Description
This app streams games, programs, or your full desktop from a PC on your local network or the Internet running NVIDIA GeForce Experience (NVIDIA-only) or Sunshine (all GPUs). Mouse, keyboard, and controller input is sent from your Android device to your PC.
Streaming performance may vary based on your client device and network setup. HDR requires an HDR10-capable device, a GPU that can encode HEVC Main 10, and HDR10-enabled game. Games that use DXGI/OS HDR also require an HDR display connected to your host PC.

I've been using Moonlight for a couple of years now across all kinds of devices, including the original Steam Link, Android boxes, and smart TVs. It’s honestly impressive how well it runs, even on older hardware. The fact that the old Steam Link still works so smoothly with it says a lot. Paired with Sunshine on my gaming PC, Moonlight makes it easy to play my games anywhere in the house. The stream quality is great, the controls are responsive, and the connection stays solid.

This works so much better than Steam streaming for me. Picture quality, responsiveness and stable link just perfect!
★★★★★Stéphane Mallette· Feb 25, 2025
The best, save time and just grab it, install sunshine and start game streaming. It beats Parsec, NVIDIA, any other ones.

I'm new to PC gaming, but I love that I can get a sesh in where I am if I have some downtime. This also works better as remote desktop software than almost all the actual remote desktop software I've tried

Please do not call this useful application game streaming because I use it to extend my android phone display for better productivity.

21:9 PC to 16:9 android no longer works. It used to work just fine but now that I've updated there's a giant black bar around the whole android screen. Nothing I've tried fixes it. I've been looking for hours at suggested fixes.

It gives me an error code every time I try to use this for my Steam Deck and connect it to my LG TV. I try to find my IP address, and it never works; plus, any time I do it, I just get another error code and nothing pulls up as it should. It is a massive pain and a huge time-waster that I regret, because I was really looking forward to playing games on my Steam Deck connected to my TV. But because of the lack of implementation, I have to give this 1 star after asking Google AI on how to do it all
