A new PlayStation mobile app will roll out today to iOS and Android devices, sporting a new UI and a series of updated features.

The app adds voice chat and native PS Store integration on your smartphone, enabling “fast and smooth shopping and browsing, with the ability to remotely download games and add-ons directly to your PS4 and PS5,” Sony today detailed.

The app will also let you remotely launch games on PS5 alongside console storage management and the ability to sign into your PS5 from your smart device.

If you don’t have the app as yet, you can download it via the following links:

iOS
Android

The PS5 heads to store shelves on 12 November.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
