Ratings and Reviews
amazing but just needs 2 things
Steam link is just absolutely great and i love it so much!! im able to play The Forest and Friday The 13th and its just so amazing but theres just one problem. i am unable to shift/Run when i play with my buttons on screen so it would be great if there was a button or maybe having to double tap and hold the joystick and is it possible for us to be able to play with our laptop offline and maybe being really really really far apart from our laptop because something like that would be really helpful when trying to play from another location on your phone instead of having to play while your at home 🏡 and okay now this will be the last thing i promise haha but um is there any possible way that the buttons on the controller can be customized in their size because if i have a small phone i wanna make sure i can see a lot of the screen and sometimes some buttons just cover most of the screen so if you guys could cover these things it would be amazing. Thank you so much for your time and you guys are doing amazing so keep at it
Lacks Native Support/ Touch Screen
For me the only controllers I own are some Xbox controllers. The problem is the lack of support for touch screen. I used to play a lot of touch screen games when I was younger. Now that I’m older; I’m fine playing them casually in another room. However, when trying to play games I found myself having no easy native controls. With me having to mingle with each game. This app works perfectly. If you have good internet and a good computer. The result is very visually appeasing with close to no lag. To me steam should have built some more features. Like remote using of the PC. Like being able to use mouse and keyboard mode on the computer with steam minimized. You are able to do this as I clicked out of the game and had remote access of the PC. Additionally PC remote controls like turn on from sleep or turn off. I’m aware that other programs have these capabilities; Integration of these services with steam link would be a very impressive way to get people using the app. Overall very satisfied. Would recommend to a friend.

What’s the point of playing on something inferior
There isn’t a point so why should we play on our iPads and iPhones .... well the best reason would be to play anywhere you want .... that’s cool I own a laptop if I want to play on the toilet I can in 2 min set up .... if I want to play outside well there’s an outlet and the connection to the pc will be better than the phone .... there is no reason to use an app that forces you to connect to a pc and to connect to the same WiFi as that pc WiFi ... at the point at which it becomes more work to set up load hit play then relax is the point his app becomes useless ... any time you want to game you need your pc that same pc that rubs your games that same pc which most likely already has the game installed .... say you don’t have it installed say your pc can’t handle it that’s 2 reasons to use this .... where this app gives 500 reasons not to use it by simply forcing you to use the pc you have on to connect to the WiFi your pc is already using to force you to be near or in the same house as the better system your pc and to force you to game on handheld when the real thing is near feet from you ....
