The lack of a PS Portal web browser continues to vex players nearly eight months after the remote player launched. The issue keeps cropping up from time to time as players use workarounds to access a hidden browser tucked away in the console’s settings, but its use is limited and cumbersome.

How to access PS Portal’s hidden web browser

As explained by folks over at XtremePS3, PS Portal’s “hidden” browser can be accessed by going to the handheld’s settings, selecting “legal notices,” and then “other documents,” which open up in a browser. However, Sony has severely limited its use. Frankly, it’s less frustrating to not use it at all.

The glaring omission is particularly annoying when players want to use their PS Portal in a hotel, and accessing the hotel WiFi requires a login via a web browser. People have previously used workarounds like using their phones to connect to their hotel’s WiFi, and then using the phone as a hotspot, but nothing beats having a simple web browser on the device.

Considering that the allure of PS Portal is to connect to your PS5 and play games while away from the console, it’s baffling that Sony has yet to add the feature.
