Particular and you can even find videos that show you how to unlock it for me one of the most practical and useful tips that not many people know and that you can do on your playstation 4. in this age of social networks communication on video game consoles is extremely important and that’s precisely

Why the playstation 4 allows you to send and receive messages to your friends however writing messages in the dual shock and especially messages that are relatively long is not the most comfortable thing in the world to do on your controller that is why you can press r3 or rather

Push down the right analog stick to use the gyroscope of your controller when writing a message to improve your typing speed however an even more efficient way to read and write messages is with the playstation app on your mobile phone but there is another app that many people do

Not know about which is called the second screen app in this application you can write using your cell phone and you can see how the text is filling up on the screen of the playstation 4. we like this option a lot since it is a hybrid between the agility that you get

When texting with your cell phone and still use the playstation 4 at the same time a pretty good option that you always have to keep an eye on sure you have a lot of friends on your console but of course not all friends are equal there’s some friends that are more special let’s

Call them vip friends if you want the playstation to notify you when these special friends connect you can do it you just have to press the triangle button on your friends list and select your favorite friends so you will always be able to know when they are connected

If you have a game where the text fonts look very small or for example you have some limitation with your vision the playstation can help you by zooming in so everything looks a little bit bigger you only have to activate the zoom option in the accessibility menu and to

Use it press and hold the playstation button plus square this will make the image look bigger and you can even move the zoom obviously it also works in games this allows you to appreciate in more detail all the efforts that the developers have put into developing your favorite game

Or simply improve your quality of life while you are playing with your playstation have you noticed that your playstation 4 doesn’t feel the same as when you bought it it feels a bit slower the navigation is not that fast anymore and the feeling of playing with it is not the same as

When it was brand new but don’t despair there is a way to make it like new the first step is to completely turn off your playstation that means not to put it on rest mode but to completely turn it off you will also need to connect your controller to the console through the

Usb cable and keep the ps button pressed until you hear the power on sound twice there you select the option to rebuild the database and you will notice the difference in speed in your console and no this will not erase your games or saves since this is an official

Procedure recommended by sony it’s so fun to play with friends and even more so on the same couch next to each other right but there are times that unfortunately this is not possible however the playstation 4 has a pretty cool option to help you with that

There are some cases in which some games do not have online multiplayer and even if they do perhaps your friend does not have the same game as you for these cases playstation has share play be careful this is not the same as sharing your account or sharing games

This is something else if you are playing and you press the share button you can invite a friend to see what you are watching or for him to take control of the game you are playing this is also extremely practical if you are in a part

Of a level that you cannot pass you can pass your controller to your friend remotely and he can help you play better yet there is an option that allows both players to immediately play the same game so both of you can play fifa at the same time with a single copy

Of fifa from anywhere in the world how cool is that how are you turning off your dualshock controller do not tell me that you entered the menu then go to the part that says devices and then select your dualshock and then you turn it off right

No no no the true super players leave the playstation button pressed until the controller is turned off a much more practical and much more useful way that makes you look like a true super player what happens if your friend comes to visit and play games with you but you

Only have one playstation 4 controller well many people do not know that if you have a playstation vita lying around you can use it as if it were another controller that’s right there is an option to connect your playstation vita to your playstation 4 and in fact you can make

The game be displayed on the playstation vita screen it is almost like having a nintendo switch but from playstation and best of all this releases your dual shock so that you and your friend can enjoy great games like neck in cooperative mode yeah the dual shock 4

Battery is one of the worst batteries of this generation in part because of the super strong light bar on the controller it can blind you if you’re not careful enough the good thing is that playstation 4 gives you a lot of options to improve the battery of your controller considerably

If you go to settings then devices and then controllers you can do things like lower the volume of the controller and turn off the vibration which helps a lot with the battery you can also modify the intensity of the brightness of your dual shock light bar so that you can play

More comfortably in environments that are darker and at the same time conserve more battery so while this controller battery is not amazing at least you have options if at any point your controller is behaving strangely whether it’s not responding as it should or is randomly disconnecting or is just plain crazy

There are a few things you can do to fix it on the back of your dualshock 4 there is a button to reset it you only need a pointy object that fits inside the controller hole keep this button pressed until your controller turns off and that’s it

