Where to find your downloads on ps4

With the PS4, patches and updates are downloaded and installed automatically — as they become available — rather than having to be installed when you choose to play the game. What you might not know with the PS4 though is how to find your download list to view and manage what your PS4 is currently downloading. The downloads list is hidden away under the notifications menu.

From here you can manually install an update if for some reason the PS4 did not automatically do it and pause or cancel downloads. You must be logged in to post a comment. The game will install automatically. Depending on the game, you may have the option to copy and play a portion of the game right away.

One of the most useful features on the PlayStation 4 is the ability to have it download updates in the background while it is in rest mode.

I mean, have you ever tried to turn your console on and update your games while every other PlayStation 4 owner is doing the same thing? Thankfully, the PlayStation 4 makes it easy to see what has been downloaded on your console, so you know if your games, themes, or even the console itself have updated overnight.

You can also clear the list so it is easier to read in the future. What do you think? Let us know down below in the comments or carry the discussion over to our Twitter or Facebook. Just a heads up, if you buy something through our links, we may get a small share of the sale.
