Can I use a Ps4 controller on the xcloud windows app?

Disconnect and then reconnect your Xbox controller. Sometimes, reconnecting the device can help the app recognize the change in input method.

Besides, close Fortnite and the xCloud app completely, then reopen them. This can often resolve temporary glitches.

Also, it's worth looking for any settings within the xCloud app that pertain to controller use. Ensure these are set correctly for using an external controller.

I see, don't know exactly what might have been causing this delay on the series X controller on the Xcloud. By any chance, have you tried the Xcloud on a Windows PC or android device, using your controller, just as a test?

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

Hello Samhall6, PS4 controls may have some difficulty being recognized by xCloud, although the control being on the list may still have some incompatibilities.

I've seen user comments using the controller in the Xbox app on the phone, maybe your controller works with xCloud there.

Hi,

Microsoft likes controllers to have native Xinput support with the games sold on the Windows Store and Game Pass titles. This means Xbox 360 controllers and Xbox One controllers. Stream can use PS4 because it can emulate PS4 controllers with Xinput in the
Steam application.

For PS4 controllers to work on Windows 10 games, you're going to need a third party application. The most popular one is called
DS4 Windows. I'm not familiar with its actual set up however as I don't own any PS4 controllers. But basically, the DS4 Windows application makes Windows 10 believe that your PS4 controller
is an Xbox controller.
