Completely useless

This app is simply awful. The whole point of using this app is to map the buttons freely and create macros. These are all functions available in version 1. You thought this app would be better, but nope! None of these functions is available. It makes no sense to use those controllers and this app now.

Trash doesn’t work

Won’t detect ultimate controller

Just crashes

This app is kinda horrible. You can’t map any buttons which is the main perk of this controller. Also whenever I open vibration settings it just full on crashes.

Remember to update firmware, lets you use the controller to its fullest

I was worried when I saw other reviews of the app, I thought I would have to plug my 8bitdo pro 3 into my pc when ever I wanted to make changes to the button config, so this app works fully as intended. Didn’t experience crashes or any issues at all, not saying they don’t exist. I have a feeling some people come to this app before installing the software to update the controllers firmware, which has led to issues. But as a customer who follows instructions it has worked perfectly! Can’t recommend enough.

Simply does not work on the Ultimate 2 controller

It connects but never updates the changes. The PC app works fine.

Ultimate 2 bluetooth isnt pairing

When I use the controller regularly its great but when I try to access the software, it doesn’t get recognized pr paired.

64 2.4

Won’t update dongle on the 64 2.4 controller. 8bitdo support website says version 1.77 is available but it doesn’t show on app.

exetremly buggy!

Always crashes when switched to vibration tab.
Unable to edit macros.

Doesn’t support ultimate 2 wireless controller

Doesn’t support ultimate 2 wireless controller, supports the bluetooth version which I opted not to get due to compatibility issues with my other devices. Can’t rebind as I don’t have a windows computer and this app is missing major devices in their product line.

Crashes on startup

Crashes on startup, reinstall does nothing

Don’t just DONT

It will brick your device , I thought I could use this app for updates and when try and connect it to my switch it doesn’t let me. It was working fine before I connected to my phone.

Broken and missing functionality

You cannot use this software to update controller firmware, nor does rebinding the extra buttons work at all. After binding the back buttons and extra shoulder buttons, they don’t actually do anything when attempting to use the controller on my Switch 2. The software also can not be used to create macros.

You can’t save button changes

What’s the point of this app if there is mo ability to save button configurations. Did you even use the app once you created it?

Missing inputs

Why does my “Ultimate Mobile Gaming Controller” have back paddle buttons yet this app doesn’t let you send M1 and M2 signals to iOS that are clearly defined in the controller SDK? And they are so obviously visible in iOS controller settings. 8BitDo just says “nah, best I can do is let the back paddles copy another input”. This is made even worse by the fact that that iOS hijacks the “back/select/view” button. You know, the one that’s used by 90% of games for stuff like inventory, maps, settings. Not possible. Thanks for nothing.

It won’t even pick up my Ultimate 2 wireless controller.

Disappointed.

The V1 or V2 app does not detect the Ultimate 2 wireless controller even when it’s already paired to the iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth. I was hoping to be able to remap buttons on the fly when traveling and don’t have access to a computer.

Why does it only support a limited number of 8bitdo controllers?

Why are the ios options so limited? My SN30 connects to my ipad just fine, but I’m not allowed to remap it unless I own a desktop computer? What the heck?? Why isn’t there a “nintendo” style control scheme in the base controller options like every other controller out there. Seriously this makes zero sense. Will never buy 8bitdo again.

No macro?

Come on

Trash app

Not compatible for sn30pro mapping for iOS

Very Buggy

I see what they were trying to do here, but There are a LOT of bugs when trying to customize my Ultimate 2 Bluetooth controller. Sliders don’t work and glitch out (I had a trigger zone stuck on “2” and had to fiddle with it for 15 minutes to reset it to 0 because it wouldn’t move to the right) I also couldn’t customize the RGB lighting, even though I finally got it where I like (with the wonky sliders) it never saved to the controller. Needs a lot of work.

Useless

Would be better if I can use this to program macros and jump back
Into my game. Otherwise, no point and I’d have to plug in to the computer every time
