For anyone looking at this app, I was on the beta test it is fantastic and works very well indeed, even with fast paced online games. I'm in no way associated with the developers (I still have to buy the release from the app store!). My testing was done on an iPad Air 2 with the Steelseries Nimbus MFI controller.

Racing games are notorious for showing lag on remote play type services with this there was no slow down on Rocket League or Driveclub whilst playing over the internet for a good few hours.

Just the sort of app iOS and Playstation need!

Can anyone recommend a MiFi controller that has compatibility with all ds4 inputs? I have the Nimbus, but it doesn't seem to respond to L3/R3 presses.

Thanks
