BACKBONEI went all out with this app and bought the BACKBONE it is so fun now I can play MW3 anywhere I want on plane rides and long road
trips and don't have to play split screen on fortnight so fun.
This App Keeps Kicking Me Out Because Of The Wi-FiThis App Keeps Kicking Me Out Of The Wi-Fi Internet Disconnect Every Time I Keep Connecting On This App But End Up Disconnecting
Because Of The Wi-Fi Internet.
It won’t open..The app worked well but now the app refuses to open and it won’t let me in to play games remotely
PlayStationPS Remote Play review. I think you PlayStation should add music so I can listen to music while I play if you see his review,
please and thank you at this
PlayStation Remote play app is but it lags sometimSometimes when I’m in a middle of a game it start lagging out of nowhere
Most of the time works well on ipad pro (2022)Most of the time it works well with little lag. Lately though (past week) its been cutting off randomly and exits the app to my
home page. I’m not sure if this this is a new bug, but its been pretty annoying. Hope it gets fixed.
GoodI should be able to play without WiFi
The bestI have been playing on this app for along time, and I should say, it is very good!just one thing.which is that it is tough with
the unstable connection
An issueThe app is great especially with the backbone, but I have a slight issue, I use my personal internet and it doesn’t connect
while going places
Ps palyليش ما اقدر العب مع خويي من غير الشبكه حقته
Sony needs to updateAll of their systems where cross play is available not for all but for a good amount of games and that would make PlayStation
great again
Works pretty well with a controllerThe resolution is decent and probably varies by device and internet connection speeds. The latency isn’t noticeable which is
actually the most impressive thing. The only thing id like to see is an app for apple TV. Then this would really be 5 stars for
me.
Please support Apple TVPlease support Apple TV I already need this. I use television in my living room while my PlayStation 5 is located in another small
rooms that uses with a driving simulator. Apple TV is a good use case.
Needs 1080p and Stretch/Full screenPlease add 1080p support and full screen/stretch mode. Screen size feels small. Definitely love to play in a higher resolution.
The tech is good for remote play butOne downside is we can't use our phone's haptic feedback and the need to be on wifi on our phones. if we had mobile data option
this app would be better
BEST APPI FINALLY FOJND OUT MY Rjttp@321 AND EMAIL FOR MY ACCOUNT AND THANKS FOR ADDING THE PS5!DREAM COME TRUE!
Works well after the latest updatesIf you have your ps5 wired and a strong WiFi connection (like a mesh network) this app runs pretty well.
WowWow omg just amazing I live in Va and I’m on vacation in Las Vegas and i can still play!
Good but it was a very long andIt was so much better now that is not going down
Ps5/phoneVery cool it’s just like a ps5 but on a phone if you have a small phone these buttons will be giant we should have a setting to
put the buttons smaller !!
Xbox need pay gamepass stream game and PlayStationXbox need pay for gamepass for play game phone and Sony play free remote phone and android any play game and also download game
and you have improve this app feedback and twitter PlayStation official page and I hope see new updates every day and good day
Really Good App.This app really helps when you aren’t at home. Love the app.
Make this like the PS4 appThe PS4 second screen was perfect for me is put PS4 in rest mode it allowed me to use as keyboard whenever I had to text either in
game chat or in playstation message
Awesome for when sister is hogging the tv1This app is great, but the video quality get very low
It’s legs hardWhen done game or just doing nothing the game or a title screen black sword and to the point it just kicks me out
Keyboard map brokenIf you use a password for your ps5, the keyboard mapping to gamepad buttons is wrong. The numbers 1 and 4 are mapped to the same
key. Can’t take advantage of remote play if you can’t unlock your console.
Good enoughYou’ll want a controller; a low ping connection on the PS4/5 end and a fast Wi-Fi/5G connection on your phone but it’s a good
enough solution till Sony decides to launch a proper cloud solution.
Why I put two starsI keep getting a error that I put my email or password is wrong
Need more supportI been using this for awhile it work amazing on PS5 I got zero problem with connection but when I do play ps4 it be slow
connection n sometime freeze or quit on me
Best thing ever! But…I totally rock this! All the features and consoles plus the ability to play nearby! But, i would like if there were a type of app
where you can sign in and play your games on the cloud instead of directly on the console.
