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 | The KopPad's main use is in [[Story Mode]], where it has 5 [[#Apps|apps]] (6 in ''Deluxe'') that each have different functions. In [[Mission Mode]] and [[Bingo Battle]], the KopPad can also be used, but it is more limited. 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. | |||

Besides allowing audio and video communication between leaders and the [[S.S. Drake]], the KopPad also allows the explorers to read [[data file]]s, get terrain and Pikmin info, store data on [[fruit]]s, and take pictures of the environment. For these latter purposes, the KopPad comes equipped with installable '''apps'''. Each app has an icon on the KopPad touchscreen that can be tapped to open the respective app. Some apps are installed at certain points in the game (at which point they are installed to all explorers' KopPads simultaneously), and uninstalled apps appear with a × symbol on their icon. If new content was added to an app, the word "NEW" will appear under its icon. The five icons are as follows: | Besides allowing audio and video communication between leaders and the [[S.S.

The '''Exploration Notes''' are a collection of all [[data file]]s found. The 120 data files are divided into six categories on this menu. This app is installed after one data file is recovered.

The '''Fruit File''' is the fourth app on the KopPad. It is installed after the first fruit is recovered, and lists the types and amount of all collected fruits up to this point, sorted by order of collection. Tapping on a fruit will show its name, the amount of juice it's worth, how many of it have been collected, how many Pikmin are needed to carry it, Brittany's notes and finally, if the fruit radar has been unlocked, how many of this type of fruit there are in the game. | The '''Fruit File''' is the fourth app on the KopPad.
