Phone Controller
Wireless Gamepad for Windows
Only for iPhone
Free
iPhone
Turn your iPhone into a customizable wireless gamepad for your Windows PC, with optional motion controls and local haptic feedback.
Turn your iPhone into a wireless gamepad for a Windows PC on the same Wi-Fi network.
Phone Controller requires the Phone Controller Windows companion and the
ViGEmBus virtual controller driver on your PC. Install them before playing.
This app does not connect directly to a game console and does not include games.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR CONTROLS
Use a full two-stick controller or left- or right-hand single-stick layouts.
Move and resize buttons, with separate saved layouts for portrait, landscape and
upright or sideways holding. Use independent touches for sticks and buttons.
ADD MOTION AND TOUCH FEEDBACK
Enable optional gyroscope and accelerometer controls for compatible PC software
through the companion's DSU motion bridge. Adjust sensitivity and calibrate while
still. Optional iPhone haptics provide feedback for button presses and stick
movement. Motion support depends on the game or emulator and its configuration.
CONNECT ON YOUR LOCAL NETWORK
Scan the QR code in the Windows companion using the in-app scanner, or paste the
pairing URL. Keep the companion open while playing. Up to four phones can connect
as independent controllers. One phone supplies one motion source.
No app account, ads or analytics. Use a trusted private network: local controller
traffic is unencrypted. See the privacy policy for the data sent to your computer.
Compatibility: iPhone with iOS 17 or later; Windows PC with the companion and
ViGEmBus installed; both devices on the same local network. Games must support
compatible controller input. Motion requires a compatible DSU client. Standalone
left/right layouts require manual game or emulator bindings. Haptic feedback
depends on device hardware.
Phone Controller is an independent app and is not affiliated with Nintendo or
Microsoft. Joy-Con and Xbox names describe control compatibility. The app does
not provide IR, NFC, Nintendo HD rumble or absolute positional tracking.
