A dedicated touch screen controller for Octoprint supporting older Android phones / tablets (Android 4.X)
Device specs: Android 4.x and above, 4inch screen with a minimum resolution of 680x340. (Single core - 512Mb) It is Free Software and released under the GNU Affero General Public License V3.
** Directly supports Klipper firmware with OctoKlipper plugin: https://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/klipper/ **
** See https://github.com/jakebullet70/OctoTouchController/wiki/OctoKlipper **
NOTE: Newer Android phones WILL NOT WORK. I know now Android 13 fails and I have tested Android 4,5,6 and 7 myself. Google is very famous for breaking existing software with newer releases.
