The Problem
As yet (5th Aug 2015) there's no official support from Apple for Windows 10 running through Boot Camp. So, when I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to 10, I was expecting there to be a couple of issues. One of these was a lack of Bluetooth. Also getting the fn key working.
But, it turns out to be easy to fix.
The controller is extremely customizable and can be switched on the fly to 3 modes: X-input (Xbox controller), Switch Pro Controller, and D-Input (PS4/Generic Gamepad Controller). The latter of which is fully compatible with any android device (so long as it has Bluetooth). Here are our top 5 favorite smartphone games for Android that are compatible with Bluetooth controllers Play Fortnite on your Android phone Update: Unfortunately due to recent disputes between Apple, Android, and Epic Games, Fortnite is no longer available on either the App Store (Apple/iOS) or Google Play (Android) store. Go to the windows search bar and type in Bluetooth and go to the Bluetooth menu and click the add Bluetooth device, then click on the Bluetooth option.IMPORTANT. After a previous windows feature update the 'Everything Else' option which includes Xbox controllers no longer works with the current Generation of controller firmware. Connect your Mac with a Bluetooth keyboard, mouse, trackpad, headset, or other audio device. Make sure the device is turned on and discoverable (see the device's manual for details). On your Mac, choose Apple menu System Preferences, then click Bluetooth.
Get the Driver
The driver for Windows 8.1 works with 10, so you just need to grab that.
Go to https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204048 and find your machine in the list. You want to look for the zip file download of the Boot Camp Assistant software.
For me, it was this one:
Download that file (it's pretty big – 882Mb for my one) and unzip that once done.
Install the Driver
Map Bluetooth Controller Android
Inside the unpacked folder, go into the BootCamp folder and then into the $WinPEDriver$ folder under that.
The driver needs to be installed via device manager so just confirm that the AppleBluetoothBroadcom64 folder is there for now.
In Windows, open up device manager (the easiest way to do this is just hit the Windows key and type ‘device manager' – it'll be the first result).
