      My Pi 3 is running version 4.2.7 of RetroPie from the official premade SD card image, no tinkering.
      Trying to follow this guide, I installed Virtual Gamepad form the Experimental Packages, then tried connecting to my Pi's IP address (just wrote in 192.168.0.101)via Chrome on my Android phone. However, instead of the image of the SNES controller, it only yielded an error: ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.

      Could there be anything I forgot: configuring my network, opening ports on the Pi, anything else I have to enter into the address bar?

      I'm not too Linux-savy yet, so if any additional info is needed, please write the command I'd have to enter or where I should look.

      Thanks in advance for any help!
