Look this is great software hampered by it's lack of following apple UI standards

Just basic things like taking focus without being "fullscreen" are against apple guidelines, the app doesn't play nice with MacOS in really any way. I get that this isn't the super high priority product since mac gaming is niche and game streaming on a mac is even more niche, but I truly believe that y'all in Bellvue can make a top tier Apple API based app. If Steam and Steam Link felt like real top tier MacOS apps, and not also rans, you would enable so many more people access to your storefront. But like the steam client still uses window chrome elements from before retina macbooks launched 10 years ago, so IDK if you will ever take this huge and growing platform seriously

Great when it works, but there are stability issues

I use this on my LAN (ethernet connection) with a headless gaming PC. When it works it is awesome and has no discernible lag and I’m playing at 4K. However, it has also crashed my PC many times. Usually I have to restart both machines and then it will work very well. If either machine has been on for a while, sleep, play, sleep, play etc. then there is a decent chance it will be too laggy to play or will crash my PC. I hope you continue to improve this app as it is a great idea and a real game changer for not needing multiple displays or having to connect displays when switching computers.

When using a controller the software works great. It does have some strange issues going from full screen to creating a second desktop but that's here nor there. The thing does it's job.If you're a KB mouse user it's where the issue begins. When you hold a letter key, let's say E, you will able to call diacritic marks among other things. Well Steam Link pick up on this and it is very annoying holding the WASD and seeing that in the screen. Only reason I don't score it 5.

I use this on my ipad, my macbook, and on my apple tv and it all works perfectly. A lot of negative reviews either don’t seem to understand what this app if for(connecting to a gaming pc from another device on the same network). Or don’t seem to understand that latency over wifi is going to be based on a number of factors. Make sure all your devices and modem can handle at least Wifi 6. Stay within a reasonable range of your router or plugged in via ethernet. Make sure the gaming pc is hardwired into the router and you’re golden.

* Added an audio buffer size setting to tune audio latency
