FAQs
Will this work with my phone case?
In most cases, no. The Backbone One is a form-fitting controller for your phone and to be a precision input device, it has to firmly hold on to your phone. As a result, you will need to remove other phone attachments (especially the protective cases that change the dimensions of your phone significantly).
We designed the Backbone One to avoid compromising on gameplay at all costs. We’re so confident in the improved experience of playing mobile games that Backbone One delivers, that we think players will be happy to remove their cases to enjoy Backbone’s benefits.
Do I need to own an Xbox, PlayStation, or PC to use the Backbone One?
Nope! A console or computer is only required to take advantage of remote play apps offered by Xbox, PlayStation, and Steam.
Backbone One unlocks a world of possibilities for all types of gameplay experiences. Between the App Store, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate cloud streaming, and Nvidia GeForce Now there are thousands of high quality games available to play.
Check out the Platforms page to learn more.
Can I use the Backbone One as a controller for my iPad, Mac, or PC?
Yes, you can use the Play On Any Screen feature from within the Backbone app to use your Backbone One with any supported iPad, Mac, or PC. No need to carry around another controller!
Is the Backbone app required to use the Backbone One?
The Backbone app is not required for use of the Backbone One as a controller. However, the Backbone app offers a rich, community-driven experience that we’re sure you’ll love!
More information on the Backbone app’s features can be found here.
Can the Backbone One work with Bluetooth?

Will it affect my screen protector?
