Gamesir controller no longer working after iOS 13.4 update

Had my Gamesir G6 controller for over 6 months now and have been using it with no issues. Now I’ve updated to iOS 13.4 it is no longer working and I am unable to downgrade back to iOS 13.3.1 as this is now unsigned.


The device connects via Bluetooth as normal but I don’t get any touchscreen inputs when trying to use the controller. Please fix this Bluetooth peripheral issue as I’m sure this is effecting many other peripheral devices

Overall I’m totally happy I’m up and going again! But since you asked I’ll rant about some of the biggest issues I’ve noticed.


#1 Issue is you have to use GameSir template for button placement now if you want the controller to interact with that particular button VS having the freedom to place and customize the button anywhere on the screen originally.

Also it’s lost some of the finer tuning details I used to enjoy like custom editing button scenarios...

for ex. I would set up one button if you single pressed it would select your primary gun or holster it you where already holding the weapon & the custom edit I would use, was if you held that same button for like 2sec it switch from your primary gun to your secondary gun.

Also I’ve lost the ability to use the mixed aiming feature, where as long as you held the aim button it would continue to aim and then return to character view when you let go, or if you single tapped the aim button it would stay locked in the aim view until you single tapped the aim button to return view. Now the hold feature no longer works. Same with peeping side to side.
