iOS 7 To Support Third Party Game Controllers





There are already a number of new features that have been announced by Apple for iOS 7, but it is one that has been little mentioned by the brand that will please players: the presence of the support wireless controllers.




This Apple's decision is a response to a request from developers who wanted to provide support of a controller for their games. Indeed, until now, they had to create programs specific to each material, which could quickly become a headache for wireless controllers. iOS 7 SDK thus provides an answer to this problem by providing a specific interface that all developers can use to support compatible hardware.




Compatible hardware, just be specific enough, although close to the most experienced controllers on the market. Apple said that the system should be able to support controllers with six or eight buttons and two analog joysticks shipping. The company, however, remained evasive on exactly what will be required for manufacturers to their controllers are declared to be compatible, but we should know more soon on this topic
