Warnings
It is important to take control into account when configuring the PS4 in the mobile. Since the Remote Play application requires you to connect the PlayStation 4 directly to the computer , its range may be limited. There is a wireless adapter that you can buy and connect to the remote control of the PS4.
Another option to avoid this problem is to have two controls, in this way one connects to the computer to recognize it and the other connects to the PlayStation 4 to work wirelessly.
