Any chance of custom key bindings on console?

I started playing this game with m/kb on PC and transferred to Xbox to play with friends. I've really grown used to the controller and it's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be, however, can we please get custom key bindings? I promise we're not going to hurt ourselves, ZOS. Believe it or not, not everyone on console is a 12-year-old who can't figure out things for themselves. Anytime I get on PTS with a controller I can literally map anything I want. I have auto-run, FTC and whatever else I'd like at the push of a button. Why won't you allow console players the option as well? There are tons of functions you allow to be mapped on PC as well like pushing in both analog sticks, start+select or any combo of two button presses and the addition of timed presses/releases. These are all functions that you just left out of the game for console but added to PC. Why not just implement what you added to PC for console? After all, aren't they the ones using a controller? Personally, I don't really care. I go weeks without turning my Xbox on and just stick to PC, but wasn't custom key binding another thing you promised that just got left out?

    I'm not sure what you can do with xbox. On ps4 you can custom map the controller, but it stays the same for every game unless you change it back, I've got bar swap as r3 atm.

    No, problem not solved.You can change which button does what, but you can't add your own inputs. How are you supposed to map auto-run when there's no option for it? What I'm saying is on PC you can literally change the mapping of your controller to do everything the keyboard can and add in the other QoL things like auto-run, chat, etc. Zenimax left out a lot of functions on console that PC has. It would be fine, except for they already added what we need to the PC version....where nobody uses a controller. It's not like they aren't able to add it because they've already designed it. They just assume all of the console players would break their game by overlapping functions and then they would go cry and say ZOS broke their game.

    Also, you don't need the elite controller to do what you're talking about. It's already built into the base controller and xbox software. The only thing that the elite does is add more inputs but you can't overlap them so really it's just for people too lazy to take their thumb off the "A" button.
