Install moonlight on iPad. Install Sunshine (from Lizardbyte) on PC. Connect to sunshine on pc using moonlight. Congrats, you can now stream your PC, steam, games, anything from your iPad. I play my steam games in my bed so I don’t have to buy them on Apple Store again since I own on steam. App is underrated and amazing.

Free software!

Works well on Cachyos connected to iPad gen 9. Requires tinkering on sunshine end, moonlight is plug n play.

Pour retour en arrière

Pour revenir en arrière sans quitter l’app, il faut faire un slide du bord de l’écran gauche vers la droite.

App qui fonctionne très bien sûr réseau local. Aussi à distance avec micro latence en plus avec VPN type Tailscale (gratuit)
