# IGameInputReading::GetMotionState (Deprecated)

> IGameInputReading::GetMotionState

> [!WARNING]
>
> **Deprecated.** This method was removed in GameInput v1 and is not available in the current API.

Gets the motion (accelerometer and gyroscope) state from the reading.

## Syntax

```cpp theme={null}
bool GetMotionState(
    GameInputMotionState* state
);
```

### Parameters

*state*   \_Out\_\
Type: [GameInputMotionState](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/input/gameinput/deprecated/structs/gameinputmotionstate.md)\*

A pointer to a [GameInputMotionState](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/input/gameinput/deprecated/structs/gameinputmotionstate.md) structure to fill with motion data.

### Return value

Type: bool

Returns `true` if the reading contains motion state; `false` otherwise.

## Remarks

This method and the associated [GameInputMotionState](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/input/gameinput/deprecated/structs/gameinputmotionstate.md) struct were removed in v1. Motion state was available on devices that exposed accelerometer and gyroscope axes.
