In this video I take a second look at this controller for PlayStation remote gaming on iPhone: the Backbone One Playstation edition.
In this follow up video I answer some of the most common questions including:
– Do you need a PS4/PS5 console to use the controller?
– Can you use the controller away from home?
– Do you really need the Backbone Plus subscription?
– And more…!

So all those mentions of Google Stadia aged well….! RIP all you Stadia fans.
Why cant i use my controller it just shows the buttons on the screen and joysticks but my controller not working or even on the phone on and eveythamg explane
We have two PS5’s and we play battlefield would this allow a third family member to use backbone to play battlefield 2042?
Are you able to play it while your iHone’s in its case?
Hi I was wondering if this works on the iPhone 11? I searched everywhere and found no information
I have a question I been trying to search for an answer but can't find anywhere else, if I have ps5 and get sony backbone gen 2, do I need backbone subscription to remote play games for ps5 or can I access and play my Playstation games remotely with backbone without backbone subscription 🤔
"You cant play Playstation games using this controller on your iphone without a console, just cant be done." Will it work as a controller for controlling iOS apps only?
Does th backbone work on ps4
Can i play efootball,fcMobile and codm on my andriod or iphone phone only using this controller
Thanks man super helpful especially about the subscription
to those planning to get this to pair for ps5, dont. stop. just get the ps portal…i returned my bacbone today to bestbuy. and just got the portal…i didnt like the flimsy feel of backbone and when i get so active on buttons its getting errors on my iphone as not compatible accessory. i dont want to spend alot coz i have ps5 already but the gaming experience is trash in backbone…portal is still a different level so its worth the cost. peace.
So, you Don't need the Backbone app?
Says you don't need a subscription…
Then says the subscriptions kick in after the trial ends 😂
I love it..
But it doesn't play games that are free or games that you own without a subscription
Thank you
wait so what about xbox live/ gamepass? would u need that to be able to play with the xbox games?
I have a ps5 with an external hard drive with my ps4 games will I still be able to play my ps4 games on the backbone or is it just meant for ps5 games only ?
I cant afford subscriptions for my ps4 or ps5 consoles as well as a subscription for the backbone. Does this mean if I have a subscription for the backbone but not the consoles, I can't remote play games I own? surely not. I hope this isnt the case as Ive just bought the black backbone just for remotely being able to play my own games in a different room of my house. Ive tried using a ps5 controller for remote play on my iPad without subscription and it works, but the lag is awful and its my understanding this is better using a backbone as the latency is very low.
Thank you so much
Ty ,answer for all my questions… the best!!
Can I still play games with it like spider man or other games while being offline or airplane mode?
Does backbone work without subscription
But it said in the advert a console is not required so why do u need a PlayStation to play ps games??
Bro horrible video start with you need a ps5 or ps4 to play on subscription just wasted 20 dollars Xbox does it
That’s a big fckn deal when every other app allows no console
It's selling at walmart now.
So let me get this straight. You can play from pretty much anywhere in the world as long as your actual PS5 is connected to an internet connection and is either left on or in rest mode as long as you turn on Mobile data. However to play PS5 games you don’t need a subscription but to play other games you need a subscription? My last question is do we need to use the backbone app to play PS5 games remotely or do we need to be on the PS Play app
When your console is on or in rest mode and your out the house trying to use your backbone controller. Does your console need to be connected to WiFi to be able to use the backbone controller to play PlayStation games?
Is there another way to stream without subscription because am not paying for this!
My question is can I mirror on tv ? Play on tv instead of iPhone ?
Do you have to buy the backbone subscription?
Thanks answer all my questions
I’ve been looking for the answer for the 2nd question I have the black backbone and I have an Xbox one and PS5 and I want to play the PS games when I go out
tbh this seems like a better option than the playstation portal
How di you get the subscription
Is destiny 2 via cloud without the console?
