Controls for Saints Row: The Third
Consoles use one fixed layout. PC lets you rebind. Phones use touch, which Feral says you can customize, plus a pad or a keyboard. I do not have an official diagram of the default touch layout.
Getting into a car
For the original Xbox 360 layout, Y enters a vehicle, LB sprints, A jumps, X reloads, LT aims and RT fires on foot. The PS3 layout uses Triangle to enter, L2 to sprint, Cross to jump, Square to reload, L1 to aim and R1 to fire. PC bindings can be changed; read the current binding in the Controls menu rather than assuming another player’s custom key.
Switch uses the Full Package build, so its pad layout follows the console scheme, not a Remastered menu. Mobile adds touch on top. Feral’s announcement lists touch, gamepad, and mouse and keyboard. PlayStation, Xbox, and MFi pads are named on the iOS listing.

What is still a gap
A picture of the default phone HUD would answer the layout question cleanly. I do not have one I can credit, so the phone column stays a feature list: touch, pad, mouse, keyboard. Rebinding on PC is the only layout I will call flexible.
FAQ
Can I rebind keys on PC?
Yes. The control notes say the PC version can be rebound. Consoles stay on one scheme.
Does the phone version take a controller?
Feral lists gamepad support, and the App Store listing names PlayStation, Xbox, and MFi pads.
