A new version has just been released.

  • v0.2.0
    • Added keyboard and volume controls.
    • Added remembering selected toggles (multiplier, lock, keyboard).
    • Switched server to the current websockets.server API to drop deprecation warnings.

If you’re using a previous version, remember to update not only your card but also your server.

LG webOS Magic Cursor

In the meantime, I’ve started working on Magic Cursor support for LG TVs. I already have movement, clicking, and two-finger scrolling working. Both the TV and my Android phone are connected via Wi-Fi 6, and the cursor works perfectly - no lag is noticeable. If possible, I’ll add keyboard and volume support and release it in version 0.3.0.

I’d like to change the subject of this thread from (Windows OS touchpad) to (Windows OS & LG webOS). Does anyone know how to do this? Is there a moderator/administrator I can contact about this?


I’m pleased to announce that a new version with an add-on for Home Assistant has been released. Now you can control not only your PC but also LG TVs with webOS. If you only use the card with your mobile devices, it’s worth hiding it on other devices, as in the screenshot below.

Information on how to install the add-on can be found on the project’s home page.

  • v0.3.0
    • Added Home Assistant add-on for the webOS pointer bridge (multi-TV support, host network).

  • v0.3.1
    • webOS: smoother cursor movement at high sensitivity and much gentler scrolling when multiplier is 1.
    • Card editor: numeric fields (sensitivity, scroll, double-tap window, tap suppression) are easy to edit; labels show defaults so leaving a field blank falls back to a sensible value.

Windows backend now ships as a tray-first touchpad-server.exe (no console); tray icon toggles the log window.
