As of right now the only ones advertised to work are the XBox and Playstation controllers. There are others that have been made specifically for iOS devices but those that were made for other devices that now are supported are XBox and Playstation. Based on what I can see for the Joy-Con is that you pair them using USB and not Bluetooth. Using a controller on iOS requires pairing over Bluetooth.
