This app is nearly perfect as a "quick" controller for my EV3 system. It does a better job connecting than the official Lego Commander app. I really love that it now controls all 4 channels. The only remaining issue is that I can not "pivot" turn. Sliding full-left or full-right across the middle should make the Mindstorm spin. Instead, there is no motor response. I can only turn going forwards or backwards. A better control scheme is that the X-axis is the turn-rate and the Y-axis is the forward/backward rate. I'd restrict the pivot turns to 50% power. So, assuming that each X and Y access is a value from -100 to 100: Motor A Power= X/2+Y. Motor B Power=-X/2+Y. In any case, nice work! Any chance you could add the 4th channel to your Ev3 Pad Numeric app?
