With the announcement of Apple gaming subscription service Apple Arcade coming out later this year, the Cupertino-based company is offering support for different gaming controllers to improve its gaming experience.
It seems like Apple is taking the gaming industry seriously this year. With iOS 13 coming out soon, Apple has already supported the PS4 controller.
This article will show how you can connect the PS4 controller to your iPhone seamlessly. Enjoy the ride.
How to connect a PS4 Controller to an iPhone (iOS13)?
Connecting your controller to your iPhone requires four steps. However, you need to note some things.
Your iPhone must be on iOS 13 beta and have a dual shock 4 controller to get a positive result.
For now, it doesn’t support any other controller.
1. Open your iPhone’s Settings app and go to Bluetooth.
2. Toggle on the Bluetooth and wait for a while
3. Turn on the Bluetooth on the PlayStation Dual Shock 4 controller. To do this, press and hold the PS button for 3-4 seconds. When it is done, the blue light will start blinking.
4. Next, go back to your iPhone. Under the Bluetooth settings page, you will find a Dual Shock 4 Wireless Controller. Tap on it, and your controller will be connected to your iPhone.
5. When that is done, the light on the controller will change from blue to pink.
6. With that, you can now enjoy your game on your iPhone, which supports Fortnite, GTA, etc.
As you can see above, it’s quite straightforward, and you don’t need a workaround to complete it.
I believe Apple fans are happy about the launch of Apple Arcade later this year. It will improve the gaming experience with great new features and other controller support.
