As far as the internet is concerned, there is no way to pair a Wii remote with a modern Android device. Guides are all outdated and rely on ancient apps from 2010/2011 that don't support Android 4.2+. There's lots of discussion on how wiimote pairing works, but nobody seems to have actually done the tiny bit of work necessary to make it possible on Android.
A simple app to pair Wii remotes with Android devices. It searches for Bluetooth devices, identifies Wii remotes, and computes the correct pairing PIN so that the remote can be paired with your Android device. It also has experimental support for Wii U Pro Controllers and other Nintendo controllers that pair similarly.


This is a very very simple app that does that tiny amount of work to pair a wiimote. It searches for Bluetooth devices, lets you select your wiimote, calculates the correct pairing pin, and pairs the wiimote.
'''Note:''' Current guides and methods are outdated and utilize apps from 2010/2011 that are incompatible with newer versions of Android. As it stands, there appears to be a lack of solutions on the internet for pairing a Wii remote with a modern Android device.

A simple app to pair Wii remotes with Android devices. It searches for Bluetooth devices, identifies Wii remotes, and computes the correct pairing PIN so that the remote can be paired with your Android device. It also has experimental support for Wii U Pro Controllers and other Nintendo controllers that pair similarly.

Note: Current guides and methods are outdated and utilize apps from 2010/2011 that are incompatible with newer versions of Android. As it stands, there appears to be a lack of solutions on the internet for pairing a Wii remote with a modern Android device.
