    How to reduce controller sensitivity after recent update.


    New updates have come out & since then my controller seems over-responsive. Small taps will cause the cursor to travel quite far & characters continue moving long after I've stopped moving them. This makes fine details nearly impossible. This effects all my games & makes many detail-oriented games unplayable.

    Every search I've done calls this "Fast Scrolling" & says it can be disabled under "Ease of Access" tab in Settings, but there is no "Ease of Access" tab. What can I do to reduce controller sensitivity? Or is there a way to undo the last update?

    :)

    Hi Ixelhaine,

    Welcome to Microsoft Xbox Community Forum. I understand that you're experiencing issues with your controller sensitivity after the recent update.



    Firstly, I'd like to ask if you're using an Xbox One or Xbox Series X/S console? This information will help me provide you with the most accurate solution.



    If you're using an Xbox One console, you can adjust the controller sensitivity by following these steps:

    1. Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.

    2. Select "Settings" and then "Ease of Access."

    3. Select "Controller" and then "Controller sensitivity."

    4. Adjust the sensitivity to your desired level.



    If you're using an Xbox Series X/S console, you can adjust the controller sensitivity by following these steps:

    1. Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.

    2. Select "Profile & system" and then "Settings."

    3. Select "Ease of Access" and then "Controller."

    4. Adjust the sensitivity to your desired level.



    If you're still unable to find the "Ease of Access" tab, it's possible that your console may not have the latest update installed. You can check for updates by following these steps:

    1. Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.

    2. Select "Profile & system" and then "Settings."

    3. Select "System" and then "Updates & downloads."

    4. Select "Console update available" and then follow the on-screen instructions to install the latest update.



    If you're still experiencing issues after adjusting the controller sensitivity or updating your console, it's possible that there may be an issue with your controller. You can try resetting your controller by following these steps:

    1. Press and hold the Xbox button on your controller for 10 seconds.

    2. After the controller turns off, press the Xbox button again to turn it back on.



    Let me know how it goes.

    Kind regards,
    Marrion

    Anyone have this issue since the latest update as it's adding in key bind options for keyboard and mouse mapping should reduce the mouse pointer sensitivity in devices menu tab as mines was set to default at high or max sensitivity.

    Hope this helps

    Xbox One Controller Update

    There are new versions of the controller? I thought there was only one model bar cosmetic differences.

    It is a software update to reduce over-sensitivity.
