### 3/5 — What happened?

*2026-05-12*

This controller is a SOLID option for mobile gameplay. I have used a Backbone Pro and it didn’t have the controller “feel” I was looking for and their app stinks. Though the Backbone is direct connect and Bluetooth I find its user experience is based on either you want a Bluetooth or direct connection. We need to either have recommendation games removed or updated. I mean we have The Division mobile, Diablo Immortal mobile, and Destiny rising! 3 near to console adaptations. This controller should be updated with the times.

### 3/5 — Update games please!

*2025-11-08, version 1.3.0*

The games list inside the app for mapping is out of date. We need more game options like Metalstorm. and Warframe.many more pl ty

### 3/5 — Manette incroyable mais app qui laisse à désirer…

*2025-05-07*

Tout est dans le titre… 

Le potentiel de l’app est monstrueux mais il n’est pas exploité. Beaucoup trop de jeux sont manquants que ça soit des jeux App Store ou Game Pass, c’est très dommage que le launcher ne soit pas complet…

### 3/5 — 명조 게임 실행 시 문제

*2025-03-07*

타 게임패드는 인식이 되는데 scuf는 인식이 되지 않습니다.

### 3/5 — Application à moitié intéressante.

*2025-03-07*

La manette est très bonne, elle mérite ses cinq étoiles. 
Par contre, l’application, c’est moins bon. Son véritable intérêt, c’est qu’elle permet d’affiner les réglages de la manette. Pour le reste, il y a un hub qui pourrait être très cool si il prenait en compte tous les jeux. Malheureusement, des jeux sont là, d’autres pas mais presque aléatoirement. 

Un exemple : GTA S.A sur l’Apple Store, pris en compte par l’app; GTA S.A Définitive Edition sur l’Apple Store aussi, pas pris en compte. Dans les 2 cas, la manette fonctionne mais pourquoi le deuxième jeu n’est pas disponible dans l’application ? 
Il y a plein d’exemples comme celui-là.

### 3/5 — Bought them all. This app is the worst.

*2025-02-10*

Tried the SCUF Nomad, Razer Kishi, and The Backbone. The Nomad is directly in the Middle, because the controller is better than both, but the app is also worse than both. I can’t tell when the last time the games on the app were actually on Gamepass. It feels like it’s literally the Gamepass library from 2022. My biggest reason this is getting 3 stars is the Nomad Controller itself. Not to be someone who has a lot of complaints but you can’t even launch the Home Screen of Cloud Gaming. You have to choose one of the outdated games and hope that it is actually on there. Because it might load cloud gaming and tell you that the game was removed years ago. If we could add our own applications to the nomad handler that would be ideal. Apple Arcade works perfectly with Nomad mostly. But Xbox Cloud gaming and PS Remote Play are severely outdated and lacking. Especially Xbox since the standard app for cloud gaming seems to be eons ahead of the one nomad used.

### 3/5 — Gud

*2024-12-30*

I like the app but it needs more.  The list of curated games is very incomplete. Allow us to add any game. Also you have to have GeForce now! Where is it? If it at least had that I’d probably give it five stars. The controller itself has a great feel and heft, unlike my Backbone. But right now the Backbone does more of what I want, which is to be able to play my Steam library on the go on GeForce Now.

### 2/5 — App Store games limited

*2024-12-18*

Talk are missing so many games with controller support I got this to play bloodstrike and star wars hunter but both of the games aren’t in your store you should be able to add any controller support game how y’all have warzone and no bloodstrike n there the same game genuinely confused on why yall did it like this  is a restriction on what we can and can’t play with it and that’s not how yall showed it off either fix this asap plz its the resin im not useing it rn

### 2/5 — Games

*2024-12-11*

I’m not trying to make anything of it, backbone lets me play the new cod bo6 on my Xbox cloud gaming. scuf does not even show it on Xbox gaming pass and when I search for it, it won’t come up…. Why is that?

### 3/5 — Input lag

*2024-11-11*

It works okay, but the occurrence of input lag is very often and terrible. It makes my game unplayable and I end up just having to connect an actual controller to my phone.

### 4/5 — Great controller. Bluetooth connectivity is lacking

*2024-10-05*

The app is fine. Although adding games to the app should be easier. Corsair take note of how backbone allows you to add games to their app. The feel of this controller is solid. The thumb sticks feel great compared to the backbone.

### 1/5 — Who TH wrote this

*2026-06-18, version 1.3.0*

App connects, says needs update and then disconnects. Did anyone test this flaming trash ?

### 1/5 — Needs DELTA FORCE MOBILE

*2026-02-01*

I bought this controller to play 1 game specifically and it’s not available, despite being probably the biggest game in China and very popular globally. Not to mention it’s FREE TO PLAY. PLEASE ADD DELTA FORCE MOBILE TO YOUR LAUNCHER!! I’ll change my review if/when you do.

