Controllers For All is a new Cydia Tweak by cjori that lets you use your PS3 Dualshock controller with iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch games, making it a great alternative for other MFI controllers on the market.

Controllers for All - a brand new tweak that allows you to add iOS 7 game controller compatibility for your PS3 controller (more controllers support coming soon)!

Controllers for All already supports every game that's been update with iOS 7 controller support in mind, and does it with an extremely simple setup, one time pair using your computer and you're done! No other configurations ever needed again!

Controllers for All also turns your phone/tablet into a great video game console combined with an AirPlay capable device, see the demo video for such awesome video gaming setup!

Controllers for All works with all games that have been updated to work with MFi Controllers on iOS 7. The developer plans to expand the tweak to other bluetooth controllers as well, and while the Dualshock 4 (PS4) controller is not supported, a future update will add support for it.

To pair the controller, you must first connect both the PS3 controller and iOS device to your computer, install the SixPair tool and you're done. Pairing only needs to be done once.

You can grab Controller for All from the Cydia Store for just $1.99.

I can't get the controller to stop blinking. Sixaxis ps3 controller. Can anyone help? I've downloaded the controllers for all to ipad mini 1, sixaxistool to PC, connected both, made my ipad the master, restarted ipad, made settings correct in btstack and it says its connected but will not STOP BLINKING!!! How frustrating this is what I've been waiting for too.

I have somewhat the same problem, and have tried several different original ps3 controllers. However the controller stops blinking after about 10 seconds. The mirrored bt icon (on my iphone 5) also blinks a few times, but it just won't pair. Also tried reinstalling btstack and controllers4all, didn't help... I've read on other forums that several people have this same issue, but no solution yet(?)

It works. just turn off bluetooth and got to BTstack settings and check BTstack. It only looks for controller when you open a game. If ur controller is blinking just connect it back to a power supply then unplug it. Works great with strike team bravo but can't get it to work with MC4 which is why i got it in the first place. no it will not turn on ur ps3 once connected to iOS so your good on that. what i don't like is that for certain apps it tries to connect to the controller for no reason no matter what setting u have it on which is kind of annoying. like when i use cloud connect pro it tries to connect to the controller, y i don't know. all n all its gd n i think after they iron a few things out it will be much better...

I know you replied to my comment below and thanks about that. So once you pair the controller with iPad, it won't turn on PS3. That's good. Now, after playing games on iPad for a while, you want to pair the controller with PS3, then you just hook it up to PS3 using usb cable, correct? And then after that, if you want to go back to using controller on iPad, is it the initial pairing steps all over again?

diggy - January 20, 2014 at 4:41pm

help pls, i have pair with sixaxis pair tools, and when my iphone say press Ps button , y press and it's write connected but my ps3 controller Blink , she don"t find and stay to 1.

DarkKent - January 20, 2014 at 5:20pm

don't hold the ps button. just press it

Matio - January 20, 2014 at 2:51pm

What if you have a PS3 in the room when you want to use dualshock3 on iPad using this tweak? Will pushing PS button on dualshock 3 to pair it to iPad cause PS3 to turn on (which would be annoying)? If not, how do I go back and forth between using dualshock 3 on ps3 and on idevice?

Matio - January 20, 2014 at 4:01pm

If I read SHIBEY's comment right, it looks like pairing to ipad will work only while the game is running. The way it ideally works would be that, (after all the initial setup involved with this app is finished) if you don't have any game running on iPad and push PS3 button it should turn on PS3 and if a game is running on an iPad it should pair with iPad and leave PS3 alone. But I also know from having paired dualshock 3 with computer using MotioninJoy that it's not that easy to switch the bluetooth paring between different devices back and forth. It just doesn't work that clean. So can anyone tell me your experience in going back and forth between iPad and PS3 with this?

DarkKent - January 20, 2014 at 5:21pm

no it won't. one paired from the comp that will be then only thing its paired to. u have to re pair it back to ps with cable

Alex Leal - January 20, 2014 at 12:45pm

works on PS3 Controll generic?

Russ - January 20, 2014 at 11:10am

This does not work and i have had no reply from the developer when asking for help, I have followed all setup instructions. The Controller connects but will not work. When i press the PS Button it offers to disconnect only. Iphone 5s and Ipad mini

To help - January 20, 2014 at 10:32am

@Prince... To make it work, you must have the ps3 controller not blinking at all. DO NOT turn on your ios bluetooth in the iphone stock settings!!! Just leave it off and there should be NO bluetooth icon on the statusbar. Now, just fire up a game and you will see a notification after launching the game stating to press the ps button on your ps3 controller. Press it and that is it! You will be connected. Trust me...this tweak is definately worth the 1.99 vs buying a $100 MFi Controller

SHIBEY - January 20, 2014 at 10:23am

Also just fyi when you quit the app it will un sync, so ONLY sync's when you start a game

SHIBEY - January 20, 2014 at 10:20am

HOW TO SET UP CONTROLLERS FOR ALL. if you have this app and you have not got it working, then go to settings>controllers for all then E-mail pairing instructions, follow the correct one suited to you eg Mac, windows or linux, when you have done all that correctly, on your i device go to settings>BTstack and sellect BTstack, give it a min to configure, now open a game like sonic 2 works, and while the game is on, press the middle button on your PS3 remote and if you see it sync only 1 light will be on (as it should) now you should be all set.
