The '''KopPad''' (GPAD in Japanese) is a [[menu]] in {{p3}} with various functions. It can be used to view the [[radar]], see information about the world, and even take photos. In-universe, it is a device physically used by the [[leader]]s, and looks very similar to the [[Wii U]] GamePad. In the original ''Pikmin 3'', the GamePad represents this device and all its functions take place on the controller; in {{p3d}}, its functions take place on the main screen. | The '''KopPad''' (GPAD in Japanese) is a [[menu]] in {{p3}} with various functions.

The KopPad's main use is in [[Story Mode]], where it has 5 [[#Apps|apps]] (6 in ''Deluxe'') that each have different functions. [[Olimar]] and [[Louie]] canonically use KopPads in the [[Side Stories]] albeit with fewer functions; both of them comment on their pads in one instance.{{cite quote|No matter...

In the latter, it has no extra apps at all, and only shows the map. | ||
The KopPad can be personalized, as its screen rim color matches that of their owner: [[Alph]]'s is blue, [[Brittany]]'s is pink, and [[Captain Charlie|Charlie]]'s is green. The device is used in [[cutscene]]s to receive calls from other leaders and the [[S.S. Drake]]. At the beginning of the game after crash-landing on the planet, Alph is separated from his KopPad. As a result, the player cannot use it until after the first [[bridge]] is built. | The KopPad can be personalized, as its screen rim color matches that of their owner: [[Alph]]'s is blue, [[Brittany]]'s is pink, and [[Captain Charlie|Charlie]]'s is green.
