This one is believed to function over Bluetooth with all Apple products, including the iPhone, iPad, and Mac PCs.
Meanwhile, a third concept depicts a controller with a traditional joystick layout. The enclosure would also include a small built-in monitor or perhaps a touch keypad to provide consumers additional game material.
This will function as a folding case with the buttons on the inside. The reports suggest that the second design discovered in Apple's patents is exclusive for the iPhone. According to the media report, this might work with both the iPad and the iPhone.Īlso Read | Apple likely working on 'USB-C power adapter', may charge 2 iPhones In one of the designs, the business depicts an attachment similar to the Nintendo Switch Joy Con, in which the controller is divided into two sections that can be connected to the device's side. The first patent was issued on March 30th, and the second on April 10th. The patents indicate that the project is still in its early phases, since the images hint to several sorts of controllers. According to the source, Apple has received patents for gaming controllers from both the US Patent and Trademark Office and the European Patent Office in the last two weeks. Patents discovered by various media indicate that the corporation may be planning to launch its own gaming controller. Should be easy enough to find, though.A recent patent application from Apple adds credence to the company's frequent assertions that it is developing its own game controller for the iPhone and iPad. Rather than risk any showing of bias, I just removed the appstore links for the apps. I imagine it might be a little awkward, but no less so than trying to do everything on your phone.Īddendum: I originally included links to the apps in question, but as a new user I can't post more than two links. That all said, have you considered using a virtual trackpad app for your phone? Something like Rowmote or TouchPad? This way, you could keep your left hand on the WASD, and just hold the phone in your hand and use your thumb to manipulate the trackpad, akin to an analog stick. Might be worth keeping an eye on, though I don't know how practical tilting your phone around on the train would be, assuming it ever comes out.
The developer posted a concept video showing him controlling Minecraft by tiling the iPhone to act as mouse input, but that was almost three months ago and the app hasn't been updated since. Joypad for iOS will almost do what you want, but doesn't have mouse support. You might have already looked into this, though I didn't see it mentioned by name so I'll throw it out here anyway.
