Frequently Asked Questions

What controllers are supported?
Any USB or Bluetooth controller that your OS recognises: Xbox (360, One, Series X/S), PlayStation (DualShock 4, DualSense), Nintendo Switch Pro, and most generic HID gamepads.
My controller is not detected — what should I do?
Make sure the browser window is focused (click on it), then press any button on the controller. Browsers require a button press to register a gamepad. Also try Chrome or Edge for best compatibility.
Can I test vibration / rumble?
Yes — click "Test Rumble". Note that vibration requires Chrome or Edge and a controller that supports the Gamepad Haptics API (Xbox and DualSense work well).
What is the dead zone?
The dead zone is a range around zero where stick/trigger input is ignored. This prevents drift. Adjust the slider to match your controller's natural drift level.
What is polling rate?
Polling rate (Hz) is how many times per second the browser reads your controller's state. A higher rate means more responsive input. Most browsers cap this at ~60 Hz.