In most cases this can fix your controller and make it feel brand new the share button on the playstation 4 is one of the best inventions this console has ever had but unfortunately the way it works by default is totally inefficient hopefully you can change it

If you go to the settings menu and then select sharing and broadcast you can modify the type of behavior of the shared button and change it to the easy screenshot mode from now on when you press the share button a screenshot will be taken if you press it twice quickly a

Video will be recorded and if you keep it pressed the share button menu will appear this way is much faster to be able to record a video while you are playing for me one of the most practical tips that not many people know if you are the parent or guardian of a minor

You should know that there are ways to control the content they play on the playstation 4 and even the amount of money they are allowed to spend on the console to start select the settings menu and see where it says parental control family management the system

Will ask you for a password and if you have never set one use zero zero zero zero from here you can start to put filters to the internet pages that can be seen on playstation 4 and also you can start creating and managing your family that is create profiles for each of your

Family members and put different restrictions on each one of them this way the same playstation 4 can be used by different members of the family both children and adults and you can also see how long they have been playing with the console and set limits on when and how

Much they can play also of course limit how much money can be spent on this playstation pretty neat right the playstation 4 is such a flexible console that it allows you to continue playing even without using your television that’s right you can use the remote play function that is remote play through a

Laptop a tablet or a lot of other devices and continue playing away from the tv obviously the performance of this function depends entirely on the quality of your internet connection and is preferable that your playstation 4 is connected by cable but it is extremely cool to see your console being controlled and displayed

By your mobile phone for some people this works pretty good but maybe not for others since sometimes they may perceive some lag or the connection cuts basically it all depends on how reliable your network connection is but this is another alternative that the playstation

4 gives you to play with and one of the most interesting functions of this console there are times when you turn on the playstation 4 to start playing and you really don’t want anyone else to distract you maybe you’re concentrating on a single player campaign or just watching netflix or youtube and don’t

Want any interference if you press the options button while hovering your profile you will be able to log in offline mode that way no one will realize that you are connected and hopefully no one will bother you this is much better than connecting an online mode and then

Switching to offline mode and if you change your mind later you can simply go to your profile again and select how you want others to see you if you are really really lazy and don’t want to turn on your tv after you turn on your playstation 4 there is an option

For that as well that’s right you simply have to go to settings and then to system there you select activate hdmi device link and if your tv supports it when you turn on your playstation 4 your television will also turn on and vice versa you can change each one of the buttons

On your dual shock 4. this is very important if let’s say you own several consoles and you always find yourself confused about which console you are playing and which button is in which place in addition if you have any accessibility limitation with the controller maybe because your hand

Cannot reach a specific button you can actually change the assignment of any button and replace it with another one very easily basically any button on the controller can be modified and you can even invert the operation of the analog sticks it’s super awesome that sony has implemented

These options so that all super players regardless of physical limitations can enjoy this wonderful console you can group games and applications in other words you can create folders and put content inside them for example you can create a folder only for driving games or a folder only for ps4 exclusives

You can rename the folder and also add games or applications that will be inside it it’s a very practical and very fast way to organize your entire video game collection using the folders on your playstation now an interesting fact did you know that the playstation 4 uses a

Power cord known as universal 8. this power cord has been used in the playstation 1 the playstation 2 the playstation 3 slim and the playstation 4. also a lot of printers use it so in a way we can say that this is the only playstation component that is fully

Retro compatible but seriously to conclude we’re going to show you how to make your playstation 4 perform better online which is the part that playstation 4 commonly lacks for this we are going to modify your network configuration so take a screenshot or picture of your old settings before changing it in case it

Don’t work this will work better with a network cable than if you use wifi but it can be done with wi-fi as well go to settings network and select your network connection that you always use once you are connected we will change the ip addresses manually put an ip

Address that no other device in your house has for example 100 27 the subnet mask 255 255 2550 and the gateway depends on your router but it is almost always 10 0 0 1. now let’s change the primary dns that’s where we will do the magic because if

You use 888 and then 8844 you will be using google’s dns the fastest there is obviously how effective this method is will depend on many factors such as your internet provider where you are in the world etc but many people have confirmed that their download speed and data

Upload speed have improved by using this method so you don’t lose anything by trying and if it doesn’t work you can put it as it was that way you’ll be playing with less lag and having better download speeds definitely one of the best secrets of the playstation 4. super players
