Delayed and not remote

Every button I press is delayed by a couple seconds and it sucks. It feels so hard to play. My iPad isn’t laggy, not is the PlayStation, it’s the app. I hate how I have to be next to the PlayStation to use it too, it’s REMOTE play. I have to be nearby to use it, at that point just use a controller. I wanna be on a road trip and be able to play with no delay or any problems at all.

(Also heats up my iPad very fast but I’m not too concerned, I think it’s my iPads fault it heats up)

2026-04-04

Sucks do not get!

This is not worth it I got it and was playing it for a month and then it didn’t let me use it any more so I thought it would only need a update except it would not let me update it! Do not get!

2026-03-28

Can’t connect

I downloaded the app try to connect to my ps5 and do not connect I have try so many times fix the app

2026-03-19

Fix this app it’s no good

It’s perfect but if you sign in it will sign you out fix this

2026-03-06

I love it

I just started a game and it was amazing and I really like the sims 4 it’s literally my fav game

Ty for making this app

2026-02-23

Does not work

App sucks

2025-12-04

Good Idea: Executed Poorly

It is fun till you notice the latency making games impossible. If you even get to playing games. I got to play once before i needed to sign in again where it then says, password incorrect, i changed it, password incorrect. I have since deleted the app due to this.

2025-09-27

5 star use for me

Think was a great idea

2025-09-25

Good app overall… But

It’s a good app overall to use with your console but every time i use it, it’s very laggy, delayed and twitchy. I don’t expect this app to be so good but i thought there’d be more options for ps5 quality instead of it all being there just for the ps4 options. What I’ve seen is that when i play the game “Hollow knight” attacking with Square seems to cancel out my character walking right when moving the left joystick right, but sometimes happens?

2025-09-22

Good idea, but not good use

The idea of this app is super cool, however; the app unexpectedly quits, pauses, lags. Therefore, for it to work, your phone would literally have to be leaning on your PlayStation for it to go 5 minutes without quitting. So you may as well just play normally on your PlayStation.

2025-09-18

.

People don’t get what this is for. This for when someone else is over and using your telly or when you want to play in bed and for that it’s as excellent as your wifi. it’s NOT for playing on the train or while your away it simply won’t really work.

2025-09-07

So bad

So bad, can’t connect even on a stable network. Might wanna fix it

2025-08-21

Rubbish- Go Xbox

Good for nothing. Xbox/ Microsoft gives you the ability to play top games in any device, including your tablet. Stay away from PS5

2025-06-26

Being weird

So basically I was trying to pair it and it’s hooked up the the same network and it won’t pair it was a good idea but just sorta weird to connect…

2025-06-01

No Play

No station

2025-05-18

Screen not full screen with the Backbone

When ever I have the backbone connected to my phone the screen on the ps remote play does not fill up my entire screen and when I sometime use my phone instead it fills up the screen pls fix this.

2025-05-13

Help

I’ve been trying different methods but each time it says “cant connect to ps5” I’ve searched how to fix it but nothings working

2025-04-20

Thank you 😀😀😀😀😀😀😃😃😃😄😁

thank you for this app it change my experience with PS5s because when the controller is out of battery i rage quit 😡😡😤😤😤😤😤😤😡

2025-03-26

I use this app daily and cant imagine doing without

I love being able to play PS5 games on my iPad in bed late at night instead of on the living room couch outside. For anyone with latency issues, best unplug the HDMI cable from the TV (the one connecting PS5 to the TV) when you remote in. I have no latency issues after this!

2025-02-14

Pls reply

Every time I try and get the code to connect my ps4 something happens and it says the code has been used before

2025-01-20

Rubbish, always streams over internet even when I’m at home on the same wifi as my PS5

Why oh why don’t you just handle the most popular case? A lot of people want to play their PS5 from another device when they are at home (eg in bed on a phone)

However this app refuses to work on local wifi without fast external internet … there is NO NEED for this!

So my experience is that it’s always slow, laggy, pixelated and within minutes it just gives up and drops connection.

