    Connect Xbox controller to IPhone


    I have a new Xbox controller (with Bluetooth)
    I can connect the controller to the Xbox and it works
    I can connect the controller to my Mac and it works
    I can connect the controller to my iPhone and the connection is successful but I can’t use it
    There is no input
    I tried everything on the help page and the forums but nothing helps
    Restart controller and iPhone, update controller and iPhone to latest firmware, reconnect IPhone, I tried it with different iPhones and it does not work with any of them, I also tried different apps (that support controllers) and it didn’t work

    In summary: the controller works, the Bluetooth works, the Bluetooth connection to the iPhone works but the iPhone does not react (also the Xbox app does not recognise a controller is connected)

    What can I do?

    :)

    Help! Controller won’t connect to phone

    The Xbox One Controllers developed and certified with Apple’s MFi (Made For iPhone/iPad) certification will work with games that have implemented MFi Controller support. This is just like how Apple certifies other iPhones/iPad accessories, like Lightning
    cables.

    Some of these Controllers include an increase that locks your iPhone in place, allowing you to use the iPhone like a portable game console, holding the controller in your hands. Some drivers use MFi to a physical connection, so you need to connect to the
    Flash port on your iPhone or iPad. Though, only the most MFi drivers connect wirelessly via Bluetooth, such as a Bluetooth headset or keyboard.

    Now we see how an Xbox Controller to connect to your iPhone or iPad.

    First, you’ll need to insert the controller in pairing mode

    Now, turn on the Xbox wireless controller via the Xbox Button

    Then open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad and select Bluetooth.

    Click on the Controller to pair it with your device.

    Note: if you have to purchase to game for your iPhone so first you need to check controller supported device.

    If you’ve Jailbroken it, you can also try installing the “drivers for all” Cydia controller. It will allow the driver as MFi, as the controller function 4 Sony PlayStation activated as an MFi controller.

    Controllers won't stay connected - Xbox Series X

    Updates:

    Paired both controllers to console at the same time. Both controllers lost and regain sync at the same time.

    Paired Elite controller to iPhone. No disconnects.

    Paired one controller to console and other to phone. Controller connected to console disconnected, controller connected to iPhone stayed connected.

    Xbox elite 2 not connecting

    Have you tried pairing it this way:

    To connect an Xbox One controller to your iPhone, start by putting the controller into pairing mode by pressing the Xbox button and holding down the sync button (top of the controller) simultaneously. After that, go into the iPhone’s
    settings app and select the Bluetooth to open the Bluetooth menu. Select the controller from the list of available devices and choose to pair it with the iPhone.

    This will only work so long as the iPhone’s Bluetooth technology is functional and the intended game allows for the use of a controller through a Bluetooth connection. To verify both systems support the use of the controller, check
    the phone’s Bluetooth system information as well as the game’s software information. If the app or game does not make it readily apparent if it supports the use of a controller, check the developer’s official website for more information.

    Connecting Controller to iPhone

    Hi,

    with iOS 12 it's not possible to connect Xbox Controllers.

    With iOS 13, that comes in September it will.

    meanwhile you would need to have an Apple certified Controller. (MFI)
