Steam Link

Terrible

I've always loved it but after yesterday's update the cursor is no longer visible on any streaming devices, when it's fine on the host.

works pretty well. occasional lag because of my slow wifi but if it is fast you should be good. great for those who have laptops and a good pc.

Needed a third controller when play a local co-op game recently. Was surprised I could use the app as a touch controller that streams the game to my phone as well as the TV. The controller itself was a bit iffy since a phone screen and an actual gamepad don’t really compare but the quality of the video and the latency were more than acceptable for the casual nature of what we were playing anyway. All in all, great app in a pinch. Still had good fun.

The second I connected to my computer it broke all audio functions so now my computer has no audio at all and I have no way to fix it.

No use for me. Give it 1 star I’m not sure if it’s supposed to be used as a second control or not but that’s what I was hoping and it didn’t work. Just linked to the same one. Anyway whether it was for that and just didn’t work or if it was to play games on the go and control from your phone I have to give it 1 star because it crashed my console. Had to reboot manually.

Works perfectly. Excellent response. I've been playing Elite Dangerous again on the beautiful 27" screen of my Mac again. Can't fault it and don't understand the complaints really.

Steam Link is an amazing way to play steam games on the go if it actually works. Whenever I start streaming it just crashes and sends me back to the menu and Steam Link is not very reliable when actually on the go which is generally the whole point of the app. Some Features do stand out such as continuing off your game with a dedicated icon for the game that you were last playing.

A great system.But I wish the computer didn’t have to be on

Just tried playing ‘Run Sackboy: A Big Adventure’ on my iPad through Steamlink and I must say it has improved a lot since the last time I tried it. I used an Xbox controller to play the game and the controls were very immediate and responsive. It was a good experience. There were a few little interruptions due to my WiFi, but generally it was an impressive experience! Hopefully it will be the same with other games.
