Hi Jr_629,

Thanks for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're having trouble using a PlayStation controller with your iPhone and we'd like to help.

First, have you checked to see if there is a firmware update for the controller?

Does this happen with every game? It sounds like you have covered most of the steps in the resource linked to your post: Pair a PlayStation controller to your Apple device, but is your controller supported?

"See which wireless controllers are supported

"PlayStation DualShock 4 Wireless Controller

PlayStation 5 DualSense Wireless Controller"

Should you continue to have trouble, or you've already attempted these steps, reach out to Apple for additional assistance: Get Support

Best Regards.

I fixed it last night i couldn’t leave it alone because it was working the first 3 days on cod mobile.. so what i did was i unpaired it (forgot device) on phone deleted the game an the re-downloaded the game an reseted the controller (button on back) then paired it an boom it worked again. So now it works an its a done deal.
