controller on mobile

Anyone else start using a controller on mobile yet? It’s a bit of an annoyance because changing the setting completely reloads the game. It also puts you in a weird controller/touch screen hybrid mode.

In Genshin when you switch to a controller it just flips the interface. Not sure why they couldn’t do that for star rail. Hopefully they add a way to boot into controller mode by default so I don’t have to load the game twice every day.
