GameGlass is a third party app for secondary touch screens, with configurable multifunctional displays for tablets and phones.

The app allows to display additional touch-screen controls for games, such as pressing a button to deploy the landing gear directly on the player mobile phone, outside of the games own native UI.

History

in December 2018, a Reddit user posted on the Star Citizen subreddit about his idea and work to create a tablet multi functional display called SCPADD. The idea gained traction, other people joined the project, leading to a team, and growing ambitions.

As the project evolved to support many other games such a Elite Dangerous, the SCPADD name, SC being in reference to Star Citizen, wasn't fitting anymore, leading to the change of the project name and to becoming GameGlass.
