With reWASD Mobile, you do not need to open the PC app if you want to check the config, mappings, settings or descriptions. Just find the computer with reWASD installed and ensure that both devices are connected to the same local network.

This way you won’t need to Alt+Tab from the game to check the mappings you have in your config, and also you could Apply a config easily with a few taps on your mobile device. In addition, reWASD Mobile gets the notifications from its elder brother on PC while it is opened, so you will be informed if the battery is low or if you switched to another Slot or Shift. Why should I use it? reWASD Mobile is an easy way to work with your configs and devices without the necessity to open the app itself on a PC. Right now, you can check everything you have in your config, keep it open to check the mappings or descriptions, get notifications about what happens with reWASD on your PC and apply a config to the initialized device.
