Ratings and reviews

This app is great but in some ways it could be improved, like why cant you sign in to your Steam account to access a remote device, really it only allows connecting to a device on your network or with a code. You also can only have one device paired to the app at a time. Beside all of that, once the device is paired and you have a decent internet connection it works fine.

this is the greatest thing I've ever used. I use my pixel 7 and a $50 controller that holds my phone. that's exactly like an Xbox controller and it works. it works perfectly. the only thing that might lag is if you're playing something like call of duty. if you're playing something like Indiana Jones and the great circle or RoboCop this is perfect. a lot also depends on your network setup. if you don't have a wired connection, you better have really good Wi-Fi mesh networking. ❤️

3-stars for the fact that this exists. However, It requires me to connect all plug-ins/bluetooth devices to my actual PC in-order to use. I have a bluetooth mouse, keyboard, multiple controllers that successfully connect, and all of them work on all my devices. I can see the mouse pointer on the screen. Using my mouse (or finger for touch controls) do not respond to clicking once the games start, the keyboard, and controller only works when the game is not yet booted. Lots of fun potential tho.
