Is Playstation 5 dualsense controller compatible with iOS 14.1?
The PS4 dualshock 4 pairs with bluetooth fine, but PS5 dualsense does not show up under bluetooth / my devices or pairs up.
I use PS5 dualsense for mobile gaming on my iphone Xs, I also tried to go through "PS Remote Play" app and no luck there either.
Any suggestion.
iPhone XS
My experience till now:
tldr; doesn't work on any Apple device I've tested yet.
iPadOS 14.3 beta 2: PS5 Dualsense is not discoverable via bluetooth.
iPadOS 14.3 beta 2: Lighting to USB C connection doesn't work.
macOS Big Sur 11.0.3: Discoverable via bluetooth, connect fine, doesn't function
macOS Big Sur 11.0.3: USB C to USB C connection recognises the controller but doesn't function.
iPadOS 14.2: Not discoverable via bluetooth.

Apple's site still simply says "Microsoft and Apple are working together to bring compatibility for the Xbox Series X controller to customers in a future update."
There is mention of the PS5 whatsoever.
I tried with the PS5 controller and no luck. Same issues as @silenthrope7. Connects for a spit section and then disconnects it, but I saves the connection.
This can be numerous thinks. It would be Apple, Song, etc.
I someone from apple support can jump on this thread and tell us if apple is supporting this new ps5 controller or not.
I’m having the same issue, I’m not sure if it’s a issue or apple hasn’t released support for it but as of now, it’s still not connecting or even appearing in the Bluetooth list but does appear on android devices
K. Yeah I tired on different apple devices such as iPhone 12, 11 with iOS 14.1 running. Unfortunately, still no luck. Currently using PS4 controller but that also has it issues. It keeps disconnecting and I have to reconnect middle of a game.
According to the report from Apple, in iOS 14.3 the dual sense controller will be supported. For those of you who are impatient and can’t wait for 14.3 to drop officially then 14.3 came out on November 12
Same issue. Would be good to get an update direct from Apple on this. A bit disappointing not having this compatibility locked in on release, especially as there has just been a big IOS update just days ago that this could have been snuck into rather than making people wait for the next update.
Yeah, hopefully they will fix it soon. Because, even using PS4 controller you may have issues we well. I keep reconnecting the PS4 controller to my devices every few minute, since it gets disconnected. 🤷♂️
Apple what is going on? Just release the support for this controller. It’s not hard. I’m dying to use my controller since I ain’t secure no ps5. It’s simply an on switch for them at this point. That they won’t flick on
So an update this morning. I've installed the regular public rollout (not beta) version of IOS 14.3 on my iPhone 12. Surprise surprise, it still doesn't support PS5 controller compatibility. The remote still does not appear in bluetooth settings when in pairing mode. So IOS 14.3 still doesn't seem to support the PS5 DualSense controller.
*The remote is also running the latest PS5 firmware which was released a few days ago.
Has anyone been able to resolve this issue?
I have the same issues above.
Bluetooth screen - doesn't show up at all
Accessibility menu - shows up connects and then disconnects
Bluetooth menu after accessibility - shows up but connects for split second and drops
Apple! Whats going on!
J’ai le même problème cela devrait fonctionner depuis iOS 14.3 ?
Quand cela seras opérationnel j’ai acheter la dualsense pour mon iPhone car plus de ps5,
le retour haptic fonctionnera avec le processeur haptic de l’iPhone ?
The DualSense is only compatible with android right now. Sony said that they will soon release a firmware update for the controllers that will add iOS compatibility. The DualShock 4 is compatible with both platforms though.
Let history show that nearly 3 months later, nobody from apple has come by to explain why the basic features from DualShock4 are not supported. We cannot even use the controller purely for input. They should either provide an estimate or state formally that they never intend to support it. This is not how a technology company should handle these questions.
Apple is definitely here. When I posted something they deemed not constructive, they directly deleted it and sent me an email bragging about it but never got to the chore of the issue. Apple doesn’t value their customers, it seems to me
PS5 dualsense compatibility issue.
