All About Pixel Media Server

Pixel Media Server offers basic functionality. However, it does allow you to browse the entire folder structure of your smartphone and locate all your media. If you want an app with a little more refinement, you can try out Bubble UPnP and iMedia Share.

Bubble UPnP is quite powerful, but you need to buy a full license to use it if you must stream for more than 30 minutes. The license costs $4.50 with  an in-app purchase.

iMedia Share is simple and it condenses all your streamable media into Photos, Videos, and Music folders when viewed on your PS4. However, it pulls in system images and audio sounds, which you probably don’t need to see.
