The app also gives you a way to browse other games that support controllers without having to jump to the App Store. Since iOS doesn't have any way to navigate through your games folder with a controller, Backbone's app adds a speedy way to switch between games without having to pull your hands off the controller. In addition to a killer controller, the Backbone One also comes with a nice app where you can sift through all your games in one place, browse recommendations for other games to try, manage your recordings, and chat with other Backbone users. Rather than feeling like unnecessary bloatware, Backbone's app feels like a crucial part of bringing the console experience to your phone. There's two ports on the bottom of the controllers: The left side houses a 3.5mm headphone jack, while the right side has a Lightning port so you can charge your phone while you play (especially handy if your game of choice is a major battery-drainer). The controls themselves feel great, too: Joysticks are smooth and responsive and the buttons have a satisfying click to them without feeling stiff.īackbone has also included some unique buttons that allow you to record gameplay and open the Backbone app (more on that later). Throughout a week of testing I didn't have any issues with my phone slipping out, regardless of what angle I held the controller. The controller itself is sturdy and will keep your phone safely secured in its grip. It's worth noting, though, that you'll have to take your phone out of its case before sliding it into the One. Once you've connected your phone to the Backbone's dock connector, the left side of the controller can slide back to the edge of your phone to hold it snugly. The two rectangles are connected by two pieces of plastic that slide out to make enough space for your phone. The Backbone One consists of two Joy-Con-like rounded rectangles which house traditional gaming controls (a joystick, D-pad, four lettered buttons, and shoulder and trigger buttons) as well as some Backbone-specific functions.