Thats all i have!
I forgot my passwordI forgot my password but then I remember my password then I connected my phone to my ps4 then it work really good
Ps3If only this app had an option to connect to ps3 😥
Apple TV Support?So what are the odds of adding this app to the Apple TV? Is there a reason why it wouldn’t be available on the Apple TV? I’m
pretty confident the Apple TV has the necessary specs needed to run the app on the device. Sony, please make this happen.
Sincerely, Apple and Sony consumer!
App isn’t opening, crashes immediatelyHi
- I reset my iPhone 12
- Updated to latest iOS
- Deleted the app and redownloaded it
- Updated the app
The app still doesn’t open. It crashes as soon as I click on the app. Help!
Other than that it’s a great app, works on my iPad Pro very well.
KaiThis app is the best ever 10-10 I can play gta rp on my phone now
Cool but needs a little updateOk so it is cool to play on your iPad/iPhone but it is just really annoying and hard to control so if you can get a any controller
and connect it and you can play that would be awesome so please update it
Just needs one thingI love this app, to where I can use my phone but the connection interruption is annoying I’m giving it 5 stars because of the
quality of the app itself but it’s the connection that’s horrible please fix.
Great while using a controllerUsing remote play from a PS5 to an iPad with a DualSense. I was honestly surprised adaptive triggers and haptic feedback worked
with the app. Makes the trips away from home less boring when there’s nothing to do.
ReviewYou guys need to let me control YouTube how y’all gonna make me watch trending vids only 🗿
More Support?I want to see this work with Apple TV! Seems easy enough to pair my PS5 controller to it and enjoy streaming my game on another
rooms TV.
Great but…I use this app with the backbone controller witch works very well most of the time but it always disconnects whenever the app goes
in the background idk if it can be helped but it is a bit annoying.
Please fixI loved this before the new update. But now the app won’t even open. Please fix
Power’s BACK!They fixed the gray bars and made a small improvement with background streaming. Now we just need more performance improvements
and the ability to stream cloud gaming!
GreatLove this app, been using for quite some time now but ever since the update last week every time I open the app it just kicks me
out entirely, I’ve even tried to uninstall and reinstall again but it’s still the same.
AmazingLove it you guys have almost perfected this works great on iPad Pro and my phone with backbone
App won’t open iOS 14.3.1App crashes upon launch after update
oh you are the PS five or PS4Like it and I just love it because the PS five controller mind gonna get your surprise and make you really happy so I like it
sometimes and I just like it because PS4 really make you happy and my neighbor has a PS4
Needs an updateWeird looking on a 13 pro max. Not a great experience.
Needs full screenWorks great with the ps5 and the new backbone PlayStation version of the controller but the screen is a bit small on a regular
iPhone wish it could fit the screen a bit better
Almost perfectAn Apple TV app version would be a powerhouse.

Not the best remoteI downloaded so I could switch between streaming services without using my controller but this app stops working as soon as you
open a media app.
Great but missing somethingIt’s great and all but it needs to update it to PlayStation cloud because when i see Xbox cloud its good it should be like it
but instead its lagging and broken when they can update and make a cloud for it pls update it to get all of us PlayStation cloud
pls listen to my advise pls
TVyou cannot use it to fund something on any tv network such as netflix,hulu,tubi (ect.) it only works on gameplays
Configurable?Am I missing something or are the controls on the remote screen not configurable? OneCast for Xbox had that feature 5 years ago.
Any chance for an update?
badused to be good before the Portal now it refuses to connect
OkWhy in God’s name do you need to add your address just to play games on your phone?
Future up grades but upgrade on streamThe app is great but they are still problems it needs upgrading the app to stream I test the app but it doesn’t work stream
I’m a big fan of PlayStation but I recommend a new app of stream and fast access on play games streaming.
Network IssuesI've recently been getting the network connection is too slow for remote play when I have the highest speed on everything. Will
there be another update soon?
Bros lagging 💀It’s good, it works, it’s very laggy and sometimes just stops.
Please fix bugsSometime the app won’t connect to my ps it just says “checking the network” for along time. Then when I do connect it Play
fine for a while then in the game I’m playing my character just start moving by itself. Love the app but hate the bugs.
