Frequently Asked Questions

What is Joystick Drift?

Drift occurs when the controller registers movement without touching the joystick. It is caused by wear on the internal potentiometers, which send a false electrical signal in a constant direction.

How can I fix drift with software?

If the drift is mild, you can configure a larger "Dead Zone" (Deadzone) in your game settings. This ignores small joystick movements in the center.

Is it compatible with PS5, Xbox and Switch controllers?

Yes. Our tool uses the standard Gamepad API from modern browsers, which detects almost any controller connected via USB or Bluetooth, including DualSense, DualShock 4 and Xbox Controllers.

Why doesn't the browser detect my controller?

For security, browsers only enable the gamepad after the first button press. If it doesn't appear, press any button (like A or X) and make sure you're not in strict incognito mode.
