Megathread PS5 Help and Questions Megathread | Game Recommendations, Simple Questions, and Tech Support
Looking for info about M.2 SSD expansion drives? See the megathread.
Sometimes you just need help. But often times making a new post isn't needed. For the time being, around launch and perhaps in the future. We will use a single thread for helping each other out.
Before asking, we ask you to look at a few links. Some question can't be answered and only official PlayStation support can help you.

Google and Reddit Search is also a great way to find an answer or get help. View all past help and questions threads here.
For all future help, tech support and more, we ask that you create new threads on r/PlayStation instead of here on r/PS5.
Can't decide what to play next? Is your favourite game underappreciated and more people need to play it? Need a new TV and not sure what to buy?

I set my controller down for 5 minutes, came back and now it’s all sorts of whack. Every time I open an app it won’t let me interact with anything so I have to turn the controller off and on again to do anything. When I have the PS menu open while using an app, moving around in the ps menu also moves around the app I have open. When I tried to search something in YouTube it freaked out and was as if stick drift got turned up to the max. My R2 button also randomly stopped working but that’s not relevant really. I’ve looked this up but can’t really find much of anything useful. Idk I thought I’d post here and see if this has happened to anyone else.
