How to Play PS4 Games On Any Android Device | In-depth

. , hi there guys today i'm going to show you how to play any ps4 games on android, you can do it on any android smartphone so tablet which you have both within the last two to three years notice that it is a complete step by. step in the video on the topic as well, so hopefully you will not have any doubt, once you have reached the end of the. video, so without further ado let's get started. grab your smartphone go to the play, store and download the app called ps, remote play, don't worry it's official and from sony theoretically any android device which runs on android 5.0 or above system software can play ps4 games using an on-screen controller but if you have something hot, which you have bought recently which is, running on an android version 10.0 or. higher. you can connect your dualshock 4 via, bluetooth to play your favorite ps4. games. as indented fortunately this device is. on android 11 so i can show you all the. things you can do in the best case. scenario, before that connect your android device with an available wi-fi network make. sure you have connected to a steady and. decent bandwidth internet connection. official recommendations are 10 mega bits per second up and down or higher, or if you don't have that you should have at least a 5 megapixel connection. to renting smoothly, if you have anywhere below that just. forget the remote play and enjoy your games on the console with all its glory also you don't have to be on the same. network as your ps4 to make it work. a remote play will only work on wifi, network so you can't use your mobile data, unless you're using it as a hotspot from. another device now before we go into. explain the console side of things let, me just show you what this app can do in. the settings for the best experience it's pretty straightforward once you're. on the app for the first time tap the. sign in option which will bring you to, the playstation network sign-in page on your default browser. under your psn id credential hit sign in and you'll be redirected back to the app. and that's how it can automatically find, your ps4 anywhere on the globe if it's plugged in and turned on and now we'll, ask your permission to access your, information from both the app and your device. it is used to improve the app or user experience anime use for other things such as show you personalized content. recommendations or ad if you don't care. about stuff like that just tap the confirm and continue, otherwise go to modify settings and. choose limit data option, then tap confirm and continue button now we'll show you the instructions you use the dual shock for with your android, device let's just keep that for now i'll be, showing that later on the video now we have done with the initial setup, procedure so let's go straight for the remote play feature you'll be asked to choose your, console it is the only remote play app not the. old one it has built-in support for ps5, as well. as you know we are here to show you the. ps4 remote play feature so we need to, choose the ps4 but wait before we do that let me just. show you the remote play settings real, quick so go to settings gear icon on the top. now you will see this option most of them are pretty self-explanatory. so i'm gonna go for the most important, settings which is the essential part. which will be affecting your remote play streaming experience directly, and that is video quality for remote play option click on it and here you can, see the settings for both ps5 and ps4 so we are going to the ps4 side and you. can choose the resolution and frame rate. for the stream.

