Playing games on your smartphone is one of the best ways to entertain yourself. However, with some games<\/a> it can be really hard to play when you’re just tapping on a screen. Fortunately, it’s possible to sync up a traditional controller. That’s where it’s nice to connect your Nintendo Switch Pro Controller and get playing on the best gaming phones<\/a>. By the way, the Playstation 4 controller<\/a> as well as the Xbox One controller<\/a> are also compatible with Android devices, if you’d prefer to use one of those.<\/p>\n Note:<\/strong> You will only be able to use a Pro Controller if your phone is running Android 10 and if the game you’re playing supports controllers. Additionally, the process for syncing the controller with your phone will be different from one phone to the next.<\/p>\n Hold down the sync button<\/strong> on the top of the Pro Controller until the buttons on the bottom start flashing.<\/p>\n Select Connected devices<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The Pro Controller should show up in the list of Available devices.
