In addition to mobile technology, one of the passions we share in Andro4all are video games. So much so that many of us have what is perhaps the most popular console of the moment, la Sony PlayStation 4.
With over 100 million units sold worldwide, Sony's black console has one of the highest quality catalogs and although its successor is already on the horizon, titles like Assassin's Creed Valhalla, The Last of Us II or Ghost of Tsushima come to confirm it is PlayStation 4 for a while.
So, if you have PlayStation DNA in your body and you also have an Android smartphone, you should know that they are there many apps in the Google store with which you can get the most out of the Sony console. Let's take a look together.
PlayStation App
How could it be otherwise, we started with the official PlayStation app for smartphones. An indispensable app for all of us who own a Sony console, it allows us to log into our PSN account to, among other things, check events, trophies, redeem codes as well as enter the PS Store and be able to acquire new titles.
In short, with PlayStation App we can:
- Find out which friends are online and what games they are playing
- Receive notifications, game alerts and invitations
- Customize our profile
- See progress and compare trophies
- Keep up to date with our friends' latest activities and the profiles we follow
- Buy games and add-ons from PlayStation Store and add them to our PS4 so they're ready when we get home
PS4 Remote Play
Whether it's because our home TV is busy or because we want to play our favorite game and are away from our console, PS4 Remote Play is the perfect tool for anyone who can't live without their beloved Sony console or just one minute.
Setting up this app is really simple and once done it will allow us to enjoy our favorite PlayStation 4 video games on computer or on Android and iOS devices, even miles away from our home.
PlayStation Messages - Find out which friends are online
When you like video games you always meet people with the same tastes. The new generation consoles are much more than a piece of plastic to hang out with, they have also become a place to talk to our acquaintances and even meet new people.
PlayStation Messages allows us to stay connected with our PlayStation friends simply by using our smartphone. Thanks to this app we can see who is online and see what games they play or send text and voice messages as well as photos to our friends or circles.
PS4 second screen
It may not be one of the best known Sony and PlayStation 4 apps, but for that very reason it is still quite useful. With PS4 Second Screen we can use our mobile device to manage the basic controls of our console, show information about compatible games with a second screen or directly to enter text on our PS4 thanks to our smartphone.
While there are a few other Sony apps in the Android Play Store, undoubtedly these are the essentials that every owner of a PlayStation 4 console should have installed on their Android and iOS device. Thanks to them, we can take the PlayStation experience everywhere and video games have long ceased to be entertainment to become a way of life.
Of course if you love PlayStation games, you know that in the Play Store there are some ports of legendary PlayStation 2 titles that you should download yes or yes to your smartphone. Also, if you want to try PS4 games on your mobile, we leave you what we think they are the best PS4 games.
