# Gamepad Detection

If this feature is enabled in Touch Interface project setting, Touch interface is automatically hidden when a gamepad is detected or when pressing a button on the connected gamepad. Touch interface appears again if the user touches the screen or when gamepad is disconnected.

The gamepad is detected (the event is triggered) only when a button is pressed or the joystick is moved.
