Ways To Connect A Controller To An IOS or Android Phone:

There are several ways and most importantly it depends on what device you have and whether it supports Android or iOs. It’s usually easier with Android, but it’s also no problem with iOs. But the question is also what we can use such a driver for the phone and that is, for example, playing on the phone. Playing on the phone will probably be one of the main reasons because controlling the phone with the Playstation controller would probably not be entirely pleasant.

The controller is used for multiple games, whether to play FPS games or Battle Royale such as PUBG Mobile or others, to racing games or even sports games such as FIFA.
