My Computerless Roll20 Rig- Full Functioning

Edited 1458902560
So I have been without a computer for close to a year. When the computer first went down I thought that was the end of my Roll20 days. However that is not the case. I now have a practically full functioning Roll20 rig going with no computer at my disposal as a DM a campaign. -Skying on my phone -Roll20 Chat & Dice Roller on a tablet (That I barley use. It is convenient though, when I do. The app is very smooth) As for the virtual table top... drum roll please............ My PS4 I have connected a USB Keyboard & Mouse to my PS4. The Keyboard works great. For some reason the mouse does not but the analog on the controller works almost exactly the same. Putting together Maps with the controller over a mouse is a little slower than it would normally be. Also when I go to type certain things the delete button on Keyboard doesn't work because it makes the browser go to the previous page and I also cannot rotate tokens. Which doesn't really matter because my players are very experience and I just give then access to move any token and they take care of it. I am curious if anyone else uses a PS4? If so would love to hear anything that you do to make the rig work smoother.

As a subscriber, have you tried simply using your tablet for the VTT? (Just visit the webpage like you normally would, rather than using the native app.) I don't really like using my tablet for it, but I'm used to a really big computer monitor. The disadvantages you're describing for the PS4 sound arduous.
I have tried to use the VTT on my tablet, however my tablet is a smaller model and I find it difficult to navigate. Especially when I could have it through my PS4 on a 55' TV
