PS Remote Play

You can play on your PlayStation on your Android smartphone's screen with PS Remote Play, the app that allows you to resume your games on your phone.

Play on your PlayStation through your phone's screen

PlayStation players who also own a Sony Xperia smartphone have some exclusive benefits. One of them is the PS Remote Play System. What's it all about? Well, it comes down to never having to fight over the TV again. This technology allows us to play on our console through the screen of our phone: you can even continue your games where you left them if your father, son or son interrupted you and removed the remote control to play theirs watch favorite programs.

The easiest way to a portable PlayStation

This technology is really useful to be able to play anywhere you want, although it also has a tiny disadvantage and that is that it is only compatible with Sony phones of the Xperia range and not all, so you have to check if yours is compatible. That reduces the target audience quite a bit, but there's not much more we can do since the app is only geared towards those users.

The only other requirements are that your phone and video console are connected to the same WiFi network. To keep everything running smoothly, we recommend you have a fast internet connection, preferably a home network, so forget about connecting to a public hotspot. Some users have complained that certain games aren't compatible, so you'd better pray for your favorite titles to be supported. We also need to keep our console's software up to date. After that, just grab your DualShock gamepad and start playing.

If everything is in order, you can play whenever you want, even if you're never allowed to use the TV in the living room to wipe out the next final boss.
