Mobile Input

Roblox Mobile Input Systems

When implementing touch controls, follow these patterns for responsive mobile gameplay.

Platform Detection

local function getPlatform()

        end
    elseif UserInputService.GamepadEnabled then

    else
        return "desktop"
    end
end

local function isMobile()
    return UserInputService.TouchEnabled and not UserInputService.KeyboardEnabled
