Joy Con on Mac?

[Finch McQuill]

I'm trying to use my Joy Con on my Mac to play a few games. I got them connected just fine via System Preferences, but it seems that games aren't recognizing its button inputs. Does anyone know of a way to fix that?

I saw Joy2Key, which looked like a potential solution, but I'm pretty sure that's Windows only. Any idea?

You could check if Steam's own input mapper works.

I don't think I've ever used Steam's input mapper. Could you enlighten me?

Go to Steam big picture, go to settings, then controller settings.

So, I went into the controller settings and mapped out the Joy Con and saved it, but then it disappeared from the menu. Is this normal?

Update: I've got it connected and working, but I put in some of the inputs wrong I guess? Up is behaving as down, and left as right, but I can't seem to edit my button layout. Help?

i tried but the maping is complex missing buttons on L joy con and R joy con
the pro controller maping is possible but for joy con i need to find a program that makes it that steam thinks its one controller

hi, how did you fix the problem? I mapped out the joy con and saved it in Big Picture, then I can use joy con to control the menu of Big Picture but I still can't use joy con in game.
