Ever wished you could use your PS5 DualSense controller to play games on your iPhone? Well, guess what? You can! Apple hooked us up and made it super simple to connect your DualSense controller to your iPhone via Bluetooth.
PS5 Controller to iPhone
- Head into your iPhone’s Settings and tap on Bluetooth.
- Your iPhone should see your DualSense controller under “Other Devices” – pretty easy, right?
- Just tap on “DualSense Wireless Controller” to pair. If the connection is a success, the light bar on your controller will turn solid blue and you’re good to go!
Having Trouble?
- Can’t find your DualSense on the list? No worries, just refresh your Bluetooth or restart your iPhone. It might just be a glitch.
- If it pairs but won’t connect, try tapping the PlayStation button on your controller. Sometimes it just needs a little nudge.
- Keeps Dropping? Make sure your controller is charged up and close enough to your iPhone. A weak connection can be a real buzzkill.
Why connect your PS5 Controller to your iPhone?
- The DualSense’s design and familiar buttons make gaming feel way more natural (like you’re a pro, no joke).
- Some iPhone games actually work with the DualSense’s killer haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. Imagine feeling every explosion and pulling a virtual race car trigger that gets stiffer as you press it down.
- Tons of popular mobile games, including some on Apple Arcade, are now down with the PS5 controller. More games to conquer, more victories to achieve – what’s not to love?
