Ps Remote Ios



Install [PS Remote Play] on your mobile device, such as an Android™ smartphone or tablet, iPhone, or iPad, and then connect to your PS5 console.

A while ago, Sony introduced the PS4 Remote Play which allows you to stream your PS4 games. It was available for just a few devices before Sony brought it to more including the Xperia smartphones. Since then, there has not been any news of its availability for iOS devices but now there is. Yes, you can now officially stream your PS4 games to your iOS device! All you need is an iPhone or iPad running iOS 13 or iPadOS 13 or later and any model of wireless DualShock 4 controller for the PlayStation 4. Here’s how to get in the action. Hi, this video shows you how to get the PS4 Remote Play on your iOS device such as a iPod, iPad or iPhone. It also shows you the best way to control it by us.

Remote Play is a feature that lets you stream your PS4 screen to another device. It initially launched only on PS Vita and Xperia phones before getting an app for Windows and macOS. If you have been utilizing the PS Remote Play to stream your PlayStation 5 gaming to your iPhone or iPad over the past few months, and disappointed that you can only connect your PS4 DualShock 4 controller via Bluetooth to your Apple device, this upcoming update should bring a smile to your face.

Get ready

You’ll need the following to use Remote Play:

  • Android™ smartphone or tablet, iPhone, or iPad
    For details about system requirements, go to Google Play™ or the App Store.

    Always update your PS5 console to the latest version of the system software.
  • An account for PlayStation™Network
    Use the same account that you use for your PS5 console. If you don’t have an account, you’ll need to create one first.

It took a long time, but now the iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV finally support PlayStation 4 DualShock 4 controllers and some models of Xbox One controllers. It’s super easy to set up these controllers, too, as you’ll see below.

For this story, we’ll focus on pairing the Sony DualShock 4 with an iPhone or iPad. All you need is an iPhone or iPad running iOS 13 or iPadOS 13 or later and any model of wireless DualShock 4 controller for the PlayStation 4.

Here’s how to get in the action.

How to pair a DualShock 4 with an iPhone or iPad

  1. Open the Settings app.

  2. Press Bluetooth. Bluetooth is probably already on, but if it isn’t, flip the Bluetooth toggle at the top of the next page to green.

  3. While the Bluetooth menu is still open, grab your DualShock 4 controller and make sure it’s charged.

  4. Press the PlayStation button and the Share button and the same time and hold them down for a few seconds. The light on the back of your DualShock 4 should start flashing intermittently.

  5. On your iPhone or iPad, you should see “DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controller” pop up under Other Devices in the Bluetooth menu. Press it.

  6. The light on the back of your DualShock 4 should immediately switch to a reddish-pink color. Your DualShock 4 is now paired.

How to disconnect your DualShock 4 from your iPhone or iPad

Once you’re done playing with the DualShock 4, here’s how to turn it off. If you want to use the controller, you simply need to hold down the PlayStation button for 10 seconds. On the iPhone, the most convenient method is to use the Control Center.

  1. Open your Control Center on a Face ID-compatible iPhone by swiping diagonally from the upper right of your screen toward the lower left. On a Touch ID-compatible iPhone, swipe up from the bottom of the display.

  2. Press and hold down on the blue Bluetooth icon.

  3. In the menu that pops up, press and hold down the icon that says Bluetooth: On.

  4. You should see “DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controller” in the options that pop up. Press it, and your controller will immediately disconnect.

And here’s the (slightly) less convenient method:

  1. Open the Settings app and press Bluetooth.

  2. Under My Devices, you’ll see “DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controller.” To the right, you’ll see a letter “i” within a blue circle. Press it.

  3. In the menu that pops up, press Disconnect. The controller should immediately stop working.

When you want to use the controller again, just press the DualShock 4’s PlayStation button and it should immediately start working.

There’s a good chance it might accidentally turn on this way if you have the DualShock 4 stuffed in your bag. If you’re on a trip, it’s wise to simply unpair the device and re-pair it when you want to play. As you’ve seen above, doesn’t take long.

Ios Remote Control App

To unpair a DualShock 4, just repeat the steps above and press “Forget This Device” instead of Disconnect.
