The Backbone Pro is compatible with the most popular USB-C mobile devices from Apple, Samsung, Google, Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo, Huawei, Realme, and Motorola, including the all-new iPhone 18 series. The device's operating system must be iOS 17.3 or later for iPhone users and Android 10.0 or later for Android users. Lightning-type connectors (iPhone 14 and earlier) are **not** compatible over USB-C. However, you can connect a Lightning iPhone to Backbone Pro wirelessly over Bluetooth. Many features within the Backbone app (button mapping, controller profiles, etc.) are not available over Bluetooth. Do I need a subscription? Not at all! Backbone+ membership enhances your free Backbone app, and you don't need either to game with your Backbone controller!  Let's break it down: [**Backbone App**](https://playbackbone.com/app/) \- a free app with features like controller firmware updates, joystick calibration, and button remapping.  _We recommend you download this free app in order to keep your Backbone controller firmware updated._ [**Backbone+ Membership**](https://playbackbone.com/backbone-plus/) \- a premium subscription inside the Backbone app to manage all your games in one place, 20+ features unlocked, exclusive perks, personalized game recommendations, streaming directly to Twitch, and more. A Backbone+ subscription is NOT required to play games with your Backbone controller. If you are eligible for a free trial, it begins when you activate a Backbone+ trial subscription. You can choose to redeem your trial during setup or later. [This can be canceled at any time](https://help.backbone.com/hc/en-us/articles/13755549289623-How-do-I-cancel-my-Backbone-subscription-through-the-Backbone-App). See the difference between using the Backbone App with and without Backbone+ [here](https://playbackbone.com/backbone-plus/#:~:text=Unlock%20the%20full%20Backbone%20experience "Unlock full Backbone Experience"). To use your Backbone controller without using the Backbone App, just attach the controller to your device and open [any controller-compatible games](https://playbackbone.com/games/) you have downloaded to your device. Pricing and availability may vary by region. Backbone terms apply. Does Backbone Pro work with a phone case? Backbone Pro fits most phone cases. To make room for some cases, you may need to remove the adapters on your controller. Very thick or rugged cases may not fit, because a deep case lip around the charging port can stop the controller’s USB-C connector from plugging in fully. For the full list of phone cases that work with Backbone Pro, check out [this article](https://help.backbone.com/hc/en-us/articles/30568624762007). Can I use Backbone Pro with a tablet, computer, or TV? Yes. Backbone Pro connects wirelessly over Bluetooth to tablets, PCs, Macs, and other devices that support Bluetooth Low Energy controllers, including TVs with Bluetooth controller support. We call this FlowState. You can also connect Backbone Pro with a USB-C cable to the controller’s charging port. This is Play On Any Screen, and it works with devices such as an iPad, tablet, Mac, PC, or Chromebook, but not with TVs. The controller charges while you play. How does Backbone Pro compare to Backbone One? The Backbone Pro was designed to amplify the portable gaming experience, allowing players to reach their full potential from anywhere, without boundaries. While both the Backbone One and Backbone Pro are compatible with thousands of titles across supported platforms, there are a few key differences. - High-precision play with full-size joysticks - Enhanced ergonomic grips for greater comfort - 2 custom-function back buttons - Button remapping, joystick and trigger sensitivity adjustment - Ultra-quiet ABXY buttons - Wireless compatibility for seamless play on any screen What joysticks does Backbone Pro use, and is stick drift covered? Backbone Pro uses full-size ALPS joysticks and Hall effect triggers. Like every Backbone controller, it comes with a 1-year limited warranty, which covers joystick drift. What games can I play with Backbone Pro? Backbone offers high-quality gameplay for all your favorite games that support controllers. This includes the most popular titles like Call of Duty®: Mobile, Minecraft, and most Apple Arcade and Google Play Pass games. #### Mobile Games Want to dominate mobile games with your Backbone controller?
