How to Place PS5 Controller into Bluetooth Pairing Mode (Connect Controller)
To connect your PlayStation 5 (PS5) DualSense or DualSense Edge controller to a phone (or other Bluetooth device), you need to put it into pairing mode. Here are concise steps to do so, tailored to your context of connecting to an iPhone or Android phone.
Steps to Enter Bluetooth Pairing Mode
Ensure Controller is Off:
If the controller is on (light bar glowing), press and hold the PS button (center, PlayStation logo) for 10–15 seconds until the light bar turns off.
Disconnect any USB-C cable and ensure the PS5 console is off or the controller is unpaired to avoid interference.
Enter Pairing Mode:
Locate the PS button (center) and the Create/Share button (small button with three lines, left of the touchpad).
Press and hold both buttons simultaneously for 3–5 seconds.
The light bar will start flashing blue rapidly, indicating the controller is in Bluetooth pairing mode.
Connect to Your Device:
On your iPhone (iOS 14.5+): Go to Settings - Bluetooth, find “DualSense Wireless Controller” or “DualSense Edge Wireless Controller” under “Other Devices,” and tap to connect.
On your Android (Android 12+): Go to Settings - Bluetooth (or Connected Devices - Pair new device), find the controller, and tap to connect.
The light bar turns solid (e.g., orange on iPhone, blue on Android) when paired.
