As of now, this is the only way to connect an Xbox One controller to the Mac. Xbox One wireless controllers also have a micro USB port on the top, so they’re relatively easy to connect to your Mac. In every other case, the Xbox control needs to be connected with a wire to work. We were not able to test the functionality for this post. Since that’s essentially a plug-and-play operation, we won’t cover that here. Those controls have the correct Bluetooth transmitter in them, and macOS will automatically support the connection. Microsoft will help you figure out which version you have. Wireless over USB doesn’t work, but strangely, Bluetooth does work, but only on controllers made after August 2016. The functionality has caused kernel panics since macOS El Capitan (10.11), and it had to be disabled to make the rest of the software usable.Īlso read: How to Set Up an Xbox One Controller in Ubuntu If you try to connect an Xbox controller wirelessly with its USB dongle, you won’t be able to establish a connection.
