Wired-feeling response
Press a button and it lands in your game right now. Over normal home Wi-Fi, Dish feels just as fast as a controller plugged in with a cable, with no lag to fight even in fast games.
Everything a modern controller does, sent over Wi-Fi and feeling like a wire.
Press a button and it lands in your game right now. Over normal home Wi-Fi, Dish feels just as fast as a controller plugged in with a cable, with no lag to fight even in fast games.
Your inputs are locked to your two devices. Nobody else on the Wi-Fi can read them or sneak inputs into your game, so it's safe even on a coffee-shop, hotel, or dorm network.
Open Dish and your gaming PC shows up by name, usually in under a second. No IP addresses, no network settings to fiddle with.
If your Wi-Fi hiccups, Dish quietly reconnects on its own. No PIN, no menus. As far as your game is concerned, the controller never left.
Pick what each controller looks like to your games: an Xbox pad that works everywhere, a DualShock 4 or DualSense with touchpad, motion, lightbar, and battery, or a Switch Pro. Set it per player.
Tilt to aim and steer with gyro, the same fine-targeting trick you get on a DualSense or Switch Pro. No motion pad? Your phone's own tilt works too.
Two-finger swipes, taps, and the touchpad click all reach your game. Or turn the touchpad into a mouse for menu-heavy games, switchable on the fly.
When a game changes the lightbar to mirror what's happening, like your health or an alert, that color glows on the controller in your hand. Astro's Playroom, GTA V, Returnal, and more.
Plug a DualSense, DualShock 4, or Switch Pro into the client over USB and the game drives it: lightbar color, player lights, the mute lamp, and DualSense adaptive triggers.
When the game shakes, you feel it. On a phone the buzz comes through the phone itself, so your hand feels every hit either way.
Switch the microphone on and party chat on the PC hears you through the pad, the way it would through a DualSense. Whatever the game plays through the pad's speaker comes out of your phone. Mute means muted: nothing leaves your device.
See your controller's battery level and whether it's charging, so a dead pad never surprises you mid-session.
A configurable touch layout with Xbox and PlayStation styles. Move, resize, and remap the buttons to fit your thumbs, slide along a trigger for a partial pull, and count on an eight-way d-pad that won't fight you on diagonals.
Got a pad plugged into one PC and want to play on another? Dish for Windows and Dish for Linux send it across the network, with the same pairing and the same feel.
Dish can also act as a regular Bluetooth gamepad, so you can pair your phone straight to a PC, console, or TV box even when there's no Satellite around.
Pair Dish with a Moonlight host and it shows up there as a controller, no Satellite needed. Buttons, sticks, motion, touchpad, rumble, and battery all make the trip.
Satellite shows a small dashboard with your connected controllers and how things are running, so you can see at a glance that everything's healthy.
Satellite updates from inside the app: check, download, install. No hunting around for new versions.
Stream video to your TV with Moonlight and hold your phone as the controller, through Satellite or straight into the Sunshine host. Or skip streaming entirely and use Dish as a wireless gamepad on the same monitor.
Your games see a standard Xbox or PlayStation controller, so practically everything just works. Pick Xbox for universal support, or PlayStation when you want the touchpad, motion, and lightbar.
Connect up to 16 controllers to one PC, each its own player. One person dropping out never drags the others down.
Your inputs get priority on the network, so they stay snappy even when the Wi-Fi is busy with downloads and streaming in the background.
Every Dish client and the Satellite dashboard come in English, Spanish, German, French, Brazilian Portuguese, and Bosnian.
No ads, no analytics, no account. Nothing about how or what you play is collected. The one thing an app ever sends is a crash report, with an off switch in Settings, and because it's open source you can verify that yourself.
Free, open source, and ten minutes from download to first frag.
