Ratings and reviews

Worked for a few days, then started to give the error of "Lost network connection" even with stable internet and a direct line from my console to mobile device. If they were to fix the connection issues, make the interface for the PC version similar to the Phone app and allow us to use the mouse and keyboard instead of the controller through the remote system, Id happily rate it 5 stars. But until then, 1/5. would not recommend yet.

New update completely broke app. I use the app all the time and would probably usually give it 4 or 5 stars. But this new update that hit around mid September 2025 won't even allow me to log in. It doesn't crash, it doesn't take time to try to log in, it just immediately says "error, try again later". Well, it's two days of trying later and still can't log in, even after uninstalling and restarting my phone. Since I can't log in, I can't access my PlayStation remotely, and it's pointless.

Hasn't worked in the last few days. Cause ? Maybe, I did a phone update (Galaxy Z Fold 5). But now I get a screen telling me to log into the PSN. But when I click to log in, I get an error message immediately (not even the opportunity to enter log in info, no other buttons to push to change settings or anything). Also, I have the PSN app, and am logged in and can use it with no issues (not an account issue). I have Android version 15. Edit. Added a couple stars, log in issue resolved.
