I bought this controller for my husband but he has a tablet. The guy at best buy said the app should work the same on the tablet. Is this true?

It works with iOS devices. I used mine for the iPad 3, but the game controller has no settings for sensitivity for the joystick, so I returned mine. I wanted it to play Nova3, and it was horrible for aiming the gun with the joystick. It worked great for Asphalt 7.

This will work with iOS tablets and phones like iPads or iPhones only. Hope that helps!

Hey Amber - I know it works with all iOS devices. I use it on my iPad mostly, but also on my iPhone from time to time. Hope that helps! :)

Update: I tried E.Manns' guide but it still did not work. Then 3 days later I gave the controller another shot and it worked, so E.Manns' guide also fixed my problem. Thanks for giving us your insight E.Mann. I hope everyone's problem with this controller has also been resolved.

I have one and can use a 360 controller for that same reason. But this dock is kinda glitchy and if you want the real ezperience with no lag. I woukd recomend the real samsung dock as its higher quality.

I've not actually tried yet on this particular tablet, but it's an Android based system and I see no reason why they would not work. The app would probably be the best way to do it.

If you want to use Nes, SNES, gameboy, etc Emulators, there is a a "Moga Universal Driver" you can find on the Google playstore that works perfectly for that. just keep in mind though that the games that are "built in" to work with the controller (Moga Pivot) use separate drivers. Open and enable "Moga Universal Driver" when you want to use your emulators, and open and enable "Moga Pivot" otherwise.

There are problems with writing from Android 4.4.x devices to a USB stick. Reading the USB stick works ok on Android devices that support it (but needs an app). There are workarounds published on YouTube. The Total Commander app plus its TC USB Stick plugin is supposed to work, but I have not yet tried it. I am not familiar with your particular tablet.

I bought this product several months ago and tried it on my computer. The software is somewhat compatible but ultimately this controller is not meant for Windows PC. Your best bet would be to buy a brand-name Xbox controller from microsoft

It does work if you download "Gamepad Companion" or "Joystick Mapper." They can map the keyboard controls to the controller buttons. You can also customize the each button. I've used both of these apps and both of them work perfectly.

I can not answer for all the tablets or all the different versions of Android OS's, but I have tested it on my Nexus 7 tablet with an OTG and yes, it did work, I have only tried it with a few emulators and in most cases the D-pad worked but I had to configure the ABXY buttons to get them to work. I have used this adapter in windows and on my Macbook pro with no problems, it was worth buying! I hope this has helped. Edited 6/17/2014 After replying to this question, I got to thinking more about this, and I decided to try another experiment, I tried a couple of different usb game controllers, one was a wired xbox 360 controller and the other a cheap wired microsoft windows game controller, I could not get the 360 controller to work, I think because it wanted to pair with the tablet first before you can use it and the android os does not know how to pair like that, but the windows controller worked, so I believe you can use any windows usb wired game controller with just the otg and not need the snes adapter, if you prefer to use the snes pad you could just get one already wired for usb and save the money you would spend on a adapter. I only bought this adapter because I had a number of snes game pads laying around.

Have not been able to get it to work. Downloaded the app, but it appears that the app has it's own internal check to see if the tablet is "approved." There is an earlier version of the app and another version to be found on the internet that "bypasses" this check and that may work. Haven't tried it as one has to download it to your computer then sideload it to the tablet--and I didn't have the need to do it.

Yes that is correct. Be aware though that for some reason it may make your connection a little finicky dependent upon the device. For example USB drives may get weird errors, but a game pad controller will work fine. I am uncertain as to why that is.

Yes, it should work...I have the same controller...it worked for me...but I used the on the go cable. This should work still...they are the same, except the on the go has a cord.

I will be returning my tablet very soon. The order says the controller will ship May 29th at the earliest. To me the tablet is worthless without the controller.

Well as far as I have investigated, there's a problem. Im trying to smooth out a connection issue with my galaxy SIII, and two of these controllers. I can get them to connect, assign them a control 1 and control 2, but they act as the same controller. I kinda lost interest in messing with it. Far as a ipad, im not sure what your outcome will be. However I think its possible, though difficult to get them to cooperate.

Hey man, well only if the game is part of a gaming platform emulator such as: sega genesis, snes, n64, playstation, Nintendo ds, etc. My ipega controller works well with these emulators downloaded to my phone along with the roms that go with the platform. I havent tested the controller with direct download games from google play yet because im more of a retro gamer. But keep in mind you need to download ipega game center apk english version to your phone and go with the settings binding your phone with the app after binding it first with the bluetooth. Never lose the pass key that comes with the controller on the box. Hope this info is useful bro. Good luck.

I actually haven't tried that out, I can test it out in a bit.Update: I have tested it on Ubuntu 12.04. Nothing extra to do for the controller or adapter to be detected. I gave it a go on the zsnes emulator and configured the inputs and it worked out fine for every button. Played Super Mario World on it and everything responded like it would when I'm using windows. I have yet to try other games/programs on Ubuntu.
