I was able to connect my bluetooth xbox one controller to my macbook pro, but i didnt have any luck connecting to ipad

Im having issues with my Ipad 2 working with the companion aswell. Everytime it says It cannot connect and make sure its connected to the same connection as my xbox one, which it is. very frustrating.

Hi, so according to my example, you suggest to disconnect the Bluetooth of my iPad? I’ve tried but the issue is that when I turn on the controller it will try to connect to the last device (iPad), I can’t find a way to force the controller to connect to a device different from the last one

Hi IMAX_7. My name is Kyle and I'm an independent advisor.

Thank you for posting on the Xbox Communities Forum. While the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 does support connecting to iPad via Bluetooth, it sadly cannot be connected with a USB cable. I apologise for any inconvenience caused by this.

Please reach back if you have further questions.

Thanks,
Kyle