In addition, why not have better settings/info in this app so you can see exactly what’s currently happening? Eg what bandwidth there is, what network you are using etc etc so people can debug their setup. I stead you hide it all and just disconnect.

I hope you can make this app work at last.

2025-01-05

Completely buggy

The app is an amazing idea and when I first downloaded it I absolutely loved it. But each time I used the app I noticed the video quality was getting worse and worse and the time it was taking to connect, even if I was right next to the console. Save yourself time and just don’t download this app.

2024-12-14

Crazy lag

It is a good idea of it worked. It always lags out and takes forever to connect. Do not download complete disappointment.

2024-12-10

Server unstable

They disable you from playing it, to boost portal sales.

2024-12-09

Can’t connect using mobile data

Love remote play in general especially using the backbone. However all of a sudden I can’t use it on mobile data. It’s worked fine over the years using mobile data, now over night I can’t use no longer use it on mobile data, only on the same WiFi it works. No recourse on how to fix. I called both Sony and service provider, neither can even see the issue. Please fix with an update.

2024-11-30

sooo buggy

outright does not work for me ever. always says “ your internet connection is not sufficient” or something like that and then i check my network speed and its like 170mbps. wish i could use it because it would be so convenient

2024-11-28

Report

The app is not working and saying lost sever and never working no matter what I do

2024-10-28

Won’t connect to mobile data

No idea why but will not connect to mobile data Always says that connection is too slow but it’s lightning fast

2024-09-30

Exeptional app

So I got this app in 2020 right, and when I first got it, it was great and all but then I notice that it wasn’t that great because I could not play with a controller, and that was a real downgrade, but I then figure out that the ps controllers ( DualSense or DualShock ) are both Bluetooth which makes them able to pair and connect to you device which made this app 10x better and up to my standard expectations and I can play all day long without my fingers getting sore. And that’s why I rate this app ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

2024-09-19

Vision Pro

That app works ok, but please enable the app to work on VisionOS. I don’t trust logging into some of the other non-Sony apps with my PS account info.

2024-09-15

Laggy constant disconnection

The app itself works well, controller connection isn’t an issue either as I’m able to connect my ps5 controller to my iPad Pro without any issues. However, games are playable probably 5mins in an hour, the rest of the time is frozen, disconnected, controls literally spinning your character or so laggy there’s no point.

Strangely I do not experience any of this using the xbox X remotely.

Come on Sony, do better, this could be great.

2024-09-14

Terrible update

This has has worked in the past ok, the controls are terrible but the concept and overall experience is half decent. The analogue stick needs to be completely separated from the d-pad because there is too many wrong clicks. Since the upmost recent update I can’t connect even though nothing else has changed. Keeps saying my connections is too slow.. my connection is more than enough so sadly 3 stars down to 1 star because the app doesn’t work at all. It should be removed from the App Store until it’s fixed.

2024-09-10

How

Idk how to sign in

2024-07-24

Fun

Ngl it was amazing just like on the ps5 but so laggy you guys should fix that but atleast I got a victory royal on Fortnite so yeahh

2024-07-24

It’s good but there are flaws

First of all they should make a thing where you can change the button size of the buttons, also more range would be good like you can play your games when your somewhere else, if this is possible connecting your controller to your the device would be good. Good job!

2024-07-12

Broken…

It worked once then refuses to connect… I bought a Backbone solely to use this app to play PS4 games wherever I am. Unfortunately the app is crappy and doesn’t work.

2024-06-20

Needs a fix

The worst app ever … I can never connect to my ps5 even on the same network …

2024-06-05

Confusion..

Why even call it remote play when we still need a wifi connection, what if I can’t get access to wifi, is 5G network not good enough, I assume it is as I could tether my ps5 console to my phone for a connection without the need of wifi…..

2024-03-13

Sony need to patch the stutter issue with Remote play

Sony see Reddit r/remoteplay and r/playstationportal to see the bug that’s causing streaming at 59.94Hz rather than 60Hz causing issues with displays that don’t support a variable refresh rate. This has been proven as an issue across the board for all of your remote play software. Patches required urgently!

