I’ve run into WAY to many where their virtual controller has the wrong key mapping for the game, yet there’s no options in their settings (and none for the game being played) to change it to the correct setup. The real problems come when you try to play games with this. You can change this in the settings (the icon with the touchpad/mouse buttons there’s a couple different options in there) It keeps defaulting to a drag and click method, which isn’t terrible, but also isn’t really that intuitive with a touch interface. Furthermore, to match its new found scope, Steam In-Home Streaming has been renamed as 'Steam Remote Play'.When it does work. Of particular note to Steam Link app users, Steam In-Home Streaming is experimentally available outside the home, according to the release notes. In related news, Valve has updated the Steam Client Beta with a host of changes for PCs, Macs and Linux machines. The streaming app performs at its best when users are hooked-up to the same or via a very fast network connection. If you search the App Store for Steam Link on your iOS device it might not be picked up, depending on your region, so it might be best to click the link provided on your iOS device, to grab the app today.Īs a reminder, using the Steam Link app differs from 'cloud gaming' as it relies on your own Steam account being loaded with the games you wish to play, and the source PC being turned on and ready to game.
It seems that Valve has solved the Apple App Store blockage by removing the ability to buy PC games direct from the app, you will still have to do that via the computer client, or via a web browser where you are logged in to your Steam account. Thus a large segment of the potential audience for streaming Steam PC games to devices was lopped off.įast forward to today and the Steam Link app is now available on the Apple App Store. Unfortunately for Valve and Apple iOS users, Apple dug in its heels and refused to distribute the Steam Link app via its App Store walled garden. If you can remember back to this time last year, The Steam Link app had just been launched by Valve and roughly replicated the Steam Link hardware functionality on any connected PC, Mac or Android device - 5GHz Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet network required.
