Phone as controller

Maybe there already was the same question... I did not find any android app that would fully emulate an OUYA controller. All I found are apps that work over Wi-Fi with only one game (like Bomb Squad). I'm thinking to make such emulator, but maybe I've missed something. Anybody have thoughts or links to point me? Thanks.

    We make an app called Blue Board that does emulate some controller input. But from what we have found its just can't emulate a controller fully. Its only able to move around the menus of Ouya and play a few basic games. If its a game the uses anytime state querying, which is a lot of them, than we can't emulate that.

    Interesting, why couldn't android app be queried anytime?

    I think its possible but it would require knowing exactly how Ouya is querying their controllers in order to emulate it. I tried contacting them to see if they would be willing to help with that. They never responded to me. I know they are really busy right now with all the problems they are having over there. So I might try again a few months down the road.
