Prodigy Girl Gaming I’ve had the same controller and same Android charger for awhile and it always worked on my PS4 so when my controller wouldn’t charge, I tried everything and nothing worked. Then I went to Walmart and got a strong cord and it worked
I was so frustrated because I read so many "solutions" online and nothing worked, it kept recognizing my controller as an "audio device". I stumbled upon your video and... IT WORKED! Thanks!
Omg thnak you man. My friend from north korea came to play some black op 3 and his controller did not connect, but then I found this video and it help me and him. love you from south korea
EVERYONE! Go to Devices and then bluetooth, Then go onto the controller that doesnt work and hold share and home button and the same time. A few seconds later a new device dhould pop up saying the name of the controller and click on it. Register the controller and play!
Had my ps4 for about 3 ish years now and only just got a new controller today it’s the limited edition one for the new game that has came out god of war and this is my first time connecting a new controller to my ps4 thanks this really helped me out
I purchased a new controller this week, had struggles to connect to the ps4, asked my mate who then found your video on TH-cam and sent it to me, watched the video twice, took your advice and it worked :) Thanks pal :)
thanks bro, i’ve stolen so many ps4 controllers, i now know the ones i smashed weren’t useless but i’m glad i did some research after i got this heaps good red and white one
Had this issue and this tutorial helped tremendously. I had bought my husband a new controller at Walmart because the old one stopped working. Our two boys played on it often as well until they got their Xbox and a PS4 for themselves. Thankfully now we have controllers for both ps4’s functioning well and I’ll be getting more to add for extra players when needed for gaming with family/friends. Appreciate it very much! Sincerely, The Duck Family in Georgia! 🍑 🇺🇸
OMG I tried everything and looked everywhere to figure how to set up my new controller and was going crazy that I couldn't figure it out. Not even PlayStation could help. I found your video and what do you know.....problem solved! Thanks for the help!
Just plug in your controller into your ps4 the hold down the “share” button and the ps4 middle button at the same time and it will connect. You’re Welcome
After weeding through so many videos and blog posts NOBODY could just show me this! Everybody was saying the same 3 things and nothing was working and I was getting completely frustrated, but you have helped me immensely and I appreciate your video, friend!
Thank you! I bought a used PS4 and assumed the used controller was dead because I connected a new one first. I purchased another one, so I would have two working ones. When that new one didn’t work, I found your video - and now I have three usable ones!
Oohhhh you're the best! It worked!!!! You should see how happy my boys were when the connection to the new controller worked. They have been struggling to add their second controller for days now and all we needed was just a simple, straightforward video like this showing us what to do. Amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this video!
Cheers mate, accidentally broke my original controller, still worked properly but some buttons were broken/not registering commands. Purchased a second controller and this video helped a lot when I was stuck with pairing up my new one. Good stuff! :)
yes it works thx so much ive been spending hours triying to find out how to do this it took forever then i saw your vid and it worked the first try thx so much subbed and left a like
Hey man thanks for this video it really helped I also had the problem on my old controller where the sprint wouldn’t always work but once again thank you for making this video
Thanks so much for this video mate, it was driving me crazy trying to figure this out. For such a basic process, there is surprisingly little information online regarding how to do this.
I went over my buddy house and connected to his ps4 then came home and could not connect to my ps4. I call him and told him to go to his Bluetooth settings and turn me off and bam my controller came right on
Question: my controller's charge port is broken. I can't charge it with a cable. So I bought a charging ext dock instead of spending 60$ for a completely new controller. It worked for awhile until I synced my controller onto my tablet to play cod mobile. Now I can no longer sync it to my ps4 and I can't use a cable to sync it. Is there any other way to sync it wirelessly or do I need a second controller?
The issue was I couldn't touch or access my ps4 at all because the controller wouldn't sync to it so I couldn't even get to the Bluetooth settings. I asked a buddy for his controller to get me into the system and then paired it so I'm good now. Thanks everybody
Mine still wont work when i got it the 2nd controller it worked and connected without doing anything a week or 2 later the battery was apparently dead i plugged in usb to charge but the light was green this time and wont connect or turn on wont turn blue or orange. Any ideas???
Alright, I don’t know what’s going but I had an issue with my old ps4 controller that when I tried running or spiriting, it wouldn’t work. So when I bought my ps4 from GameStop, they had a guarantee that if anything went wrong, like it just doesn’t turn on or something then they replace it. So I replaced my controller and I tried connecting it with USB’s and everything. I had reset it many times the console and controller. I think the share button and ps4 button combo. I literally tried everything but getting PlayStation Remote on my MacBook Air. So I’m going to try that and if doesn’t work I’m going to GameStop to complain.
This worked!!! I struggled for so long to connect my 2nd ps4 controller & tried so many other tutorials. Thank You for this video; I thought I bought a faulty ps4 controller for a second lol
Mate, thank you so much. Tried so many other videos to get a second controller connected and none worked. Was so relieved to see that red light on. Thank you.
Superb. New controller wouldn't connect and teh one I used to assign teh blutooth was broken so it was very difficult to select blutooth devices but I just managed it thanks. It's worked. Appreciated. I'm grateful well concisely explained aswell. Thanks bud.
Legend mate! My original controller cant recharge and I thought my spare was faulty but it wasn't. You saved me a lot of frustration and money, cheers bro
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! This worked on an older PS4 controller that I stopped using. I could not get it connected and gave up on it forever. This worked. Apparently, going into the devices menu is the secret.
Thank you!! My brother was trying to get it to connect for almost an hour, then i told him to just let me do it! I searched it up and this video came up, i followed it and it worked perfectly! We have two ps4s-mine and then my dad’s-and i only have two remotes. My siblings and I needed to connect a third remote to mine so that we could all play minecraft.
I know how to connect new controllers up to my PS4 but last time I did it I plugged my ps charger to my controller and it deleted my account off my PS4 literally. So I wanted to be safe and search it, thanks so much man I scrolled for a while looking for a video. Keep up the good work👍
Your tips works for me too. I can't simply just click ps+share just like the other video tutorial. In this video, it said that you need to go to bluetooth devices using 1st controller. Then once you ps+share the 2nd one, it shown there, and just click it using 1st controller, and pair.
Hey i know this is an old video but you just saved my life lol my son was so gutted he couldnt use the 2nd controller until i watched your video thanks again

You’re Welcome

Use the play store to download the ps4 remote play app and then do what the video says no need for a second controller

Just connect the USB wire directly from the Playstation to the controller. The new controller will appear on the screen

Do you have a phone charger cable that matches? connect it to the ps4 and controller and it should be easy. I didnt have to use share or home button.

it worked! it took less then 10 seconds for it to connect up, thank you I had a lot of trouble trying to make this work
Your tips works for me too. I can't simply just click ps+share just like the other video tutorial.
In this video, it said that you need to go to bluetooth devices using 1st controller. Then once you ps+share the 2nd one, it shown there, and just click it using 1st controller, and pair.
Hey i know this is an old video but you just saved my life lol my son was so gutted he couldnt use the 2nd controller until i watched your video thanks again
