If the Remote Play app on your PC or Mac doesn't find your PlayStation 4 automatically, you may need to manually pair the two before you can stream PS4 games. Fixing problems with streaming PlayStation 4 games Make sure that 'Stay Connected to the Internet' and 'Enable Turning On of PS4 from Network' are enabled.
Rest mode is a very low-powered state that puts the PS4 to sleep, but enables it to start up quickly when you want to use it.įrom the PS4 home screen go to Settings > Power Saving Settings > Set Features Available in Rest Mode. To enable this feature your PlayStation 4 must go into Rest mode rather than fully powering off when not in use. You can use Remote Play without having to physically turn on your PlayStation 4, which is handy if you're using Remote Play on a PC or Mac in a different location to your PS4 – or if you're just a little lazy.
