8BitDo Ultimate Software for Android

Do not let it update your controller firmware to 3.0, it will stop getting recognized as a Bluetooth device by the iOS. Stay with 2.1. If this happened, or the controller got bricked in the process (as mine has been) you can roll back using the a USB connection to your home computer and their official firmware update tool. Just roll back to 2.1 and everything will be back to normal.

was on 1.08 and the app said I need a firmware update to 3.00, but after it finished my controllers don’t work at all and the app says they are now on 0.44 and it keeps trying to update to 3.00 repeatedly

I just got the latest controller and this device and the app work perfectly together. You can even modify it while you’re playing a game (provided you pause the game first.) So far I’ve had no problems. I tested the macros and they work fine. it helps with certain fighting games.My only complaint is that it does not include any of the Lite controllers

This needs to support their other controllers. I’m quite upset that I can’t configure my “Ultimate Bluetooth Controller” with this. And they don’t have other iOS apps. It did offer to and update my firmware though. Hopefully that didn’t screw anything up lol I’d be shocked if a real developer couldn’t get this supporting other models in a week or two.. Get on it 8bitdo!

The basic functionality seems to be done easily. Three profiles for different games is nice and the information gets transferred to the controller quickly. However looking past the trigger/joystick/vibration settings the rest is just boring. No updates, no turbo ability, no macros. Not even the ability to pick different buttons not a standard Xbox controller when playing a pc game that requires a few more buttons. I would love as many options as the steam deck remapping. Or to export/import settings for when I visit friends.
