  • Laggy controller.

    I would avoid this controller at all cost. It's at times laggy. Which pretty much defeats the whole point of having it.

    Save your money
  • Considering buying controller/ bought controller

    Would like to be able to explore the app before purchase. I would like to check if I can use this to play star wars hunters from the AppStore. It is not compatible; please update that is the only reason I bought this controller

  • Limited game list

    The app is fine for changing settings but it focuses on being a game launcher. That would be fine if the list of selectable games wasn’t so limited. Star Wars: Hunters has been out for two months and ZZZ is the top grossing game in it’s class. The controller also has so much input lag that I end up having to use touch controls anyway.
  • What??

    There’s no reason why I’m not able to add any App Store app. I understand that you should be able to add games that support controllers but still if I could use the app as a launcher for all my App Store games it would only make sense. The only notable games I can launch are COD mobile and Minecraft, all my App Store emulators don’t show up, dead cells doesn’t show up it doesn’t make any sense
  • Good but could be better

    Controller works well. Will occasionally experience some input lag that makes some games unplayable “COD Warzone Mobile”. Sticks also feel off and not as precise as say the backbone which is obvious given the Bluetooth connection of the Nomad vs direct connection from the backbone. App is good but could be better. The free service is very much appreciated however you cannot add certain games such as Star Wars Hunters and others which makes it sort of useless. Hopping Scuf comes out with an update soon on the app to fix the adding games feature and if possible a fix to the input lag which many users are experiencing due to its choice to go Bluetooth instead of direct connection.
  • Quite a few bugs, doesn’t recognize popular titles

    I get this is a new app but it is the only way to map buttons for the hardware. If they had a mapping button on it like most Scuff controllers then this would be a non issue.

    Changing the default mapping for when the app is off is vital as the application does not recognize veterans in the ARPG space like Honkai Impact 3rd but it does the turn based spinoff Honkai Rail Star? Which do you think needs a controller more? Or the same company’s new ARPG ZZZ … also a clutch controller game.

    Everytime I set default mapping it reverses the paddle mapping. Even reversing the paddle mapping on purpose doesn’t work!

    The main advantage this controller had over Razer Kishi 2 or Backbone One was the paddles and I cant map them correctly. Updates, please.
  • Awesome controller and awesome app. Just needs 1 thing.

    We need to have it add games that are already installed to the SCUF library.
  • I can not add all my games to the app

    Please allow us to add any game to the App Library. I have so many games that I play that are not in your selection. Please fix this and I will change my score to ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ that this app deserves.
  • Almost perfect!

    The app is gorgeous and does pretty much all the things a companion app like this should EXCEPT some features that would just elevate this app!

    - ability to add any game on your device to the in-app library
    - ability to add more game launchers into the app (steam link, Xbox cloud, etc.)