2024-02-07

First update in months, still broken on mobile

You think given how long it’s been, Sony would have corrected such a major issue. Unfortunately, it seems like they didn’t get the memo. The app is still unusable when on mobile data. It only seems to work on mobile when I am connected to a VPN. I suspect it’s an issue with IPv6 only addresses. This should not be such a problem at this point in time. Do better.

2024-01-30

This is not very good

I can’t use it while it’s off and my PlayStation only stays on for about 5 min because it over heats and the mother board of a ps4 break easy i didn’t do anything to break it

2024-01-29

Trash

Sorry can’t make money off this app so its a pos

2024-01-23

good

Hi who ever see this download the app and it was so awsome

2024-01-06

Unable to use controller

After I connected to remote play, my controller stopped connecting to my ps4 and now I can’t use it

2023-12-27

Not working on mobile

Since the recent update its not working with mobile data. Saying speed too slow u need to do hotspot to get it to work so i would say avaerage. Whats the point of remote play when u cant play with mobile data

2023-12-22

Works perfectly other than not working for IPv6 only Celullar

It provides smooth experience most of the time, especially connecting to local network. However, my mobile provider has switched to IPv6 only for three years now and This App can’t stream over IPv6 only network.

2023-12-02

Why won’t it let me sign in?

When I tried to sign it just sits there loading forever and i can’t sign in my email is correct but it did work at the start so 4/5 for me and it needs so much wifi to work pls fix it.

2023-11-20

Will not connect to Sony servers

After fruitless searching on how to fix this issue, it just seems myself and many others with iPads simply cannot get past the first step of signing in let alone actually using the app. Poor effort Sony and a giant waste of time.

I can sign into psn on every other device and pc I own. But for whatever reason, the Sony servers reject this iPad entirely for all Sony apps.

2023-11-19

Fix login server issue

This is going to sound ridiculous. But if you can’t log in because it says server issue. Try rotating the iPad to portrait mode to log in. I tried every single thing to fix this issue. Uninstall. Restart iPad. It wasn’t until I accidentally rotated the device and attempted once more that it worked.

2023-11-09

App won’t sign into PSN

After getting through a lengthy puzzle, the app attempts to sign in for about 1 sec. Stops and then nothing happpens.

The other PlayStation app signs in without issue

2023-10-26

Amazing on PS5.

This app is amazing for playing video games whilst someone else is using the tv. Now that you can connect your PS5 controller through Bluetooth it’s amazing using to use, but on PS4 you can’t connect the controller to Bluetooth so y have to use the digital controller which isn’t as good. The PS4 also isn’t as good at connecting to Bluetooth like the ps5 does. But because I own a PS5 it is much better because you don’t have to use the digital controller. If you don’t own a PS5 you can use the backbone 1 for controller feel.

2023-10-16

Captcha system needs to be addressed.

These captcha puzzles are flawed. No matter how careful you are, there is a reasonably high chance you will fail at least one of the 5-10 or so required. They won’t tell you which one or more.

The work around is using the audio puzzle, but even though that is easy to pass, you still need to do 5 or so of them, and right now even upon successful completion you are looped back to the log in page, where you have to once again complete them again.

App is unusable as a result.

2023-09-24

Latest Update is Broken

Something is wrong with the latest update.

I used to have zero problems with remote play previously now connecting via wifi gets stuck and checking networking a lot, it often errors and often requires me to hit connect a second time. This occurs while using mobile data.

2023-09-20

Mobile data support broken

Latest update has broken access via mobile data. Wifi still works but mobile data continues to prompt speed is not high enough enough it has been fine before and it still works when hotspotting off another device.

While we’re in the area would love an option to connect via local or remote rather than wait for the app to decide itself.

2023-09-16

Update ruined remote play aspect ratio

Just updated to the most recent version of remote play, an app I have used fairy consistently the last few months without any problem. Now when I turn on remote play on my iPhone, when the phone is in landscape orientation, a portion of the bottom part of the screen is no longer visible. I can see it in portrait, but it is just black. It makes playing games incredible difficult because it basically blacks out all bottom-set huds.

