Question:

My screen responds slowly to my controller inputs. What can I do?

Answer:

Here are some steps to follow if you're experiencing slow controller input response times:

Check for interferences: When using a wireless connection like Bluetooth, your device might be affected by other nearby devices emitting similar frequencies. To fix this, try avoiding using your device close to other electronics, or temporarily disconnect other Bluetooth devices in use.

Switch to 5GHz Wi-Fi: Connecting to a 2.4GHz wireless network might cause slow response times. Try connecting to a 5GHz network instead.

Restart your controller and device: Sometimes, the slow response might be due to a temporary glitch with your controller or device. Turn off your controller, restart it, then reconnect it to your device. If the problem continues, reach out to Microsoft support for further assistance.
