![]() You could also go the wired route with a Mac by plugging the controller into a USB port. Any Version 2 Xbox Wireless Controller with Bluetooth will pair wirelessly with everything from iPhones to iPads to Macs. ![]() If you have access to Xbox Cloud Gaming, you probably have an Xbox system, which means you already have an Xbox controller. It's also worth noting that even though this is called an "iOS controller," it will work with Android smartphones and tablets that have USB-C ports. It's a little tricky the first time you do it, but once you figure out how it's done, it's pretty straightforward. To swap cables, you have to stick a paper clip in a hole in the bottom of the controller, which releases the cable module. Remove the dock and you can use this with any iPad that has a Lightning or USB-C port. The controller is nicely designed and doesn't feel cheap (the dock can accommodate a variety of iPhones, including larger iPhone Max models). While there's no built-in battery that keeps your phone charged while playing, like the Backbone and Razer Kishi V2, this model has a pass-through charging option if you want to hook up a separate Lightning cable to a battery pack or wall charger. Like RiotPWR's earlier iOS controller, which is white, the black RP1950 is a more traditionally shaped Xbox-like controller that includes a mount for your phone. The new RiotPWR RP1950 controller solves that problem by allowing you to swap out the Lightning cable module for a USB-C cable module. Because it has an integrated Lightning cable that allows for lag-free gaming - at least when it comes to button presses - you couldn't use it with newer iPads that have a USB-C connection. ![]() I previously had the RiotPWR Mobile Cloud Gaming Controller for iOS on this list, but it had one flaw. ![]() It's compatible with all iPhones running iOS 13 or later.įor instance, it already has a dedicated gameplay capture button, it can tag gameplay and share as a link, it incorporates a dynamic feed and, because it's designed for use with all mobile games, it can serve as a central hub for those titles. But Backbone's software is one of the keys to its success, and makes the controller an easy update for current owners wanting to get the new features. The Backbone One game pad uses a layout similar, though not identical, to that of Microsoft's own Xbox controllers. (And Backbone now makes a white PlayStation Edition of this controller.) The Backbone One is compatible with the Xbox app as well as the PlayStation Remote Play app. As part of the Designed for Xbox program, it also has specific features designed to make you feel more like you're playing on an Xbox or stand-alone device. The Backbone One is my favorite of the iPhone controllers that mimic the physical experience of the Nintendo Switch, although Razer's improved second-generation Kishi V2 controller is a close second. Android users can download the Xbox Game Pass app from the Google Play Store or Samsung Galaxy Store (Samsung devices only). If you're an Apple user, you simply go to the Xbox website and sign in to the Microsoft account linked to your Xbox Game Pass, then tap the share button at the bottom of the screen and select Add to Home Screen. Initially, Microsoft said that if you're using a web browser to play cloud games, the Xbox Wireless Controller was the only "officially supported controller." However, most controllers I've tried - and every controller on this list - works for cloud gaming on a browser. Microsoft maintains a list of supported controllers, but you'll find others that work.
