

Effective date:

1. About these terms

These Terms of Service apply to your use of Gamepad: Bluetooth Controller (Gamepad), its in-app purchases, and the services that support those purchases. In these terms, “we” means Pankaj Negi, the developer identified in the Gamepad listing on Google Play. By using Gamepad, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, you can stop using and uninstall the app.

2. What Gamepad does

Gamepad turns a compatible Android phone into a Bluetooth HID game controller. It offers Classic and Dual-Stick controller layouts, controller profiles, and options to customize controls and their appearance. In games that support multiple Bluetooth controllers, each player can use a separate compatible phone running Gamepad as an independent controller. The receiving device and game must support that setup. Gamepad does not include third-party games.

3. Device and game compatibility

You need a compatible phone running Android 9 or later that supports Bluetooth HID device mode and a receiving device that can pair with and use a Bluetooth game controller. Compatible receivers can include Android TV and Google TV devices. Compatibility depends on the phone, Android version and system software, receiving device, and game. Support varies by model and game, even when Bluetooth pairing succeeds. Try the free controller with your intended device and game before buying optional features.

4. Bluetooth and permissions

Turn on Bluetooth and grant the permissions needed for the connection actions you choose. On Android 12 and later, Android uses Nearby devices permissions for these actions. Older Android versions may require location permission for Bluetooth discovery. Android manages Bluetooth pairing and link security. Denying or revoking a required permission may prevent discovery, pairing, or connection. Pair only with devices you own or have permission to control.

5. Free features and optional purchases

The controller layouts, basic customization, and a limited number of custom controller profiles are available for free. Gamepad offers free themes and optional one-time purchases, including paid theme editions, Theme Studio where available, and the Complete App bundle. Complete App includes the highest available editions of current premium themes, future premium themes as they are released in the Gamepad catalog, Theme Studio where available, and unlimited controller profiles. The in-app Store describes what each offer includes before you buy.

6. Google Play Billing and verification

Google Play Billing processes purchases and shows the price and applicable payment terms before you confirm. Google handles your payment details. Gamepad verifies purchases with Google Play through its backend before granting paid access. A purchase that is still pending does not unlock paid content. Downloads and purchase verification or restoration may require internet access, the Google Play account used for the purchase, and a compatible, authorized installation. Device activation limits may apply to paid access.

7. License for purchased themes

Buying a theme or receiving it through Complete App gives you a limited license to use the included digital content for personal use in Gamepad. Copyright and other ownership rights remain with the relevant rights holders. Except as permitted by law or with the rights holder’s permission, you may not extract, sell, distribute, or repackage commercial theme assets, whether separately or as part of another theme or product.

8. Theme Studio and your customizations

With eligible Theme Studio access, you can import a background image, adjust the controller’s appearance using available options, and save and apply your custom theme. Projects and imported images are stored on your device. You retain the rights you already hold in your own material. Use only images you own or have permission to use for this purpose. Built-in artwork and presets remain subject to their existing ownership and license terms.

9. Refunds, cancellations, and consumer rights

Refund and cancellation eligibility depends on applicable law and Google Play’s policies for your location and purchase. See Google Play’s refund policies for how to request a refund. You can also contact us for help with a purchase, including content that is faulty, unavailable, or different from what was described. A refund or reversal may remove access tied to that purchase. These terms preserve any mandatory rights to cancel or withdraw, obtain a refund or other remedy, or rely on a statutory guarantee.

10. Acceptable use

Use Gamepad lawfully and with permission to control the receiving device. Do not interfere with devices or services, use stolen payment details, falsify purchase or verification records, bypass paid access controls, or use the app to infringe someone else’s rights. Follow the rules of any game or service you use with Gamepad.

11. Intellectual property

Gamepad’s software, branding, and included artwork are owned by the developer or its licensors. You may use the app and its content as allowed by these terms and applicable law. The developer and its licensors retain all other rights.

12. Third-party games, services, and trademarks

Third-party games, devices, stores, and services may have their own terms and policies. Android, Android TV, Google TV, Google Play, Bluetooth, and other third-party names or marks belong to their respective owners. References to those products describe compatibility or the services used and do not imply endorsement.

13. Availability, updates, and changes to the app

We may update the app, its theme catalog, or supporting services for security, maintenance, compatibility, or product improvements. Availability may also depend on Google Play, your device or software version, and the services needed to verify and deliver paid content. We do not promise uninterrupted availability or indefinite support. If a change affects paid access, we will honor our obligations under applicable law and give notice where required.

14. Disclaimers and liability

Bluetooth connections may be interrupted, and device or game updates may affect compatibility. To the extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for losses that were not reasonably foreseeable when these terms applied or that were caused solely by a third-party game, device, or service outside our control. These terms do not exclude or limit liability or warranties where the law does not allow it, including any mandatory remedies for defective or misdescribed digital content.

15. Ending use and restricting access

You can stop using Gamepad and uninstall it at any time. Where allowed by law, we may restrict the affected paid access if Google Play refunds or revokes a purchase, or restrict access as reasonably necessary to address fraud, a serious breach of these terms, or a legal requirement. Contact us if you believe a restriction was applied in error. Any consumer remedies that apply remain available.

16. Changes to these terms

We will publish revised terms on this page with an updated effective date. We will give notice of material changes and ask for your agreement when required by law. Changes apply going forward and do not take away rights you already have under applicable law.

17. Privacy

The Privacy Policy explains how Gamepad handles Bluetooth permissions and device information, purchase verification, and supporting services.