Not so goodKeeps disconnecting need to fix
I’m having issues with using the R2 and L2 ButtonHelp I don’t know why it does not want to work when playing this and I’m gonna check COD next, Please fix this.
Keyboard issueGood app but the phone keyboard feature seems to work only on the menu and not inside games. It would greatly improve
communication for games with in game chat.
AnnoyedIt doesn’t always show the joysticks making it somewhat useless to me.
HelpIt used to work but now whenever i try connecting it to my ps5 it says there it already a device using remote play and i cant
connect
So much potentialThis is the future the only issue I’ve encountered is the controller delay when playing multiplayer games like mlb , cod while
using iOS like my iPad Pro. Fix this and it’s perfect
It’s fun but not at the same timeI love how good it play but it’s annoying required to have your PlayStation
great if you have internetdont try to run this on data, buttons are not as quick to react as a real controller so definitely dont expect to have the time of
your life playing your PS4/5 other than at home
ConnectionHi there Sony. I try to play on my iPhone 14 pro max from this app and barely works when I’m home. W hen I’m outside nothing
at all.I have stable connectivity but the app have issues with ps5 connectivity. I’m not sure what is exactly.
Please fix the passcode button mappingThere is a duplicate button for the passcode. Meaning you can’t correctly input your passcode because it’s missing a certain
button I believe there two down buttons 1 and 4. Missing the left button
Mute optionI just want the ability to mute the app instead of changing the sound settings in each individual game. I sometimes listen to
music or podcasts while using the app and it's a terrible experience.
Eh..It’s alright but it’s kinda laggy, and affects my gameplay.
Needs work but has potentialMy only complaint is the 8bitdo controller doesn’t let you use remote play, I have to use the touchscreen or my PS4 controller,
and it needs more virtual gamepad customization so you can move around touchscreen buttons to your liking
Powerful but needs to be optimizedIt’s a useful tool, but performance is quite poor on my brand new iPhone 14 pro. Low frame rate makes browsing unpleasant.
Can’t connect since update ios16It was working fine before, but it won’t let me connect since I update ios16, always show me error 80001fff, please fix it
Full screen support for iPhone 14 pro max!!Please add full screen mode for iPhones. The black borders take away a lot from screen dimensions. Please add it 🙏🙏🙏
Screen optionAdd full screen…. It would be nice to take advantage of the 14 pro max. Even if the ratio causes a zoom let us of the choice
The app will not work.This app will not work for my son.
HiIt always says check connection but there never seems to be any thing wrong with the connection
Fix the connection issues!I keep trying to play my game and there is always connection issues. It’s very frustrating and laggy. Please fix or tell me a
way to fix it. Overall, it’s aight.
It’s alrightIt’s cloud gaming… it’s not great. But it’s not bad either. It runs fair if your internet is decent. Now you can play gta5
on the go. Boom Shakalaka boom.
Not bad but not goodDefinitely works for 30% of games. Anything fast paced isn’t really meant for this. Even forgetting the latency there are still
stability issues - overall its okay but could be much better
Please perfect this appMake this app better please it’s been years and it’s not as good as it should be
needs update that you can connect ps5 and ps4 at ti have a ps4 but i also have a ps5 and it would not connect
ProblemPlay station can make a new ps vita? Can play games from PS5 and PS4
OkSoftware update fixed the issues
9/8/22 Update PerformanceAfter downloading the update today, there is a noticeable downgrade in the connection and performance.
Extremely laggyI use this app to basically screen record my clips in my capture galley. It’s lag is insane. You also can’t get rid of the PS
logo or anything on the bottom so it’s kind of unfortunate but works none the less I guess.
Fortnite ProblemI was playing fortnite with a controller cause my mic is broken. It affects my sensitivity and it affects how I play. I don’t
like it pls fix
Needs work, on iPhone 13 at leastIt runs perfectly on my network I just don’t like how it doesn’t go full screen and uses static grey bars on the side which
will eventually cause burn in on the oled screen.
LagThe app is extremely laggy at the moment, even though I have good internet speeds
3 stars because..Its a real good concept but the buttons are kinda janky and whenever i turn in a game i spin in circles, please fix this. Kind
regards.
Please allow for a media controller functionThe app works for game but not any media apps. I don’t care for watching them on my phone, I would just the ability to control
and use the phone as a media remote.
