You can now use a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller with your Android phone

One solution to make it easier to play mobile games on smartphones are external controllers. Android continues to add support for external controllers to make it easier to game on your mobile device. The latest one to get support is the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller. Technically, you could connect the Pro Controller before because it's a Bluetooth device. But functionality might be hampered. This time, the controllers are correctly mapped—allowing you to game freely. 

To pair your Pro Controller with an Android phone, simply hold the pair button on the back of the controller and then head to the Bluetooth settings on your handset. Right now, some of the games you can use the controller with include Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Minecraft, and Modern Combat 5: eSports FPS.

'Pokémon Go' to introduce two-player live AR option

Pokémon Go will soon be testing a live multiplayer feature that it's calling Buddy Adventure. Based on Niantic's Codename: Neon multiplayer augmented reality tech, the feature lets two different devices create interactive AR objects in the same frame. This means two smartphones, whether it runs on Android or iOS, will be able to see the same objects in the same frame. Using the existing Buddy system, you can pair with a buddy Pokémon and go on adventures with another player. What the experience means isn't clear right now. But the possibility of interacting with someone else's buddy Pokémon is possible. The feature is also cross-platform, so you don't have to worry about using different devices.

Netflix to stop support for older Samsung smart TVs starting Dec. 2

In the coming month, some Samsung smart televisions will find that they no longer support the Netflix app. The streaming service cites "technical limitations" that will prevent them from working on a "small number of older devices" starting December 2nd. According to the company, affected users have already been informed about the change. The only way to watch Netflix on these TVs is if the users still have devices like an Apple TV, Chromecast, Roku, etc. to stream content. We don't know yet which TVs are affected, but we will update you when we hear more from either company.
