Ratings and reviews

Useless. There is absolutely zero reason this app should need GPS Location access, but it will not work unless given that permission, which isn't happening. The fact that it demands access means that the "no data collected" is a lie and this is is just spyware. Can't setup the Micro without the app, so it's useless. Why TF can't I set it up using Windows like their other controllers? It pairs just fine, but bad mapping. Guess I'll either be sending it back or doing a charge back. Sad.

Needs instructions. I don't give location permissions to just any app that asks for it, but apparently they're required for basic functionality. The app should tell you this instead of appearing to do nothing. Once I found that out it was easy to connect to my controller. I was very disappointed to see that I couldn't program button combinations, for example R+A, to have holding R change what A does.

The app is completely useless. Pixel 7 and Micro. I've tried every possible combination: S, D, and K mode each with the controller paired, unpaired, and in pairing mode. Power cycled the controller between attempts. Force stopped the app, and even rebooted the phone. None see the controller. Retried with another couple, older Android devices, still nothing.
