About

Golf Sim Control

Turn your iPhone or iPad into a wireless remote for your golf simulator PC. Golf Sim Control connects to the Golf Sim Control companion app on your Windows PC (£14.99) over your local Wi‑Fi network, so you can control your simulator software from anywhere in your hitting bay — no keyboard or mouse required. Simple layouts tailored for GSPro, E6 Connect, Awesome Golf, FSX Play, Virtual Golf and with more to come. SHORTCUT BUTTONS Every simulator comes with a ready-to-use button layout covering the shortcuts you reach for most: aim point, heat map, flyovers, mulligans, camera views, hole navigation, and more. MOUSE CLICKS Setup custom mouse clicks for additional control. For example FSX Play doesn't have a club up/down keyboard shortcut, but a custom mouse click can save you a trip or two to your PC. TRACKPAD Move the mouse and scroll on your simulator PC directly from your device with a responsive trackpad, or use the joystick control for camera panning and navigation — perfect for adjusting the view without walking back to the PC. FAST, SECURE PAIRING Golf Sim Control finds your PC automatically on your home or bay network and connects in seconds. A 4-digit passcode from the desktop app keeps your simulator PC secure, and the app reconnects automatically if your connection drops. BUILT FOR THE BAY Optimized layouts for both iPhone and iPad, in portrait and landscape, so the app fits neatly on a wall mount, a tripod stand, or in your pocket between shots. Requires the Golf Sim Control desktop app running on the Windows PC connected to your simulator (available separately — see support link). What's New in This Version (release notes template) Initial release of Golf Sim Control: Ready-made shortcut layouts for GSPro, E6 Connect, TGC, Awesome Golf, and FSX Play Trackpad and joystick controls Automatic PC discovery with secure passcode pairing
