I'm using LibGDX and flixel-android to build a Desktop/Android game. It feels like there should be a way of checking to see if you're currently being run on an Android device, the Desktop, and so on, but I can't find it anywhere. Am I supposed to just pass it down from the individual launchers? Surely LibGDX can just tell me?

I think you're after Application querying
switch(Gdx.app.getType()) {
case ApplicationType.Android:
// android specific code
case ApplicationType.Desktop:
// desktop specific code
case ApplicationType.WebGl:
/// HTML5 specific code
}

Magd's code may have worked at one stage, it didn't with my version of GDX, or certainly not my implementation anyway. I had to change it as follows:
switch(Gdx.app.getType()) {
case Android:
// android specific code
TouchPadController.createTouchPad();
case Desktop:
// desktop specific code
case WebGL:
/// HTML5 specific code
}
