## FAQ

### Does the GameSir Pocket Taco work with iPhone?
Yes. The Pocket Taco connects via Bluetooth and is compatible with both Android and iOS devices.

### Can the GameSir Pocket Taco play modern 3D games?
The Pocket Taco lacks analog sticks, so it's best suited for retro, 2D, and turn-based games. Modern 3D games requiring dual analog input are not ideal for this controller.

### Why is the GameSir Pocket Taco vertical?
The vertical orientation transforms your phone into a classic Game Boy-style handheld. It's designed for retro gaming and emulation where a portrait orientation enhances the nostalgic experience.
