    Apologies if there is already a thread on this but is anyone trying the remote play on IOS devices....I find it pretty unplayable over decent WIFI, very choppy and buggy.

    Am I missing something?

    Not IOS but had a bash an Android phone the other night - just that lonely mountain cycling game. Nice novelty but I can't see myself ever using it properly. Streaming to PC on the other hand I've used quite a bit in the last few weeks, very handy feature.

    Tried it this week, my connection is just a 4G router so it's pretty poor anyway. Found it to be playable but with the odd stutter and some freezing. I imagine this will improve over time and whenever I get good internet.

    I tried FIFA and found it pretty bad on good WIFI, a lot of stuttering and pixilation.

    I found COD better but still a bit stuttering to have an effective multiplayer game.....hopefully it improves as its a nice feature.

    I know I hope there is some sort of fix .. hopefully someone with virgin who can play without issue will let us know what we are doing wrong !

    I've Virgin media (500mb) and it's ok on mobile. Would want a new phone maybe + set it to 5ghz.


    Streaming to laptop isn't too bad but the quality varies. A few days ago it was running brilliantly with zero lag, then another day later it went crap.

    Tried streaming WatchDogs Legion from my One X to my iPad Pro last night and it was... fine but the lag made aiming quite difficult.

    Provider: Virgin Media 500mb
    Router: Google Nest Wifi
