Easy peasy! Turn on your Xbox controller and hold the sync button until it starts flashing. On your phone, go to Bluetooth settings and select the controller from the list of available devices. Boom, you're ready to roll!
Press and hold the sync button on the controller until it blinks, then pair it in your phone's Bluetooth settings. Done!
I do this all the time for mobile gaming. Turn on your controller and press the sync button until it blinks. On your phone, go to Bluetooth settings, find 'Xbox Wireless Controller,' and tap to connect. Happy gaming!
If you're having trouble, make sure your controller firmware is updated. Connect it to an Xbox or a PC and update it through the Xbox Accessories app first. Then try syncing again.
