## What is Pylux?

Play your PS4 or PS5 game library on your iPhone or iPad — at home or from anywhere. Free, open source, and nothing locked behind a paywall.

YOUR CONSOLE. ANY SCREEN.
Remote Play puts your PS4 or PS5 on your iPhone or iPad — whether you're in another room or across the world. Full controller input, smooth video, the game exactly as it runs on your console.

INTERNET PLAY
Access the your Game Library and Game Catalog directly from your device. Stream games without your console powered on.

BUILT FOR REAL PLAY
• Physical controllers work — DualSense, DualShock 4, MFi, and more connect over Bluetooth
• Rumble and haptics pass through to your controller or your iPhone's Taptic Engine
• On-screen touch controls when you need them, out of the way when you don't
• Swap face button mapping for third-party controllers

QUALITY THAT ADAPTS
Pylux adjusts video quality to your network automatically. Turn it up manually when your connection is solid, or dial it back when bandwidth is tight.

FREE. ALL OF IT.
Pylux is open source, community-build, and completely free. There is no premium tier and no features behind a paywall.

### 3/5 — The app keeps crashing

*2026-08-20*

I like this app, but after 30 minutes of gameplay the app crashes

### 1/5 — it nowork

*2026-08-08*

it no work

### 5/5 — Works better than PS remote app

*2026-07-27*

This is an absolutely amazing apps. Provides greater stability and functionality than the playstation app from Sony. Allows any controller, better and more freedom to configure audio/video. Try it today!

### 5/5 — ا

*2026-07-10*

The app is great and I hope you don't make it paid. There is a small problem: if I could move the button locations, that would be awesome."

### 5/5 — Remote play for all my P5 games

*2026-06-07*

It does connect and plays well when its working but it my experience it tends to freeze a lot also

### 5/5 — Works

*2026-05-27*

Works great!

### 1/5 — Can’t trust it

*2026-05-21*

Too many red flags to name. I’d be very careful sharing my info on this app. It’s the same developer of PSstream, which seems to have done a cash grab before being abandoning the app and disappearing on Steam due to secret reasons. Can’t trust this.

### 1/5 — Seems suspect

*2026-05-21*

Tried it, just too many red flags to list. I’d recommend avoiding it. Seems to me that it’s from the same developer as PSstream which disappeared not too long ago.
