Recommended Controllers
Everything below pairs over Bluetooth and works with iFly out of the box.
iFly supports MFi controllers, PlayStation DualSense and DualShock 4, Xbox Wireless controllers, and the Siri Remote on Apple TV. Touch controls are built in on iPhone and iPad, but a physical controller is the way Dreamcast games were meant to be played.
Our picks
- PlayStation DualSense →
Pairs over Bluetooth with iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. Great d-pad and analog feel for Dreamcast games.
- PlayStation DualShock 4 →
Cheaper than a DualSense and just as well supported by iOS. A solid budget option.
- Xbox Wireless Controller →
Excellent ergonomics and rock-solid Bluetooth pairing across iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.
- MFi gamepads →
Made-for-iPhone controllers, including clamp-on styles that turn an iPhone into a handheld.
Pairing
Put the controller in pairing mode, then connect it under Settings → Bluetooth on your iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV. iFly picks it up automatically — no in-app setup needed.
