General Info

A variety of gamepads are confirmed to work on Afterplay.io. For most instances, X-input mode should work fine, however iOS seems to require controllers be in D-input mode. Please refer to your controller's manual for instructions on how to adjust this setting, if it is a controller that has adjustable input modes.

It should also be noted that if you have a "pro gaming" controller that has mappable non-standard buttons or paddles, these will not be recognized by Afterplay unless you map them first to some other standard computer input function such as a keyboard keypress and then configure Afterplay to use those inputs for something.

If you would like to contribute to this page, head to our and report your working controllers in the controllers channel.
