How to Change the Color of Your PS4 Controller
Unfortunately, your PS4 doesn’t have an inbuilt system to allow you to change the PS4 controller color. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t! You will have to go to your computer and download software named InputMapper.
Here are the steps to change color of PS4 controller smoothly:
- Start by plugging the PS4 controller using the USB charger for your PS4. Connect it to your PC’s USB port.
- Next, open the InputMapper program that you installed.
- Towards the left, you’ll find the menu bar with the option “Profile.”
- Select the option “New profile” then go to “Configuration.”
- Underneath the category “Lightbar settings” you’ll find several options such as:
- Discharging mode – changes the color of your LED when your controller has a low battery.
- Charging Mode – changes the color of your LED when your controller is charging.
- Fully Charged Mode – changes the color of your LED when it is completely charged.
- Select the one you prefer and then save the changes once it’s finalized.
Change Color on PS4 Controller for Each User
For every user logged in to the PS4 console, a color is assigned which then lights up on the respective controllers. The PS4 controller light colors are simple – if it’s for player one, the light is blue. If you’re player two, then the light is red. If you’re the third player then it’s green, and purple if you’re the fourth player. If you want to assign these colors to yourself then here’s what you do:
- Begin by creating new users if you don’t have any more users – which means creating three more and the fourth will be the primary.
- Next, sign in to one of the users. You’ll notice that the first user logged in will make your controller light blue.
- Now, switch to the next user which would not change the colors according to the above-mentioned scheme. Remember; you will have to log in with the main account to control how you change your PS4 controller color.
Conclusion
How to change the PS4 controller color is really not that difficult. Keep in mind that, to change user color, if you make the primary user according to the color you want, your controller LED will change as well. Now, you can enjoy a great game according to your requirements!
