    Anyone else having a problem syncing their PS4 and phone? I go to "Add Device" under the Playstation App on the PS4 and the code comes up on screen to enter on my phone.

    But on my phone its say "PS4 not found"

    I am logged into PSN on my phone.

    I tried shutting off my phone, resetting it, but nothing. I have an iPhone 5.

    I had the same problem when I tried it. I imagine it will get ironed out eventually.

    @aetheldod I was thinking the same thing. I turned on bluetooth on my phone just for the heck of it, but still didn't work.

    I had this trouble once. Next time it worked for me. After I got it synched, it works fine, although it's a bit of a weird app.

    I've connected my tablet, phone and vita no issues.

    Try turning off your mobile data to make sure the phone is using wifi when you try to connect.

    I fixed mine by disabling wireless isolation in the router. It may have been network isolation. Either when that was disabled it worked likea champ.
