PXPlay works with the latest firmware. Please do not upgrade to a newer firmware version if available until it is proven that PXPlay is still working. However, if you have updated and PXPlay has stopped working, it will take some time for me to fix the problems. So please keep that in mind.

Ratings and reviews

After a few back and forths with the developer, I was finally able to sync up my PlayStation with the app. The issues with hooking up my PS through my PSN account, not having to go through a bunch of extra steps including having to put my IP address in, I can't give it a 5, but I can give it a strong 4. I thought the connection was pretty stable, only cutting at odd times, probably not fault or the app. There's a good amount of settings, which is nice. I definitely recommend this app

Instantly 1000 times better than Sony's app. Worth paying for. The Sony app constantly lagged, froze, was riddled with artifacts, and disconnected regardless of my settings, proximity to my router, and more than capable hardware. This app started strong and was near perfect with just a few minor settings tweaks. It starts the remote connection much faster, too.

Everything works very well. You will have to tinker with the settings to find that sweet spot for less/no frame-rate drop... 1 major thing I'm still figuring out: I couldn't play with friends. I have access to online, yes. But when it comes to actually inviting someone to join, they couldn't join. This is currently only on "Elden Ring", so I'll test out other games. 👍🏾
