The Live Broadcasting feature will also be improved. The users will be able to select any channel of their choice, be it as the official PlayStation broadcasts or from other PS4 users on their friend list. Other channels that the user follows will also be selectable. It will also be implementing more useful filtering search parameters for finding game broadcasts and archived broadcasts as well.

Additional voice commands for the PlayStation Camera will also be added, as noted in IGN.

A new "Add to Library" button will also be included in the new update for players to mark and download their chosen video game titles.

Files from the PlayStation 4 such as captured video, screenshots, and saves from video games will be also transferable to an external USB device in the upcoming update.

As for the Playstation 4 Content Area, it will be more organized and a search option to only find what exactly the user wants to look for will be featured in the update.
