According to the Linux kernel document, there are two types of multi-touch devices (called A and B respectively). Type A uses `SYN_MT_REPORT` events to distinguish between different touch tools, while type B uses `ABS_MT_SLOT` and `ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID` to distinguish between touch tools. Tincore Key Mapper currently uses type A device as its virtual touchscreen, which is deprecated.

I hope we can contact the dev, it seems like the app got pulled out from Play Store and the dev doesn't have any plan to recover it or even updating the app

Based on his work on the other app Gliderun, I can see that his Github is https://github.com/tincore, maybe we can try to communicate with him through there ?

Yes...

The GitHub acount is not active. I doubt whether I can communnicate with him there.
Also, I just do not know where to talk with him about the key mapper app. There is not a public repo for the key mapper app under his account, and I cannot see his email address.
