I've been eyeing this controller for quite a while and before jumping the gun I saw that it wasn't advertised as being compatible with Android for some reason despite having bluetooth.

Upon looking around I saw this post that said the bluetooth controller does not support D-Input, only X-Input. So it's partially compatible with Android as long as the game uses X-input.

Any thoughts on this? Does the Guilikit have the same problem?

Latest Firmware update log on the website for the 2.4ghz said

Firmware v2.00 1. Added the Bluetooth connection for Dinput mode.

Does that mean it supports Android on Bluetooth better now?

firmware update log for the ultimate Bluetooth was not the same.

That's the 2.4ghz one, not the bluetooth one. That controller uses a USB receiver in order to work, so I don't think it'll work on Android.
