You can now remap Xbox controllers on iOS, thanks to iOS 14.5
iOS 14.5 started rolling out earlier this week. The update brings several new features, including Face ID with Apple Watch, AirTag support, and updates to Siri. In addition to all of the headline features, the update brings some new customization options for connected Xbox controllers. You should be able to customize settings for other connected controllers as well, though we are still testing that out.
Once you update to iOS 14.5, you’ll be able to remap the buttons of your Xbox controller on a per-app basis. You can also adjust feedback settings, disable screenshots, and disable video clips. These features were part of the iOS 14.5 public beta and have now made their way to everyone.
Our sister site iMore outlines these new options in its guide on how to use an Xbox One or Series X controller with iPhone or iPad.
