Ever wanted to play your favorite PS4 game but your family was watching tv? If you own an Android or iOS device that’s on the same network as your PS4 device, there’s a simple solution for you!
You can use the PS4’s Remote Play functionality on Android and iOS devices, thanks to the newest updated version of the console’s firmware, allowing you to remotely play your PS4 games from a mobile device, with limitations of course.
Announced back in 2013, Remote Play originally let you stream games from a PS4 console to the handheld PlayStation Vita. Sony later released the Remote Play apps for both Windows and Mac, and finally Android.
There are a couple of other limitations with the functionality that you need to be aware of. You’ll need an iPhone or iPad running iOS 12.1 or higher, or any android smartphone or tablet running Android 5.0 or higher. This function is only available over Wi-Fi. You can’t use Remote Play from another location over a mobile network.
To access your PS4, you’ll first need to download the Remote Play app for your iOS device, or Android device, and then pair it with your console. Compatible games can then be played over Wi-Fi using the on-screen buttons. Simple as that. You can even use your Dualshock 4 Wireless Controller with it.
Hopefully this has been helpful to you, stay tuned with us for more news like this. Remember you’ll still need to own a PS4 and the games itself in order for this to work, so be sure to grab those using our PSN Cards below:
