How it works

    Connect the controller

    Plug it in with USB or pair it over Bluetooth.

    For privacy, browsers only reveal a controller after a button press.

  3. 3

    Test every input

    Buttons and triggers light up; sticks show live position, drift and a deadzone overlay.

  4. 4

    Check vibration

    Use Test vibration to confirm the rumble motors work, where the browser supports it.
