Xbox Game Pass Android App joysticks and D-pad are not recognized

Hi

I just found the solution. It doesn't come from the app nor the pad but from the phone.

To make it work, go to Settings-> accessibility -> Advanced settings -> accessibility gesture and then allow all on universal Switch

I hope it will work for you to.

Yes have you found a fix or is it still broken it the same on the s 20

Another nearby toggle lets you set the joystick to act as a D-pad, left analog stick, or right analog stick, which can come in quite handy depending on the game you're playing.

Hi TheHooniganTX,

thanks for your reply.

The toggle you mentioned is not working. That is the problem I am facing at the moment. The Xbox only recognizes the joystick as D-Pad, whatever the toggle is set to (DP, LS, RS).

Overall, the only real issue I have with the design elements is with the d-pad. When playing fighting games like Killer Instinct that require quarter-circle back, for example, it's incredibly hard to do those kinds of moves with the traditional d-pad that
was brought back for the Xbox One. Sure, I suppose I could use the joystick, but it's not as fast or as intuitive as an actual arcade joystick (lord knows I'm not willing to shell out big $$$ for 1 of those). I loved the rotating d-pad they had for the special
edition controllers on the Xbox 360 - I wish we had more of those or something similar.

Xbox / Microsoft does not sell any component parts for the controllers. Only the removable tops for the joysticks and d-pad cover and the paddles too
