(PSN)EyeGodZA Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Hi all, Per the subject line, I can't log into the app without it kicking on PS4... Anybody else experiencing the same thing? Running latest versions of both the game (obviously) and app, but my iOS isn't 100% up to date - could this be the issue? Ps. Was gonna post this in the PS4 Bugs forum, but for some reason, the "Ask Question" button isn't there, so please bear with me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 (XBOX)Tyreal2012 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Logging into the app while in game kills your online login, its the same on Xbox. Its intentional to stop you using the foundry etc whilst in game - annoying but I see their reasoning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 (PSN)EyeGodZA Posted November 12, 2018 Author Share Posted November 12, 2018 Ah... Thanks! Well, the real reason I wanted to use the app was for messaging in-game and eliminating shoddy controller comms... Is there another solution that works? I tried the PS4 Second Screen App, but no luck, and since you're on XB1 I don't know if you can advise, but trying my luck anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 (PSN)SteveOMatic Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Well, there's that notification that pops up every time you try to log into the app that says if you're currently logged into the game, future in-game progress will not be saved. That alone keeps me from trying to log into both, but I guess they have it kick you now as well. Never tried to log in at the same time so not sure what's supposed to happen, but losing progress is enough to keep me from doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 (PSN)EyeGodZA Posted November 13, 2018 Author Share Posted November 13, 2018 I’ve only ever done it while I’m not playing & my frame was in the landing craft, TBH, so it’s never caused any problems. I’m really just looking for a better messaging solution on the PS4; the in game predictive text UI learns pretty quick, though, so that helps, but still, messaging from a phone or tablet would be much more convenient.

0 (PSN)abbacephas Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 I've used the PS4 second screen app without issue. Have you synced your phone to your PS4? You'll need to for it to recognize you are using the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lame about the controller; Second Screen app integration would be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