2023-07-23

Cannot connect to linked ps4

Hi, so I cannot connect to the ps4 but everything is perfectly fine and it only works when I’m on the ps4 but apparently it won’t let me play on rest mode, I want to play on it while it’s on rest mode because I can play wherever I want but I can’t do that because the app is on something. Please fix this and I’ll make another review with 5 stars thanks 😊.

2022-09-09

Telstra IPV6 support would be amazing.

This app is really really good however I’m wondering if there are any plans to have mobile data format IPV6 supported? Or if it’s possible? This is what Australia’s Telstra network uses so anyone wanting to play on mobile data with Telstra just cannot.

2022-09-08

App review

This is an overall great app! But you need to make it so you can be much further from your PlayStation before you start to glitch out that’s all

2022-05-07

Bluetooth pairing issues

Not sure if this is just me, but once I connect my controller to my phone to use this app, that controller never connects to my ps4 ever again. Just keeps flashing blue, and none of the strats on google help at all.

Just be mindful when connecting your controller to your phone to use this app is all I’m saying. Otherwise, as long as you have good internet, this app is great.

2022-04-26

Please fix grey border issue

App is very good, recently it has worked mostly seamlessly which is a huge improvement over a few years back.

However, there is an ongoing issue of grey borders on wide screen phones that are so ugly it makes me not want to play. Please fix this issue!

2021-10-10

Doesn’t work with video streaming apps

Geez! It took me a couple of hours fartarsing about with account logins, profile IDs, device connections and so on. Once I got it working, I found that my fave streaming apps Netflix and AppleTV not only disallow streaming to the ipad (which I understand and do not want) but don’t even allow the remote controller to work for app controls like pause, rewind, etc. Not effing happy!

2021-05-12

Awesome Application, Apple TV Port Needed though!

As the title states I can’t fault the application itself, its really handy being able to utilise my iPad to play my PlayStation. However would be even more handy being able to utilise any of the other screen in the house that have an Apple TV connected to them. Being able to play these on the connected bigger screens will make for a much better experience without having to move any hardware or buying a second console.

2021-04-20

No full screen play

Please make this app play full screen. I have the iPhone 12 Pro Max and hate that this puts black borders at each end. Why not take full advantage of the large screens on the new phones. This is very disappointing and makes me not want to use the app. Please update it so we can play full screen.

2021-03-17

Great app, but no DualSense support?

First off, this app is excellent. It’s great for when you want to… play on your PlayStation… remotely. If you’re on the same network as your PS, it even works without internet! However, currently, the lack of DualSense support is disappointing. If you get this app on Windows or Mac, the DualSense works excellently, with all of its features functioning, though only via USB. If you pair your DualSense to your iPhone/iPad, and boot up Remote Play, it works great as a controller, but there is no support haptic feedback or adaptive triggers. Hopefully this can be fixed soon. If it was supported, this would be an easy 5 stars.

2021-01-25

Please change remote conection

Please fix this i shouldnt have to conect my remote to my phone its made heists unplayable due to not being able to use my remotes aux output for headset this is extremely annoying please let the remote play just be remote play and not have to conect controller to phone as cant use microphone no microphone in headset i wont play its ruined my game experience and it needs to be fixed by the way im talking about gta5 gameplay this app is good the only problem is cant have controlee conected to ps4 so cant use headset

2020-12-28

Mostly works, irritatingly wifi only

Works fairly smoothly, more reliable than their Mac app. Sony’s totally failed to have any DualSense support, and they limit it to WiFi, but 5g is good enough to run this app, tether an iPad to a 5g iPhone and you can see it works brilliantly when it’s tricked in to thinking it’s on WiFi. It never worked well over 4g, so it’s understandable why they blocked it before, but they really need to update it to suit today’s situation.

Still, very useful app, works quite well, even with all it’s frustrating limits.

2020-08-23

It’s ok...

The remote play is okay and the concept is sound but I found that it is unreliable. Sometimes I can be standing right beside the ps4 and it still doesn’t connect.( I do this so nobody can watch me play) It’s inconsistency is really irritating and if it were fix it would make the app all the more better.

2020-01-03

Allow us to use Data!

