Button Mapper makes it easy to remap custom actions on your volume buttons and other hardware buttons. Remap buttons to launch any app, shortcut, or custom action with a single, double, or long press.
Button Mapper can remap most physical or capacitive keys and buttons, such as volume buttons, some assistance buttons, and capacitive home, back, and recent apps keys. Button Mapper can also remap buttons on many gamepads, remotes, and other peripherals.
Root is not required for most actions, but some require an adb command from a connected PC if it is not rooted. Button Mapper does not work when the screen is off unless your device is rooted or you run an adb command.

This app uses accessibility services. Accessibility is used to detect when physical or capacitive buttons are pressed on your device so that they can be remapped into custom actions to meet your needs. It is not used to see what you are typing. Button Mapper does not collect or share any of your personal information:
This app uses the device administrator permission. (BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN)
This permission is used to lock the screen if the “Turn off screen” action is chosen. If you want to remove this permission, open Button Mapper, click on the menu (three dots in the upper right corner) and select “Uninstall”
