Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

To connect a PS3 controller you don't need to install any apps for it. Just go to Settings -> Xperia Connectivity -> DUALSHOCK 3 wireless controller. The paring is done using an OTG-cable and the tablet then connect over bluetooth to the controller.

If you are unable to connect your controller, i recommend that you check if your OTG-adapter works but connecting something else like a keyboard, mouse or thumbdrive.
