So, I realize that anybody can plug a ps4 controller into their phone with an acessory and play, but...

Without rooting your Android device, is it possible to use a PS4 controller over bluetooth?

I searched, and I stumbled upon this vid:

but I don't know how legitimate it is

Anybody here tried doing it?


Here's the app that supposedly let's use wirelessly connect your PS4 controller to your phone without rooting:

Also, in that page it says that it used a "USB BT CSR Dongle"

I have no idea what that is, though you can apparently find it here:

Ultra-Mini Bluetooth CSR 4.0 USB Dongle Adapter - Black - Free Shipping - DealExtreme


Anybody know what's up with that?

Thanks!
