| 2021-10-30 | Bought this on one device and can't install it on another using the same account so I can play with two controllers on 2 devices. Totally not worth paying for this. | ||

| 2021-09-22 | I use this app to connect the PS3 controller to my Honor 9 lite. The left stick (L3) is working fine. However, the rest of the other button are not working. I have followed the troubleshooting guide and restart the app a few times but with no results. Any suggestions? | ||

| 2021-08-23 | I usually don't like apps from the PlayStore, and I usually prefer F-Droid, but for me, this is a must have. It does as it says and hasn't failed me. 5 stars and Great Job! | ||

| 2021-02-13 | While I'm sure that it works well with other phones. It doesn't work with the LG g8. So I couldn't give it a five-star. But you can see the controller registering the controls. I just can't use it on any games. My main reason for trying to use it was for call of duty. But you know. | ||

| 2020-08-03 | Was working perfectly. Earlier today even but now get warning message. I had my displaylink hooked up with screen ps3 controller using this app to connect controler. All working fine, everytime have to tap to approve connection. Now after reset phone i only get a warning this app was build for older android model, and wont connect. Edit: discovered fail issue was if galaxy not spen is not inserter during connection it wont detect. I put pen in before starting, can take out after. Working well | ||

| 2020-04-17 | Does not allow you to pair. Just cabled connection - which already works natively on my phone. (Note8 + PS3 controller) | ||

| 2020-01-11 | App works great, no issues. The controller can be used with any games that support controllers, just like Xbox controllers. | ||

| 2019-12-26 | Worked perfectly on the first version of the ROG phone with Android Pie freshly installed. I got a popup warning that it might not work but no problems so far on a whole bunch of emulators. Thanks devs! | ||

| 2019-11-25 | If you don't want poor feedback, try adding more pertinent information into you product and app store page. I downloaded the compatibility testing app and woohoo, apparently all was compatible...except it isn't and you don't discover that until you buy the main app. Firmware lacks sixaxis support! Great, where can I google more information about that...err, no where! The new CoD Android app by Activision won't work with Sixaxis because, not surprisingly, it want's a proper Bluetooth connected device to connect the app to. The PS3 controller refuses to connect to the Bluetooth, despite using 0000 or 1234, and all that is left is to play apps using the OTG cable...except for the fact that oh opps, you can't play CoD using the OTG cable. Thoroughly disappointed at the waste of time and money spent on buying cables and an app, yet still I have to use Android screen controls to play the game. People aren't mind readers! Perhaps in future you will provide some addition and useful info up front!!!!!! | ||
