Can I connect PS2 Controller to my Android Wirelessly (self.gamedev)

Firstly, I am making a game and I want to connect my PS2 Controller to my Android phone with bluetooth for a game I am making with Unity.

Is it possible to connect both of them ?

With my lowly research, i came to know that the protocols are old and this functionality isn't supported.

Else I have to root my phone, which I don't want to.

Suggestions I need:

Any third-party app that would act as a medium which would re-direct the inputs to the game.
Any modules or implementation that I could make to make this work around.

Dude... Your talking about mixing ancient technology with space age hardware. What comes next? Watching VHS on the switch?

Good luck getting your setup to work. The drivers for PS5 are completely open sourced by Sony so I think it would make your life much easier by investing in a new controller 😅