Absolutely love this app but it infuriates me to no end that I can’t use my mobile data to play games. Considering I can hotspot to my tablet, how is this any different than using my phone directly. Love the new dualshock connectivity, just please, please, please allow us to use data and this app would be perfect.

2019-10-30

PS4 remote play.

I was excited about this when I saw it. Download it and couldn’t wait to play it. Once having used it I was let down. It’s virtually impossible to use all the buttons that you need. It’s not set up well to play complex games ie fifa, cod and other games. Using right analog stick to look around and aim is horrendous. You’re basically chasing your own view to try and control it and see ahead of you. It’s all over the place. Needs improvement but is very cool to control your PS4 with your phone.

2019-10-27

Works well but could be improved

It’s a good app that works as intended most times, however I did have issues where it wouldn’t connect to my PS4 when on a different network even after manually pairing to it multiple times, because it was not set as my primary PlayStation. Also, if CHROMECAST SUPPORT was added it would be perfect - being able to go away and take this, a Chromecast and controller and getting a full PlayStation experience would be amazing and I’m sure I would use the app much more.

2019-10-21

RemotePlay is trash.

Great concept but there’s a lot to improve on.

It seems that despite my continuously strong and fast internet connection, the PS4RemotePlay app constantly disconnects me from the PS4. This occurs for both the iPhone and Mac versions on the app. The disconnection happens every couple of minutes and then takes a few minutes to reconnect; allowing for less than optimal gameplay.

Another issue is that when using a controller through Bluetooth, some of the buttons don’t even register when you press them. I constantly have trouble trying to use the touchpad and PlayStation home button on the PS4 controller. These issues were not relevant when I was connected directly to the console, however they seem to occur whenever I try to use the RemotePlay apps.

I’m sure there are many other issues. If Sony really care about their consumers, they will fix these issues so that we can experience optimal gameplay while we are away from our consoles.

Great concept, trash application.

2019-10-09

It’s excellent

Since the latest update this apps did something amazing not only can you now use the DS4 controller for a person like me Who has too wear hearing aids that are connected too my iPhone/iPad through Bluetooth so its really great too have audio directly sent my hearing aids so I get sound that’s perfectly tuned to my hearing loss the hearing aids have 3D audio technology in them too so I get all the benefits of the really big headphones or headsets with out anything on my head

2019-10-04

Perfect

My experience with this is amazing and it performs a lot better that I was expecting and there was next to no lag, the only issue I have is that i cant turn on my PlayStation if it is turned off or on rest mode, I’m not sure if you are able to do that but it would be great if it was a feature.

Thankfully DualShock support is coming

When dual shock controller support is added by apple it’ll be easier to use also the app really needs to not just copy the screen because it’s nearly impossible to play split screen games because it makes your screen tiny but it’s still great and fun to use

Controller Support

So I’ve been waiting for an app like this for ages, but now that it’s finally here I’m kind of let down, because I was expecting controller support to be available! The controller is one of the most fundamental parts of the console and by taking away the controller aspect, you’re taking away one of the best parts! Now, don’t get me wrong, I love this app, but say for example, if I wanted to play fortnite from my phone, I could just play through the app, but if I had a controller available to use whilst still being able to use my phone, that would make me choose the app over anything! And also take into account that say the tv that the ps4 is connected to us being used, I could just go into my room and play on my phone while still being able to let others use the tv! I’m not saying it ruins the app, but it would be nice to have!

Amazing

This app just starting out is amazing it needs some work such as instant second screen capabilities when you can jus turn it into a map or something but seems great at conventions and other events without your ps4

A very big hand to Sony

Wow. This is a very big leap for Sony and the game industry, being able to play games from my iPad and phone has completely changed the game for me.

Another great addition is being able to use this app as an extra remote for those parties where you just don’t have enough remotes. Just hook up your iPad and play to your hearts content!

Some connectivity issues the first time round, but one it does connect it’s absolute gold.

Very well done Sony,

5/5

Great App

I love the app and how you can control the ps4 on your iOS device but just please make it compatible to use the PS4 controller or at least make the touch controls better. With the small buttons and delays, it makes the app pretty much useless for games on the PS4...