which is a choice i can make for you if. you have the recommended specs that i. mentioned earlier definitely go for the high resolution and high frame rate, and if you're lying behind the recommended specs then a lower standard option on both resolution and frame rate might give you an uninterrupted, experience for me i have more than the recommended specs so i will go for the, best resolution which is 1080p in this, case. and high frame rate hopping it would be. about 30. if you're curious these are what i'm using, a wi-fi six router 150 megabits per, second connection, and on the console side a ps4 pro if you. don't know you can only choose the. resolution of the stream to 1080p aka, the best in this case. if you're using a ps4 pro console, otherwise you might be stuck with 720p. it's not a bad thing on a device as. small as the size of your palm, but you go up to the full hd resolution, on the remote play you have to have a, ps4 pro model, and please remember if you see anything, like a frame skipping or audio issue try, lowering the settings one step at a time, until you find a sweet spot and that's. all you need to know on the app side for. now, so let's move on to the ps4 and set up. the remote play connection over there. on ps4 it's pretty simple first of all make sure your console is connected to the internet either wide or wirelessly and using the same psn account which you connected your remote play app with and also make sure your console is. updated to the latest system software, which is 8.03 as of now, in order to use the new remote play app, now go to settings navigate. remotely connection settings and enable. remote play option. and that's all you need to do on your. console so let's go back to the ps. remote play app and start a connection, from now on it's just a matter of selecting this ps4 option and i will. search for the ps4 remotely and, establish a connection like this. and you're good to go it might take a, few minutes but in most case, i will get connected almost under a, minute at least that's what i'm, experiencing right now or if you're having trouble establishing. a connection with your ps4 this way there is always a manual connection method and let me quickly explain that as well. let's go back and select the ps4 option, once again. while it's auto searching you will see the link manually option down here hit that and will ask you a code from your ps4 so go to the remote play settings as we did before on the, ps4 and click on the add device button now we'll show you a code that you can, then type into your ps remote play app like this, once you did that hit the link and there, we go it added the device it established a connection with your ps4 manually. and from this point on you can play your. ps4 games remotely and you don't have to. go through all the setup procedure when you're in a mood to play something, whenever you want to play a ps4 game, remotely go to ps remote play app choose your ps4 which you have previously. connected with, and you're ready to play just like that, and you know something you can put your. ps4 to rest mode when you want to. disconnect the remote play session using the ps remotely app, for that go to settings gear icon on the, bottom left corner of your screen, and choose disconnect when you press that you will see a pop-up which says. this remote play session will be disconnected and under that you will see, an option which is put the connected. console to rest mode, by enabling this option it will disconnect your session and put your, console to rest mode remotely, later if you want you can use the remote, play to wake the ps4 system from the, rest mode as well so if you're away from your console it.

is a nice feature to have because, without accessing your console. physically you can kind of turn it on or, off not really but rest mode is very close. to powering off the console because it's. not using any of the major resources of. your console and it is only using a little amount of, electricity while it's on rest mode. wait it isn't finished yet i have. something else to show you as well, normally at this point you're ready to go or can start playing the game already, with the on-screen controller if you're not a fan of that you can, always use the ds4 with your android. device wirelessly. or you can even attach it to your, smartphone and play like a real portable. ps4 setup no doubt it is a complete portable ps4, experience so let me dive in and show. you how to connect your gel shock 4 to. the android device real quick, pick up your ds4 and keep pressing the, ps button plus share button, simultaneously, and your computer will start blinking. like this which means it's on bluetooth pairing mod now take your smartphone or android. device go to the bluetooth settings as. you do normally and search and pair the controller as, you do with any other bluetooth device which you're familiar with. once you have done that you can go to the remote play and directly use the. dualshock 4. as an input and there is no need to, tweak or enable any settings for this to, work on the remote play app to disconnect the ds4 you had to, manually turn off the bluetooth option on your android device which will turn off the controller as. well and to repair with your android. device again just press the ps button as, you used to be, but make sure your bluetooth option is. enabled on the android device. to use the controller again with your. ps4 console you have to connect it with. the micro usb cable to the ps4. and pair manually anyway if you have multiple controllers laying around i. recommend you to spare one for the portable experience exclusively and keep it paired it will avoid the. hassle of pairing and unpairing with each device whenever you want to play the other way. and finally let me show you the ds4 the, smartphone clamp holder for the complete, portable experience, it's available on amazon and you can get, one for below 10 if you're interested i, will put the link below for the, particular one which i'm using right now there are very many varieties to choose. from just search online and get the one you like the installation process is pretty simple, just open the shroud and wrap it around your ds4, press these two ends of the clamp holder, each other and you will hear a click. sound which means it's hold everything. in place. now take your smartphone and slide it in, like this it is a spring-loaded mechanism like you can see on some. selfie sticks, or the smartphone holder for cars and, stuff now be holding the control and. smartphone firmly together as a single. portable gaming unit, and we have a dial here to adjust the, screen position to whichever way. pleases you the most now you're all set so enjoy playing your favorite ps4 games. on your android device. from anywhere on the globe hope you like the video leave a like if you do, subscribe to watch more and enable the, bell icon to get notified whenever we, upload a new one. if you found it helpful why not share. with your friends as well and also. comment your experience and opinions, down below. would be a great thing to do this is me. your host emma rafiq, thank you so much for watching see you, soon with another one . you,
