      *** Please read all instructions carefully. ***

      Not all devices are supported, therefore it is strongly recommended that you try the Sixaxis Compatibility Checker (available for free on Google Play) before purchasing this app.

      Finally the wait is over... The ultimate gaming experience awaits! Now you can play games on your phone the way they were meant to be played! Sixaxis Controller allows you to use the following controllers in many of your favourite games and applications:

      PlayStation 3:
      Sixaxis Controller
      DualShock® 3 Wireless Controller
      PlayStation® Move Navigation Controller

      PlayStation 4:
      DualShock® 4 Wireless Controller (If pairing on a PC, you must use SixaxisPairTool 0.3.0+)


      *** IMPORTANT ***
      - ROOT access is required!!!
      - Due to the way pairing is done with the controllers, you need to manually pair your controller with the PC utility 'SixaxisPairTool' (available on the website) and a mini-USB cable. Android 3.1+ users can also pair directly on their devices via USB.
      - It is highly recommended that you use an ORIGINAL controller. Many after market controllers will not work with this app. If you get a 'Client connected: 1' message, but the lights on your controller continue to flash, it is almost certainly not an original Sony controller.
      - The fake controllers that are most likely to work (though not guaranteed) are those made by Gasia. If you bought a fake that works but isn't made by Gasia, I'd love to hear from you so I can compile a list of known working controllers.
      - Be sure to read the instructions in the help menu carefully.

      Features:
      - Up to four Sixaxis, DualShock 3, DualShock 4 and Navigation controllers supported at once.
      - Support as a native gamepad in Android 3.1+ devices. Full support for analog sticks and analog triggers.
      - Keyboard emulation. Map all buttons and sticks to almost any key available in Android.
      - Mouse emulation. Configure a button to activate the mouse pointer on devices that support mice (most tablets, and many phones should work).
      - Touch emulation allows you to map buttons and analog sticks to the screen. Play all your favourite games with full analog support, even those without built-in controller support!

      Can't load profiles This apps pretty good, I had to flash to 5.1 to use it though. Also I can't edit profiles, when I try the app stops working. This makes it impossible to add new buttons to old profiles. I have to start from scratch which sucks. No update in almost a year...pretty sad.

      Awesome. I bought this to use it with remote play (xda all device version) because my only ps4 controller is going in for repair... And I'm very impressed with how stable this is. My only real complaint is that I need root, so I can only use it on my old phone and not my new one because I'm not rooting it(warranty). If you can find a way to do this without root with Bluetooth I'd be willing to pay for it too.

      Didn't work, (OPO CM12 Custom icons) I got the controller to pair with the compatibility checker but when I hit start on this one it crashes. EDIT: After turning off my custom icon pack it works. I'd really like that fixed then I can 5 star.

      Works great with one flaw For some reason, certain buttons become artificially held down after pressing and releasing them. This causes the input to get really weird for a second or two when playing a game and it always happens at the worst time!

      Sweet mother of God It works really well in my Note 4 and the Touch mapping thing really helps when I'm playing games that doesn't support game pad but has potential to do so like Swordingo. Big thumbs up for the devs! EDIT: Need Marshmallow support since many device are getting updated to it. I won't take stars away since I am a merciful God.

      One thing wrong When I first got the app everything worked then when I disconnected the controller, I tried to reconnect it the next day it said my connection timed out so I went to different apps and my connection was fine and days later it kept saying the same thing and I tried uninstalling it the reinstalling it it didn't work either so fix this

      Ps4 controller Had problems connecting my controller to my rooted tablet, so I decided to pay the $2-3, because I had a 9hr fight and had all the emulators. Makes gaming a breeze, besides the lil tweeking for each mode this is a must.. I needed use Pc before hand, used YouTube to sort out everything..I'm on tab s, 4.4.2 no problem, haters don't know how use properly.

      Well... I have used this app for over 3 years without incident. Paid for it, love it. Since updated to Marshmallow however it refuses to work. 'unable to configure bluetooth' is all I get. I would love to be able to continue using FPSE with this App. I specifically bought a PS3 controller just to use with this app. I am happy to purchase the app again, I just would love it to run on Marshmallow

      Doesn't work on my Nexus 5X (I assume it's a marshmallow issue). Says can't load HCI library and fails to configure Bluetooth when I start it. I'd avoid this app if you're on Android 6+.

      Great for Android 5 and lower I love this app and I use it quite a bit for work, but I've been unable to update my tablet's OS because this app hasn't been updated to be compatible with Marshmallow. The operating system has been available for quite some time, what's the delay?

      Used to work, but it seems it hasn't been updated in a while, and most likely won't be anytime soon. I checked reddit after sending an email to the developer and about a month ago a thread talking about this was posted, with no one able to answer a wireless solution to connect our DualShock controllers. So, it seems wired is the only way we can do that now. Unfortunate. I may update this review if the dev gets back to me.

      No 8-way D-Pad for touch emulation I love this app, but not having full 8-way D-Pad support really limits the use of touch emulation. When are you going to get around to adding this? I first requested this feature quite a long time ago, and I even gave reasons why OTHER users would appreciate it. I want to give you 5 STARS, but I'm not doing that until this is fixed.

      My fault!! Nexus 7 I was way too excited when I learned about this app from a video I was watching and downloaded it asap. I should of downloaded the compatible checker first. Doesn't work for my first gen ps4 controller on my Nexus 7. The rating is not for the app but for not working on my ps4 controller. Hope this is resolved soon.

      Excellent app Been using this app for about 2 1/2 years now. This app is a power house!!!! WRITTEN IMMACULATELY!!!! Excellent job dev!!!! Everything was excellent until my samsung galaxy note 4 got the 5.0 update, now I get the segmentation error like the others have gotten. I hope this will be fixed very soon cause I'm VERY addicted to MC4+SIXAXIS. I will change my review to 5 stars as soon as the problem is fixed!!!! Edit: fixed 5 stars now.

      Unable to load existing touch emulation profiles if I want to add or change something, Sixaxis app will stop responding and crash.This in turn requires me to completely rebuild a touch emulation profile from scratch; fine tuning profiles and complex control schemes are out of the question. I consider the functionality of Sixaxis to be totally compromised because of this standing issue. I'm putting in some serious work to find a solution, but nothing so far. I couldn't help but notice some other users have this same problem.
