Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I bought a controller to use with the android app via Bluetooth. I would disable the mobile controls in the settings, but I worry I'll leave home without my controller and forget to turn the controls back on.

Describe the Feature

There are a few ideas I have

  • Auto hide the controls if a gamepad/keyboard is detected on mobile after several seconds of touch screen inactivity. From there they can be woken up again by tapping the screen. This would prevent a soft lock. Also useful for controllers with less buttons. My controller doesn't have triggers so there are some keybinds I can only access with the touch controls. I'm using an 8bitdo zero 2 controller
  • Add a way to turn the controls on again with touch screen after you disable them. I was thinking maybe a long press on the screen or some small button in the top left corner
  • Add a button to hide the mobile controls without disabling them all together. This would also make screenshots better for mobile!
