What Our Users Say
"Thanks to Playability, the hope of playing video games again without my hands has become a reality. Its creator is dynamic and accessible via Discord, don't hesitate anymore!"
Michael KLAUSZ
"A superb experience with great playability. The smooth and functional gameplay, along with all the updates, makes for an excellent experience. A huge thank you for this application, which finally makes video games accessible to everyone. Thank you, Valentin."

"PlayAbility is a very useful program because with its facial and voice recognition AI, it allows me to configure multiple actions in games that I couldn't use before. It's also very practical to be able to configure it on an Xbox controller, as Windows recognizes this type of peripheral perfectly (being from Microsoft). But that's not all, it allows you to configure keyboard keys, individually and combined, configure keyboard for Xbox buttons, Xbox buttons to activate keyboard keys, etc. And it still has more features that I don't master yet and that escape any assessment I can make. As I said, PlayAbility is a very complete program that opens up the universe of video games (on PC and consoles, it's important to remember) to people with disabilities, like me."
Santiago Angulo

What the game sees
Use what you can move
Turn your head to steer or aim, and use a smile or eyebrow raise as button presses.
PlayAbility lets these act as analog controls for precise steering and aiming. See the exact head-tracking and face-gesture settings.
Map it to what the game expects
Map any input to any output: face gestures, head movement, voice, mouse, keyboard, gamepad, or switches.
A smile becomes a button. A head tilt becomes an analog stick. A word becomes an action.
Turn what you can use into what the game expects, precisely and reliably.
Play across your favorite setups
PlayAbility creates a virtual controller behind the scenes, so games think you're using a normal keyboard, mouse, or Xbox controller.
With Remote Play or adapter support, you can also play on PlayStation 5 with Chiaki, Xbox with Remote Play or Greenlight, and Nintendo Switch with a PlayAbility Receiver. Your custom controls, everywhere you game.
