Ratings and reviews

It works and games run smoothly when you're connected on the same Internet connection and when you're near. Some imptovements that I've thought of are better customization for controls, and better connection. I tested the app by turning on mobile data on my phone and normal internet connection on PC and it was very laggy, like you had 1000 ping. Other than that, it's great! Thank you Steam, very cool

really cool app that I would love to use more often. The 2 biggest issues I have with it currently are: 1. Quality of the stream isn't always where it needs to be for an enjoyable game session. this is despite me using the official Steam Deck to stream from, having very fast Internet, and a very new computer to stream the content on (I bought the Android device last year). 2. Why is this a separate app rather than a feature in the main Steam app?

This one really sucks. I wanted to use it only to be able to use my phone to navigate on the Steam Deck without having to take a controller or a mouse, and for that it's really useless!
