Hey @d4g , generally I have found Xinput support on Apple stuff to be so-so. I generally use Switch mode or Dinput (which will soon be HID-USB).

Is there a need for Xinput mode over any of the other modes that work as expected?

d4g commented 3 months ago

No not really. I want it to use with Xbox Cloud Streaming and thought that xinput would probably the most compatible.

I found it interesting that even the controller signals something with the blinking led which does not occur when I connect it to PC.

TheTrainGoes commented 3 months ago

I've tested on my iPad Pro on Xbox Cloud Streaming and there are multiple other modes that work just fine like PS4, Switch and keyboard.

Going to close this as there is no action for us to take.

I don't really get why you would close the issue. I get that's not of a high priority, but it's a bug nevertheless?

TheTrainGoes commented 3 months ago

@d4g iOS is not an officially supported platform by us. The official Xbox controller also does not work on iOS when connected via USB.

Since there are multiple working modes for an unsupported platform I do not feel the need to keep this issue open and do not consider it to be a bug.