### 1/5 — Does not work with most games. They don’t support the app

*2025-12-13*

This app is pretty useless

### 1/5 — 명조 플레이 안됨

*2025-05-29*

구매하실분은 참고하세요

### 1/5 — Fix app icons

*2025-04-21, version 1.3.0*

Whenever I add a new game to the  SCUF app the games icon appears blank with no app icon art. Please fix

### 1/5 — Ist eine Enttäuschung.

*2025-01-26*

Die App unterstützt die Xbox Cloud Game aber nur alte Spiele, die neuen spiele sind nicht drin und wenn ich auf spiele die ich schon gekauft habe starten möchte weil die ja auch cloud Game unterstützen. Dann will er das ich die Xbox App herunterladen soll, das er mich danach weiter leitet auf die Xbox App wo keine Xbox cloud Game auf Apple Geräten unterstützt wird. Man merkt sehr schnell dass SCUF nur ein Controller Hersteller ist und kein Dienstleister. Danke für nichts 👎🏻

### 1/5 — Input lag - injouable - inacceptable

*2024-12-29*

Il y a un input lag qui survient de systématiquement de manière aléatoire ou est présent en permanence. C’est un peu mieux sans les AirPod Pro mais ce n’est pas viable quand même. C’est inacceptable à 110€ la manette. Je vais retourner la manette. Je m’attendais à beaucoup mieux de la part de cette marque. A fuir.

### 1/5 — Needs a crucial update

*2024-11-13*

Love the controller feel and functionality, but for petes sake let us add any app so that we don’t have to work around this. War Robots, Brawl Stars, Mech Arena all work with your controller, but cant add them to the app list for some reason. Also, as others have stated there is a very slight input lag, that Im sure could be updated. Ive used regular gaming controllers via bluetooth that don’t lag this much. Overall a 4/5 but a few updates could knock BackBone off their high horse.

### 1/5 — Laggy controller.

*2024-08-27*

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

### 2/5 — Bought them all. Best Controller, Worst App.

*2025-03-03*

Tried the SCUF Nomad, Razer Kishi, and The Backbone. The Nomad is directly in the Middle, because the controller is better than both, but the app is also worse than both. I can’t tell when the last time the games on the app were actually on Gamepass. It feels like it’s literally the Gamepass library from 2022.

### 5/5 — Nice app to combine Apple Arcade, emulators , PSP and remote play into one centralized location

*2026-02-08*

A free app with lot of customization available for scuff nomad mobile controller.  The app lets me combine all my PS5 Remote Play games, emulators, and PSP games in one place, which makes launching and managing games incredibly convenient

### 5/5 — Extrêmement bon

*2025-01-26*

L’appli tout comme la manette sont extrêmement bon, néanmoins n’installer pas Minecraft, après l’avoir installé, l’app ne semble plus du tout fonctionner, il m’est impossible de la lancer.

### 5/5 — Great controller

*2025-01-10*

Great software too

### 4/5 — This app needs to be updated and optimized. Thank you.

*2026-05-01*

Dear SCUF Nomad Companion App Development Team,
Hello! I am very glad to be using your brand's Nomad controller. However, during my usage, I noticed that the last update for this app was over a year ago, which makes me quite disappointed—it feels as though you have abandoned this product and its app.
There are still some issues with this app that I hope can be improved.
First, as a game launcher, its app icon display functionality is very limited. When importing an external game that your team hasn't updated into the game library in time, the app can only show a dull gray image with no option to edit it. Furthermore, your updates to the game library are very limited—a large number of games released in the past one to two years are missing from your preset "All Games" list. As a result, when many players are playing newer games, they are met with a row of dull gray images, which clearly defeats the purpose and fun of having a game launcher.
Second, there is a noticeable delay of nearly one second or more when double-clicking the SCUF icon button. Often, players want to capture a screenshot in an instant, but by the time this one-second-plus delay passes, the moment they wanted to preserve may already be gone.
Finally, this controller itself is excellent, but the customization options for its curve settings are far too limited—there are only four preset modes to choose from. If users could freely adjust the curve paths, this would be a perfect mobile controller.
These are the three most critical issues. If you could read this feedback and make some improvements, we would be extremely grateful, and will continue to use this controller and purchase and use more SCUF controllers. Thank you!

### 4/5 — An sich okay…

*2025-12-31*

… aber es fehlen echt ein Haufen Spiele. Sowohl Arcade Spiele als auch Kauf-Games. Bitte nachbessern!

### 4/5 — Good app but…

*2025-05-25*

It’s a good app, a lot more clearer and easier to navigate than backbone. Also doesn’t cost anything but the nomad controller is very laggy.

### 4/5 — Angenehmes Zocken

*2025-04-30*

Die Belegungen und Features sind ne 10/10 grade für Mobile. Was mich stört, ist dass jedes Spiel flüssig läuft ohne Probleme zu haben, aber CoD Mobile so massiv Input Delay hat, dass es unspielbar ist mit dem Nomad

### 4/5 — 日本語に対応してほしい

*2024-12-16*

機能は問題ないですが、言葉が分からないと使いこなせない

### 4/5 — Ganz gut

*2024-12-16*

Die App an sich ganz in Ordnung, würde es zusätzlich für gut befinden wenn man eigne Apps in die Spielefavoriten anlegen kann sowie den Akkustand in der batteriewidget angezeigt bekommt.

### 4/5 — Works well

*2024-10-17*

App itself works well for remapping controls and whatnot but the game overview needs work. A lot of the games I play don’t show up. Doesn’t even show Resident Evil Village as an option in the App Store and that’s been there a while. Controller still works with the game though so that’s fine.

Controller itself is a 5/5 though. Quality is impressive and very comfortable to hold. Control scheme is a bit different but not bad after you get used to it. Love the back paddles too. Wish apex mobile was still a thing with this controller.
