You can turn your iPhone into a joystick using dedicated apps like Monect PC Remote or Remote Gamepad to control a PC, official apps like PS Remote Play for PlayStation, or built-in iOS features like AssistiveTouch for accessibility; the most common method involves installing companion software on your computer and an app on your iPhone, connecting them via Wi-Fi to mirror controller inputs.
Install PC Software: Download and install the server/host program (e.g., Monect, Remote Gamepad) on your Windows PC.
Install Phone App: Search for the companion app (e.g., “Monect PC Remote,” “Remote Gamepad”) on the App Store and install it on your iPhone.
Connect: Ensure both your iPhone and PC are on the same Wi-Fi network, launch the app on both devices, and connect them.
Select Layout: In the app, choose a controller layout (like an Xbox 360 controller) to display on your phone screen
