    Using an Xbox wireless controller with iPad/Mobile


    My son plays Minecraft on his ipad and given there are no xbox series x consoles on the market at the moment, we bought him an xbox wireless controller to use with it. I did research and as long as the ipad has ios version14+ then it should work (which it does). The controller connects fine to the ipad but we can’t get it to work in Minecraft. Can anyone help please?

    :)

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

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Joel, I did a little research regarding connectivity to IOS system devices, and depending on the performance can vary according to the system.

    Your control being up to date and your iPad too, may be Apple having to release some updates to this issue.

    Connect and troubleshoot Bluetooth on your Xbox Wireless Controller

    Hello again Joel, unfortunately Microsoft does not provide information on when it will have a new firmware update, however in insider programs after going through all the rings of the program they release an update.

    Regarding compatibility with Apple, From what I see I do not believe that this is the part of Microsoft, because Bluetooth is a licensed technology and many use it, it seems Apple has the particular way of managing it on devices the same no longer happens on Android devices.

    It’s just a standard cover your butt warning message, I really wouldn’t worry about it Unless you actually observe problems

    Yeah, the controller functions normally. It’s just that it has no “disconnect” option in settings unlike my other Bluetooth devices. The Xbox controller is officially supported by Apple (and has been for a few months/years) so I hope both Microsoft and Apple resolve this issue soon.
