Sony Interactive Entertainment released today PS4 6.50 Firmware update, which adds Remote Play for iOS devices and more.
Aside from the PlayStation Vita and PC being able to do a remote play, Sony has now allowed other devices such as iOS or Android to play your games anywhere. To download the app, head to their respective App Store such as the Google Play and App Store for iOS devices.
To use the remote play on devices such as iOS, players will be using an on-screen controller to navigate their way to the game and the dashboard of the PS4.
Here are the complete patch notes for PS4 6.50 Firmware Update:
