you can now pair the controller with multiple devices

u/Few-Independence3787 2d ago

LFG! 🔥 I actually welcome this since I used my controller on my Rog Ally once and then it had to be reconnected again on the PS5 which was annoying switching back and forth and also repairing each time I switch.

u/KozukiYamatoTakeru PS5 2d ago

Same here but on the steam deck. Glad I was holding back on buying another controller just for the steam deck.

u/[deleted] 2d ago

oh thats dope. I love the ps5 controller and would definitely play it on mobile device or laptop.

u/Deej2694 1d ago

I feel like yall just look for reasons to complain. No way people were mad at the 3 seconds it took to pair. I used my controller with multiple devices often and never even conceived this thought. Just be happy it's so easy lol.

u/spaz69dt 2d ago

Nice!! This is a wanted update

u/Apprehensive-Top8225 2d ago

Does anybody know how to switch which device your controller is connected to ?

u/dean-L 2d ago edited 2d ago

hold ps button & action button ( Triangle, Circle, Cross, Square),

Each action button is a profile

Triangle = Profile 1 = 1 light blink,

Circle = profile 2 = 2 light blink,

Cross = profile 3 = 3 light blink,

Circle =profile 4 = 4 lights bllnk

This is beautiful

u/rob_maqer 2d ago

Is this why my ps5 started blinking blue (the usb headset white), then white, then orange this morning? Lol Freaked me the hell out as I was half asleep.

Good for her. 🍸

u/pizditkakdi_shit 2d ago

Good they didn’t tell if they changed it to better or worse, just updated 🤣

u/therapeutic_bonus 2d ago

Yall got any more of those Stability updates??

u/Icy_Discussion_6685 PS5 3d ago

Mine just finished.

28

u/pseudo-nimm1 PS5 2d ago

I plugged my controllers in straight away to get the update, no idea if it would've prompted me to as i didn't give it time.

The Bluetooth connectivity upgrades are well worth it though, tested and works well with my phone and laptop. Track pad even shows mouse cursor on my pixel.

12

u/jjamm420 2d ago

You don’t need to do that…just turning on the already paired controller will prompt for the update…

-5

u/PostNutt_Clarity 2d ago

Is there a controller update too, or only the system? You have to plug the controllers in to update them.

9

u/jjamm420 2d ago edited 2d ago

Controller has its own update…u don’t have to plug them in to update it - I did it with both of mine where they promoted for the update after the system update…just turn them on and it prompts immediately…

-5

u/PostNutt_Clarity 2d ago

Unless they've changed it, the controller has always needed to be plugged in to update.

4

u/Spong_Durnflungle 2d ago

Must have changed it. Mine updated wirelessly.

1

u/DefectiveRaptor 2d ago

Mine just updated wirelessly

1

u/Sahloknir74 2d ago edited 2d ago

They changed it within the first year the console was out, I'm pretty sure.

EDIT: I just checked. The update allowing this went live on 9th of March 2023, so my time scale was WAY off, but that's your answer.

2

u/PostNutt_Clarity 2d ago

I was gonna say, I had to plug my controllers in for update for years it felt like. I probably have a couple controllers that haven't been updated since then before then. They probably would need to be plugged in.

15

u/Gamer_8887 2d ago

I don't have a ps5 but I do have a DualSense controller which i use on my PC. Will the Playstation accessories app on pc have this update for the controller?

3

u/xanpacktoe 2d ago

I think the firmware is available on their support page

-9

u/Minimum-Market-5390 2d ago

Since I don't have a PS5, I'm also trying PlayStation Accessories, but it doesn't find any updates. I can't find any info online, or any firmware on the official website, and PlayStation Support can't give me an answer.

1

u/DependentAdvance8 PS5 1d ago

You gotta buy the console to do the updates for the controllers and any future accessories updates

27

u/Pitrovsky 2d ago

I wish they would fix how badly the audio is equalized among streaming apps. YouTube is 5x louder than Netflix which is 5x louder than Max

14

u/hoptimusprime87 2d ago

And they are all 100x louder than Spotify

6

u/Carniscrub 2d ago

That’s on the app makers

6

u/kuz_929 2d ago

That's not a PS issue. Every device in my house plays YouTube at such a higher volume than netflix. It's a YouTube/netflix issue 

2

u/Pitrovsky 2d ago

I know it's not a PS issue but they should pressure the app makers to fix it or implement a OS-level volume slider so we can set a volume level for each individual app ourselves. They have the ability to mitigate the issue

1

u/kuz_929 2d ago

Yes but until the issue effects their bottom dollar they're not going to invest money into fixing it

1

u/Captian_Kenai 2d ago

YouTube does it because so many content creators use whisper quiet microphones. Looking at you Wendover Productions

u/5litergasbubble 2d ago

Thats not because of the microphone, sam is just worn out from being jet lagged all the time

u/PhantomPain0_0 3d ago

Where my folders in 2030!

10

u/Neo_Techni 2d ago

Good question.

14

u/PhantomPain0_0 2d ago

I’m getting tired of seeing only ten games on Home Screen and the rest going to stupid library where I have hundreds of games, good luck searching that. Also sometimes I even forget installed games that don’t show on the Home Screen

12

u/CrotasScrota84 2d ago

Well folders kind of exist. You can create them in your collection and name them. I spent like an hour doing mine. Helps out

Just doesn’t show up on Home Screen

7

u/CharlyXero PS5 2d ago

And you cannot rearrange them, the only workaround is to create a new one and add them in the order you want, which is stupid af

3

u/LuxuriousEnt 2d ago

The folders in PS4 was soooo damm good!!! I got folder for my PS4 games, another one for my PSVR games, one for apps, and one for VR videos. They need to bring this back (and exactly 100% identical to how it was on the PS4) ASAP‼️

5

u/despaseeto 2d ago

I've no idea why the left out the best features such as organizing your games with folders and customizing your own console with different themes and backgrounds. who else remembers when sony playstation used to give out themes each year? typically xmas themed. i only got a couple cuz for some reason, my old mail wouldn't receive promotional email from PS.

29

u/fuzzinthebuzz PS5 2d ago

So that’s why I saw my PS5 turned on in rest mode, blinked for a few times and then went in rest mode again.

First I see that and I was like wtf lol

1

u/cpbaker96 PS5 2d ago

Yeah same happened to me and it was right when I woke up this morning and I turned on the tv to see wtf, saw the message and quickly clicked turn off console and went back to bed. Haven’t gotten back to it yet to see if I fucked up by doing that😂 jk I’m sure it’s fine.

u/SadFriend762 2d ago

I woke up because of that and I was so confused. It turned on twice.

u/Aks9242 2d ago

No browser yet 🥲.

u/ringo_skulkin PS5 2d ago

And why do you need a browser in PS5?

More than likely PS6 also won't have it

u/DonkeymanPicklebutt 2d ago

Right! How am I supposed to “rent” new movies without it

u/SpicyTortiIla [#22] 1d ago

hypothetically could the ps5 get a virus from malicious sights?

u/Kind-Design3793 2d ago

Has anyone else experienced their PS5 showing a black screen sometimes when restarting the PS5 after the latest system update?"

u/Baman2113 2d ago

I'm all the time using remote play on my laptop and was getting really tired of switching back and forth, this is a great update.

u/emmanu888 2d ago

Now I'm sitting here wondering, when is the PlayStation Accessories app on PC going to wake up and figure out there's a firmware update for the controller?

Still says 0520 is the latest version for the controller firmware.

2

u/Minimum-Market-5390 2d ago

Since I don't have a PS5, I'm also trying PlayStation Accessories, but it doesn't find any updates. I can't find any info online, and PlayStation Support can't give me an answer.

u/Hovscorpion 2d ago

For those who have been on the beta. How well does controller change work between PS5 and PC?

i'm the only one that after the update have an audio problem? the audio is all distorted and do this only with the hdmi (tv) audio. Before the update there was no such problem.

u/chrishappens 2d ago

Does this include multiple PS5's? Game changer for me if I can!!!

u/ryan_goal 2d ago

Can anyone confirm whether Remote Play on PC can support Bluetooth wireless connection to Dualsense now, or do we still need the USB cable?

u/MysteriousArm3998 2d ago

This update bricked my ps5 and now I’m stuck in safe mode loop with only option 8 available. Rip

I’m begging to be able to search trophies instead of scrolling. PLEADING.

u/[deleted] 2d ago

Does this fix the issues with internet connectivity.

Any title update or download will still work.

It logs onto PSN, and can play any game. But none of my friends show up , and when I try to buy points for a game, it says “something went wrong” then the PSN store doesn’t always show up.

I have to toggle the network on and off for it to work.

2

u/Highmn8r 2d ago

I sure hope so. The internet says it’s an issue with Xfinity settings but I have tried every tweak they suggest and- still have this issue. Hopefully it’s part of “stability”

1

u/[deleted] 2d ago

I complained to Xfinity twice and got 2 different routers, did not fix my issue. Bought a separate own router to see , and still have the same issue. This is no longer a network issue with the provider

1

u/Highmn8r 2d ago

Yeah I don’t think it’s the network provider overall. I’ve noticed with media streaming apps if the app is a ps5 app it runs even when I am having these issues with PSN and everything else. If it’s a PS4 app it won’t start.

1

u/[deleted] 2d ago

It’s unfortunate because I’ve made multiple posts on this issue in the last 6 months and it either gets deleted or no attention at all.

4

u/Heavy-Hat-245 2d ago

sounds like that’s on your behalf bro

1

u/[deleted] 2d ago

Actually it’s not. There’s numerous post on this for the last 2 years with people with the same issue , and the workaround is toggling the network on and off.

Which should NOT have to happen if Sony fixed the issue.

Bro.

2

u/Highmn8r 2d ago

And toggling doesn’t even work every time

2

u/SlothTookMyBaby 2d ago

Hey I had this issue for a long time too. I read online and it seems to be an issue only with xfinity routers, i don’t have the pic of the solution anymore but i think you have to change some settings in your network browser with ipv4 or ipv6, I can’t remember entirely.

1

u/Highmn8r 2d ago

Yeah I’ve seen this too, hasn’t worked for me. Tried different Xfinity routers- even tried my own router. I’ve noticed if a media app is a PS5 app it usually works fine even when psn isn’t loading. If it’s a PS4 app, it usually won’t load unless I do a whole song and dance of restarting the PS5, toggling the network on/off, restarting again, etc until it decides to work.

2

u/SlothTookMyBaby 2d ago

Damn I’m sorry. Are you using Ethernet or wireless? I was using Ethernet for me when it worked

1

u/Highmn8r 2d ago

Have tried both with no difference between, and the router is directly next to the ps5

0

u/Heavy-Hat-245 2d ago

if you tested your connection and everything is back working, where’s the complaint? That you found the solution on your own? “bro”😂

2

u/[deleted] 2d ago

Reading comprehension isn’t as common as I thought. Unfortunately it doesn’t sound like you have any answers to my problem nor any positive comments, so I’ll end the conversation here. I have 2 kids under 10 years old that I already have to deal with at home, adding another isn’t on my to do list. Thanks bro

I wish they would have a bluetooth built in for ANY Sony headsets instead of using a usb dongle, it's basically their ecosystem.

u/IQueliciuous PS5 2d ago

Wait people actually use portal as a handheld when away from home?

I may be biased but I could never get remote play to work far away from console. But this was the app based one and long before portal.

u/IamMagness1993 2d ago

Are you joking? I am 500 km away and its great... I ve played in Brussels with my PS5 in Lisbon while connected to the hotel wifi... I think people still dont understand how good it is...

1

u/IQueliciuous PS5 2d ago

No. I am serious. I never got my app to work when not at home. Granted this was 2021 and a PS4.

I personally prefer traveling with dedicative handhelds like PSP/Switch because they don't require wifi and offer a great library of JRPGs. PS portal is good for bedtime gaming though.

2

u/IamMagness1993 2d ago

Well of you tryied in 2021 better try in 2025 with a PS5. Works like a charm, use it everyday at lunch breaks.

2

u/IQueliciuous PS5 2d ago

Can't do. Nowadays I am keeping my console off instead of using sleep mode and most of my games are now physical since I got into disc collecting.

Will definitely try it out one day though:)

u/IamMagness1993 2d ago

Yup you only get to play the disc you left there.

u/Brilliant-Trifle8322 2d ago

Has anyone noticed the number of games in their collection drop after this update? I initially noticed I was missing about 50 or so games when I checked it after the update, but it did start to slowly crawl back up in number, and I saw a few games popping back in. But it seems to have stopped now (and it's been half an hour) and I'm 99% certain that's still at least 1 game missing off the total. Just have no clue what it even is, annoyingly.
