Backbone experience

It’s a great gaming experience for mobile games but I don’t think it should be 100$. If you plan on getting it don’t expect it to feel like if you were playing on console.

So good

Omg best decision I’ve ever made

Backbone

This app is really cool. I would highly recommend this to a friend.

Self screenshot

When I connect my iPhone to the backbone and connect the charger the phone starts to take screenshots , when I disconnect the charge it stops . It only happens when I connect to the backbone . Any solution to this problem

Amazing game

I think everybody should get the app I love it

True to Product

It's a very good product. It does what it says it does very well. I'm currently using the Gen 1, but I plan to buy the Gen 2 soon since they say it has improvements in all areas of the controller. Additionally, the adapters are now magnetic.

Best app

You’ll see how good it is

Problem

For some reason it won’t let me click on the sign in thing to sign into my Xbox to play the games and what not so I’m not sure what to do I’m getting really annoyed

PS Backbone

Doesn’t really work for cod or Roblox

Good product

This has been a very good product. I travel all over for work and this has me pass time way quicker. The only problem I have with this product is the connection to Xbox. It’s been very hard to connect backbone app and Xbox remote play. Other than that it’s been very good playing with it

Backbone

Backbone

Game Changer

Absolutely my favorite purchase of 2023

chat rooms

Did backbone remove the chatrooms for playstation, Xbox, cod, ect. ? I haven't seen it since i updated a few days ago

It turned into headphones😐

An day ago i set it up after the day it wouldn’t work and turned into headphones that i don’t know how to fix???

Cool

Satisfying to have and use love it

Warzone Mobile!!!

Yessir we finally almost there the wait is worth it.

Good but can improve

All that is needed is just a more stable connection system, and make it more mobile than it is

It’s ok

It’s ok the only thing about this is that it is a subscriptionbut it has a subscription

Help

Good app but it randomly takes screenshots

I am blown away

The app itself makes the experience way more enjoyable. And I am even more excited about the plus version.

Great controller but…

I can’t play off of my iPad like it was advertised. When you also go to record game content a big notification pops up that tell you to press this to stop recording and you can’t make it go away and it ruins the footage. One this get fixed I’ll rate 5 stars. Otherwise it’s a great controller.

The Backbone?

Backbone is a great way to game out your iCloud games with all your PS5 & XBOX games in your hands on the go! The backbone is also compatible with android devices and has good performance with gaming comes with a lot of other things.

BACKBOOOOOONNNNNEEEEEE

I have been waiting for this to become reality, and It’s finally here THANKS!! I now have access to my console and PC games any and everywhere!

Pretty sweet!

Didn’t expect to like it as well as I do but this thing device is a game changer for mobile gaming! Very responsive and the app is pretty good for it.

Game Compatibility

Just bought a PS backbone one for iOS today; game tested with it; expected a delay but was decent response. Users should definitely recalibrate all the controls while also expecting slight frame buffers in PS Remote Play. Also pretty disappointed that League of Legends: Wild Rift isn’t available for game compatibility either. But for the most part its a great handheld accessory.

Smh really 1 star but

They don’t advertise the 39$ a year but you don’t even have to use the app to remote play for Xbox or psn or even x cloud you can use the controller for free that’s why people get it

Audio for game pass failed

when a message is received the audio for HALO infinite just stops Restarted the app and the same result. That has been my only problem so far

Can’t connect

I can’t even connect to it it’s charged my phone is up to date and the app is help me out please

BackBone

This is Nice 👍🏾 Love it

Best controller EVER!!!

I highly recommend this controller to everyone. I couldn’t be happier it’s the absolute best.

This is ‘THE ONE’

10/10 feel. 10/10 design. 10/10 app display with an incredible amount of gaming diversity. To say this is great would be an understatement, and an insult.

Backbone review

Still need some modifications like being able to play more mobile games without having a console but I love it 👍

Black magic

I don’t know what kind of black magic this is but it’s amazing

Lame hardware

Button kinda gets stuck

Muy costoso.

Como posible que el aparato me costó 100 dólares. Ahora me toque pagar para utilizarlo por un año más. Es injusto.

This should not cost money.

Once upon a time asking for a reoccurring subscription for what amounts to a glorified barebones launcher on top of a $100 entry price would have been laughed out of existence. But alas, we currently live in the rent seekers paradise. The only reason I don’t give this app 1-star is because it actually does what it’s supposed to do and does it well. Unfortunately it doesn’t do all that much and is missing desirable features to justify any kind of reoccurring subscription. The app is basically

Only works for a couple of months

I got this for Christmas, not a full year has passed by and it does not connect anymore. The left joystick doesn’t move at all, the game moves if I move it with the dpad but the joystick itself ceased working. The subscription is crazy expensive, not worth it imo.

Unable to navigate and sign into certain features like Xbox

I am currently unable to sign into my Xbox due to the fact, I cannot use my phone to manually click on the link to type in into the box with the controller. Would love to know how to fix that or maybe I’m doing something wrong either way when I bought, this thing wasn’t very descriptive in the tutorial

New update.

It use to work great until the recent update. Now the play now and tap to play buttons do not let you use touchscreen on my phone to actually play.

Horrible update

I can’t sign into my Xbox account after the update. Every time I go to log in to my Xbox email it doesn’t let me touch the screen or the controller. Please fix waste of money.
