Steam Link has the best touch controls and customization of any game streaming app. The interface is intuitive, flexible, and much more enjoyable to use than Moonlight's touch controls. My biggest request is to improve latency and overall streaming responsiveness over Wi-Fi. Moonlight currently feels more responsive and has lower input delay, while Steam Link provides the better user experience. If Steam Link could match Moonlight's latency while keeping its superior touch controls

This is a cool streaming app I can play games that aren't too huge and I can do most normal steam stuff, setting it up is annoying though.

I expected this to have a terrible delay, but it wasn't so bad! I wouldn't play competitive games, but it's pretty great in chill games. Not only can you play games on your phone when your computer is in another room, you can also invite your friends who are far away to play, too! I do suggest having fast internet as it affects the delays and glitching. With a controller, it was just like using my computer just a bit slower. Amazing job getting all of this to work!

It's a bit scuffed bc it uses a mobile touchscreen, but for something free it works surprisingly well!!

The most worth it app made by steam. I had Football on my laptop but no controller but steam link was so, so helpful and really useful.I do recommend a high-end phone btw

Possibly the best way to NOT play anything on steam, the absolute worst connection on or off of Wi-Fi, no matter how pc friendly a game is you HAVE to have a controller, the touch controls are a bad joke at best. STAY AWAY OR BUY A LAPTOP.

This app is 100% useless. Doesn't work on phone, doesn't work on Nvidia Shield. Default control layouts often down have any mappings to pausing or menus. Many games on the Shield fail to load video at all. Menu overlays fail to clear away when exiting, blocking portions of the screen. Remote play ONLY works well on the Steam Deck. This app is a joke and Steam marketing this as the ability to play games anywhere should result in a lawsuit.

PC wired: slowest speed 59mbps. Phone Wi-Fi l: 120mbps. Still barelt able to connect let alone use for anything. Must run through Cloudflare with how terrible the connection is