Needs the ability to use phone internet

Great app, real cool but I wish I could use my phone internet so I can use it anywhere.

It’s annoying it needs wifi, especially when my phone internet is on par or even better then most wifi networks.

Would get 5 stars if I could use mobile data

Need mobile data option too

It is now the best sony has provide for ios users. I mean to play ps while you are away, it’s awesome. But still need a option fir mobile data. I have unlimited 4g plan and I don’t have to worry about my data. It would be good if Sony provide us with this option.

5 Star for the potential of this being a game changer.

Being able to take my iPad on a work trip and connect to my PS4 and play some games has got me really excited. Ran this at home and connection was quick and easy. Gameplay was smooth, this is all dependant on your internet connection I would assume so going to need to bump up my data with phone as hotel wifi’s can be awful. The biggest thing to integrate would be the controller. It is pretty hard using the on screen controls especially if you are playing shooters or games that require quick use of other buttons ie Spider-Man. So would love controller intergration and PS4 Name change. Had my at the time cool but now cringey ps4 name for 12 years.

AMAZING!!!

This has got to be one of the BIGGEST advancements in video game history! I can leave my PS4 on at home but turn off the TV, then I can go to school, work, etc, anywhere with an internet connection (heck even Macca's) and play on it. When I’m done I can turn off my PS4 from the app and then be on my merry way (well, unless I wanna play on it again later but I’m sure that there will be future updates that allow you to turn on the PS4 if it’s on rest mode or something). I haven’t spent too much time using the app yet but I haven’t experienced any bugs or crashes (there is a bit of lag but it’s not enough to cause a problem). I just love this app!

Sony, WELL DONE, hats off to you!

I would definitely recommend this app to any PS4 user.

5/5

No support for inverted X or Y axis play

I invert the Y axis on all modern games, having learned which way is up on a Thrustmaster joystick playing Comanche, a helicopter sim. In a helicopter, leaning a joystick *away* from you puts the copter’s nose *down* (and moves you forwards)

I presume most gamers perceive the joystick as moving /the world/ around in their field of view; for me, the joystick is like an extension of my character’s spine through its head, and moving it moves *me* (well, my head and neck), never the world.

Failing to support Y axis inversion in PS4 games makes this app unusable for me.

Great Idea.... in theory.

I leaped at the opportunity to download this the second I heard about it and admittedly a lot of work must’ve gone into this for it to turn out the way it did. However, virtually ANY latency kills your ability to play 95% of games outright. The controls themselves are very clunky and L1/L2 are virtually inaccessible while using the left analog stick - which only works half the time itself. Not to mention the lack of any DualShock compatibility meaning I can only really use this to look at my games and wish I could play them while I’m out like I do at home.

There’s isn’t much you can do if your internet isn’t 100% perfect but if DualShock support was added it could be a bearable experience for a turn based game or something.

Great App

I have been waiting for this for a long time, great to see it’s finally here!

People will whine about the lack of PS4 controller compatibility but they don’t realise it’s not Sony’s fault it’s Apple locking all their systems down so they can sell their controller I.e (nimbus).

Two downsides to the app. 1- is the lack of cellular use. Big mistake as people are simply going to bypass by using tethering anyway. Just have a button and a warning for data usage and performance issues that we can tick to say we understand.

2 - The screen is not optimised completely for All iPhones. I am getting black strips along the top and bottom, I realise the resolution means the app running on iPads is required to be scaled but the iPhone is a long display I think it can be optimised a little better.

Until cellular is updated 4 stars as that will make the magic 5!

R-Play app is better for now. Lacks necessary features.

The R-Play app is still better than this app. You can connect to your PS4 via cellular with the R-Play app, with this app you cannot. You can also configure MFI Controllers like the SteelSeries Nimbus for button shortcuts like L3 and R3 since MFI controllers don’t have L3 and R3 buttons. With this app you can’t do that either. You can also use your DS4 controller with the R-Play app when near enough to your PS4, but not with this app.

If they added these missing features then there would be no competition.

But hey, it’s free so why not download it.
