See, the Stadia controller, for some, is a masterclass in controller design. For others, it\u2019s just a nice controller but they don\u2019t want it to go to waste and become a paperweight.<br \/>\nAnd without proper wireless support, that\u2019s sort of what it becomes. The fix for this, is of course to add support for Bluetooth, so the Stadia controller can be used with any platform that accepts HID Bluetooth controller connections. Which is mostly anything these days. Android, Windows, iOS, Mac etc. Luckily, it looks like Google is going to do right by its consumers after all, and add that support to the controller soon.<br \/>\nThe Stadia controller gets Bluetooth support next week<br \/>\nThose waiting to learn if or when the Stadia controller would get support for Bluetooth don\u2019t have to wait much longer. Google has confirmed today in a Stadia forum post that the support is arriving next week. It\u2019ll be available in the form of a self-serve tool according to Community Manager Dan From Google. Which means users will get access to a tool that they will have to use to unlock the Bluetooth support.<br \/>\nBasically, you\u2019ll probably have to plug in the controller using a USB-C cable and run the tool. Which will do its thing and when it\u2019s done, Bluetooth support should be enabled. Google doesn\u2019t mention the exact date that this tool will become available to consumers. But it does say next week and that it will share more information about it closer to the arrival date. So be on the lookout for more details sometime from Monday onwards.<br \/>\nFor Stadia fans this is likely to be a bittersweet moment. The long sought after Bluetooth support is finally, officially coming. But Stadia itself will also probably be gone by the time it arrives. In the meantime, don\u2019t forget to transfer your Stadia saves if you haven\u2019t already done so.<br \/>\nThe post Google is giving the Stadia controller a new feature soon appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Stadia-Controller-2.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Google announced the Stadia shutdown, fans of the service were left disappointed, but not just about the service going [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":11269,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11268","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bez-kategorii"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11268","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11268"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11268\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11270,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11268\/revisions\/11270"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11269"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11268"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11268"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11268"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
