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. PS4 Remote Play finally comes to iOS. We explain how it works and what you have to do to play PlayStation 4 games on your iPhone or iPad.

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.

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.
• PS5 console
  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.
• High-speed internet connection
  As a standard, we recommend a high-speed connection with upload and download speeds of at least 5 Mbps. For best performance, we recommend a high-speed connection with upload and download speeds of at least 15 Mbps.

• You can’t use Remote Play on your mobile device’s cellular data network. A high-speed Wi-Fi® network is required.
• You can connect your wireless controller to your mobile device. To find out more about compatible devices and how to connect your wireless controller, see “Using the DUALSHOCK®4 wireless controller on another device”.
• To use voice chat, you’ll need a microphone, such as the built-in microphone on your mobile device.

Install the app

From Google Play™ or the App Store, download and install [PS Remote Play] on your mobile device. You can use the same app to connect to your PS5 console and PS4 console. You can also access Google Play™ or the App Store using the following 2D codes. You’ll only need to do these steps the first time you use the app.
