Troubleshooting

Pairing Issues

If the controller does not pair or connect correctly:

  • Ensure the controller is in the correct pairing mode (Xbox, PS, HID, Apple) by holding the Home button and the corresponding mode button (X, B, A, Y) for 2 seconds until the light flashes rapidly.
  • Check your device's Bluetooth settings to ensure Bluetooth is enabled and the controller is visible.
  • If the controller's light is slowly blinking, it's in auto-reconnect mode. If it doesn't connect automatically, manually select it from your device's Bluetooth list.
  • Try unpairing the controller from your device's Bluetooth settings and then re-pairing it.
  • Ensure your phone case is not thicker than 1mm, as this can interfere with the telescopic design and connection.
