Private by default

Your inputs stay between your phone and your PC. Nothing leaks onto the network, even on shared Wi-Fi, and nobody else can grab your controller.

How it stays private →

Every input surface

Sticks, triggers, gyro aim, touchpad, lightbar, rumble, battery. Everything a modern controller does, all the way to your game.

All the features →

Steady as a cable

It finds your PC on its own and quietly reconnects if your Wi-Fi hiccups. The pad just stays connected, with no fuss.

Why it stays connected →

  1. 1

    Install Dish on your Android phone

    Free on Google Play or as a signed APK on GitHub Releases.

    Install Satellite on your gaming PC

    One-click installer. Runs quietly from your system tray.

  3. 3

    Pair with a 4-digit PIN

  4. 4

    Press a button. Your game responds.

    Your phone becomes a controller your games recognize. Rumble, motion, touchpad, and lightbar all come back to your hand. It feels wired.

Couch gaming from another room

PC in the office, TV in the living room. Pair Dish over Wi-Fi and never run an HDMI cable through the wall again.

Stream video to your TV with Moonlight, hold your phone as the wireless gamepad. Each tool does the thing it's best at.

Couch co-op with friends

Up to 16 controllers on one PC. Four phones, four controllers, no boxes of Bluetooth gamepads to charge.
