How to Connect PS4 Controller to Call of Duty Mobile

Playing Call of Duty Mobile is a fantastic way to get your CoD fix on the go, but let's be honest, touchscreen controls can be a bit clumsy, especially when you're in a heated firefight. I remember one time I was in the final circle, just me and one other player, and my sweaty thumbs completely slipped, costing me the win. It was after that humbling experience that I decided to connect my PS4 controller, and it was a total game-changer. If you're looking to up your game and play like a pro, connecting a controller is the way to go.

The good news is that connecting your PS4 controller to Call of Duty Mobile is surprisingly simple. You don't need any special apps or complicated workarounds; the game has built-in controller support. This means you can get set up and start dominating the competition in just a few minutes.

Connecting Your PS4 Controller

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to connect your PS4 controller to your mobile device to play Call of Duty Mobile:

1. Put your controller in pairing mode: On your PS4 controller, press and hold the 'Share' and 'PS' buttons at the same time. You'll know it's in pairing mode when the light bar on the back of the controller starts flashing.

2. Enable Bluetooth on your phone: Go into your phone's settings and turn on Bluetooth.

3. Pair the controller: In your Bluetooth settings, you should see "DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controller" appear in the list of available devices. Tap on it to pair it with your phone.

4. Open Call of Duty Mobile: Once the controller is paired, launch the Call of Duty Mobile app.

5. Enable controller support in settings: In the game's main menu, tap on the settings icon (the little gear). Go to the "Controller" tab and make sure that "Controller Support" is enabled.

That's it! You're now ready to play Call of Duty Mobile with your PS4 controller. I find that using a controller makes a huge difference, especially when it comes to aiming and movement. My accuracy has improved significantly, and I'm able to react much faster in close-quarters combat. It feels much more like playing on a console, which is a huge plus for me.
