How to use a Bluetooth controller with Android games

Many action and racing games support controllers. Here is how to pair one and fix common problems.

A controller makes action, racing and RPG games much more comfortable on a phone or tablet.

Pairing a controller

  • Put the controller in pairing mode
  • Open Settings, Connected devices, Pair new device on your phone
  • Select the controller and wait for the confirmation
  • Open the game and check its controller settings

If buttons are mixed up, look for a layout or remapping option in the game's settings. Games such as Frostbound Saga and Iron Vanguard support full remapping.
