The app paired instantly with my PS4. I like the functionality and it works great as it's intended. You can control the PS4 from your phone in some ways. For example, you can power it on from rest mode and navigate menus and type from your phone keyboard to the PS4. I just don't understand why this can't be integrated into the main Playstation App like before. It doesn't make sense to have 2 separate apps when it can be an all in one, more convenient app.

So many negative reviews by folks who think Second Screen means "play games on your phone." Lol no. Second Screen means "when another (typically small) screened device such as a smartphone, tablet, portable games console, etc., provides a view, interface or even game mode into a console game that is unique from what is currently being displayed on the TV." It's not the same as Remote Play. It's not Sony's fault if you're a gamer who doesn't understand this concept. It's not false advertising.

Since you guys separated this app from the main one, can you add a few features, like, as follows: ability to use your phone as a controller, and or the ability to see your own TV screen on you phone, that way I can play games in another room, take my gaming with me. If these features are added I will rate 5 stars, and buy a PSP Plus, probably gonna buy one anyway, but still. Edit: You guys made another app that allows remote play from phone so I am happy
