Clean Input Debugger Tool for Unity Mobile Devs
After slamming my head into the wall for the 37th time while debugging mobile input, I decided I was done. I needed something dead simple that could just show me what the hell the player was actually doing—touches, key presses, input phases, whatever.
So I built one. And now it’s up for anyone else dealing with the same nonsense.
🧰 What It Is
Input Debugger is a drop-in prefab that logs your mobile touch input and keyboard input in real time. It’s a clean, lightweight tool built specifically for Unity URP (2022.3.6f1+) and designed to just work—no fluff, no bulky setup.
✅ Shows touches (with position, phase, and delta)
✅ Logs key presses from a configurable list
✅ Displays in UI or logs to console (toggleable)
✅ URP-ready, mobile-tested, touch-safe
✅ One script, one prefab, one job done right
🧪 Why I Built This
When you're developing mobile-first, Unity makes it surprisingly annoying to debug touch input. Half the time you're just guessing if a tap even registered. Unity's Input Debugger (the window) isn't much help in builds, and the new Input System? Great—but overkill for quick prototyping or small tools.
So I made a barebones visual logger that gives clear, actionable feedback on input as you play—especially useful for:
-
🔧 Debug builds during mobile testing
-
🧪 QA workflows
-
📱 Fast prototypes or UI testing
-
👀 Showing clients/devs what’s being triggered
💡 How to Use It
-
Import the
.unitypackage
-
Drag the InputDebuggerCanvas prefab into your scene
-
Press Play
-
Profit (or at least, sanity)
Want console logs too? Flip a checkbox. Want to change which keys to watch? Edit a list. Done.
🧼 Clean Code Promise
I made this for people like me—who hate messy scripts, unfinished junk, and guessing games.
The code is clean. Commented. Easy to tweak. No trash or "TODO" comments.
🔜 What’s Next?
If folks find this useful, I might add:
-
Toggle key
-
Auto-hide mode
-
Color-coded phases
-
Touch trails (visual feedback for swipes)
