I have a Switch, Steam Deck, PS4, and Steam Controller all with gyro controls. I have used gyro controls in a few games but every time I do it feels odd and I never quite get the hang of it. I keep hearing that gyro controls are really great for precision in shooters but I feel like I just can't quite get the hang of it.

I'm a long time PC and console gamer so it kind of frustrates me that I can't seem to get the hang of it. What are some recommendations for getting better at using gyro controls?

I think the mistake I made starying out was using too low of a sensitivity, and still using the joystick a lot. I switched to flick stick to force myself to use the gyro more, and eventually you just get used to it pretty naturally.

Id recommend starting with a single player game so it's less frustrating. I started with Valheim, but now I also play Halo Infinite etc. with gyro and flick stick
