## Review summary

The PS4 Second Screen iOS app can be useful for remote control and quick text input on PS4, but is hampered by login failures, unreliable PS4 connectivity, and no PS5 support, with additional requests for streaming-app navigation.

### Pros

- Remote control: turn on the PlayStation, navigate the home screen, and even play on the phone.
- Fast text input for in-game chat via the phone.
- Works on PS4 with compatible second-screen games.
- Adds a cool, immersive second-screen experience for supported games (e.g., Astro Playroom).

### Cons

- Frequent sign-in/login failures across password, Gmail, and QR attempts.
- Consistent PS4 connection problems: PS4 not found or cannot connect across multiple networks.
- No PS5 support; users report it doesn’t work with PS5 and request compatibility.
- Unreliable performance requiring reinstall or losing functionality after use.
- Missing features like navigating streaming apps (YouTube, etc.) and broader input options.
