### 3/5 — Autoclose

*2026-08-19, version 3.35.0*

The shadow cloud pc instantly close after when i try to open it from my ipad air 2 with the lasted ipados support version but in appstore this app are compatible with beginning the ipados 15… version but my ipad have the 15.8.8

### 2/5 — Why did it flash back?

*2026-07-17, version 3.34.2*

On iOS15, this app cannot be used normally. Please ask the developer to fix this problem.

### 3/5 — it’s ok

*2026-07-01, version 3.31.2*

i would really like if they did a 1 day free try for people to experience how it works first but is just like a windows and it could run my sims 4 with ccs

### 3/5 — Sign in

*2026-06-17, version 3.31.2*

I like it but I’m confused because when signing in, is it asking for the shadowpc account or the windows account

### 2/5 — ….Naja

*2026-05-19, version 3.31.2*

Wenns läuft, dann läufts. Wenns Probleme gibt, dann reißen die Geduldsfäden. ich nutze die app auf dem Ipad pro m4 mit einem externen Monitor über ein Dock. Wenns funktioniert, dann ist das der Wahnsinn. es fühlt sich an als hätte man den PC unter dem Schreibtisch stehen. AAAABER. Auflösungen werden nicht richtig erkannt, Dual screen kann man vergessen. Der Mauszeiger wird jedes mal verloren und rastet nicht mehr in der VM (ShadowPC)  ein. Nach einem größeren Windows-Update, musste ich letztens nach stundenlangem basteln, die VM über die Website komplett zurücksetzen und neu einrichten lassen, was auch ewig gedauert hat. Es macht wirklich spaß wenn alles läuft, aber das ist alles so fragil und wenn man mal den monitor wechselt, oder mal ein Windows-Update laufen lässt, ist man schnell für einige stunden Beschäftigt und man hat danach eigentlich schon keine Lust mehr. Bitte schaut euch mal die App an und testet mal die Anwendungsfälle (z.B Ipad mit dock an 4k monitor)

### 3/5 — The best ever

*2026-05-10, version 3.31.2*

Good

### 3/5 — Die Idee ist gut, aber…

*2026-04-28, version 3.31.2*

Zum einen ist der monatliche Preis echt hart. Zwar aufgrund der gegebenen Leistung und Möglichkeiten nachvollziehbar, aber dennoch. Leider funktioniert die App nicht ganz so gut, wie ich gehofft hatte. Auf iPad OS reagiert die ESC taste leider vor der Shadow app, sodass die Zeigersteuerung immer aus der App springt. Da die ESC taste für viele Spiele wichtig ist, kommt schnell Frust auf. Auch die FN Tasten, die man für viele Spiele braucht, benötigen eine extra Tastatur, da man über iPadOS diese Tasten gar nicht erst hat. Die Eingabelatenz ist sehr gering, fast nicht spürbar, dies ist ein Plus. Aber die Bildqualität bei Bewegung? Absolut fürchterlich. Ich habe eine 150k Leitung, und auf dem iPad kommen dauerhaft mindestens 100 Mbit/Sekunde an. 20 Mbit werden empfohlen um das Bild stabil zu halten. Ich habe 5x so viel, die tatsächlich auf dem iPad ankommen. Der Stream ruckelt trotzdem. Naja, Ich hatte gehofft, mit Shadow eine coole Alternative zu haben, wodurch ich einen Desktop PC oder Mac nicht mehr brauchen würde. leider ist diese Lösung hier nicht so gegeben. Ob diese Probleme jetzt bei Shadow, Apple oder sonst wo liegen, weiß ich nicht, aber es zerstört das Erlebnis trotzdem.

### 1/5 — WORST EXPERIENCE

*2026-04-19, version 3.31.2*

MOUSE CONTROL IS A NIGHTMARE

### 3/5 — You need to pay

*2026-04-18, version 3.31.2*

I was searching for an emulator to emulate a pc so I could play a game but before I could do it I got hit with a pay wall so you need to pay money to emulate a pc on mobile. Don’t assume that shadow pc is bad tho I just haven’t tried it it could be a super good app you just gotta try it for yourself but if your looking for for a simple emulator maybe a different place to look

### 3/5 — Please fix this

*2026-03-26, version 3.31.2*

It needs support for mouse and keyboard mouse doesnt even work

### 4/5 — Love it! 10/10

*2026-03-23, version 3.31.2*

Works perfect the only thing i don’t like is the price.

### 3/5 — Shadow PC Overall Rating

*2026-03-19, version 3.31.2*

So i’m paying their monthly subscription fee for there best option (I think it’s called power). I’m using a M5 MacBook Pro to play ARK on my external display. I’m pretty disappointed with the amount of money i’m paying and the results i’m getting. I have an expensive and power monitor that is capable of running 8k 60fps. However, I’m running 3024 x 1440 resolution and set fps to 100 or 60. I only get like 23 fps in game and the graphics are absolutely terrible. I’ve tried everything from lowering resolution to lowering in game graphics to the lowest settings and it still does not perform well. I’m also getting 2Gbps with a wired connection so my internet is definitely not the issue. I’m unsure what is the issue, but i’m at a loss. Would love some assistance with this if I can get any, but like I said i’m just disappointed in the results. If I can’t figure it out or don’t get any assistance i’ll probably be moving on to trying something different.

### 1/5 — Service pourri !!!!

*2026-03-19, version 3.31.2*

### 1/5 — Don’t get waste of money ):

*2026-08-05, version 3.34.2*

Waste of money ):

### 1/5 — That’s too expensive!

*2026-07-31, version 3.34.2*

I don’t understand,though it is a real PC,why did these profiteers cost it so much? I think it isn’t as good as UTM HV,and UTM is free!

Compatibility issues

### 1/5 — Virus

*2026-07-09, version 3.34.2*

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-06-16, version 3.31.2*

I watched a video from this company and they said it was completely free and all you had to do was sign up and you could go onto the PC, when I did sign up, it required me to pay 30$ dollars every month, I was so mad because this company just falsely advertised their app. Don’t use this if you are not willing to spend 30$ a month.

### 1/5 — Shadow

*2026-06-12, version 3.31.2*

### 5/5 — Mad

*2026-07-14, version 3.34.2*

Dis shi is so stupid I already pay 30 month for the app but now I gotta wait in queue to play my games fix it or ur gonna lose a lot of people and money overall I give u five stars

### 5/5 — Gaming

*2026-05-25, version 3.31.2*

Best plan is power for gaming and you access steam without buying a pc

### 5/5 — Neo — Perfect for 1080p Gaming. Blame Windows.

*2026-05-23, version 3.31.2*

Exemplary service. I have only had two disconnections so far, which resolved swiftly. I have been using Shadow PC for two months (the “Restart Stream” button is your friend).

The most recent (or one of the most recent) Windows updates affects performance significantly. I read somewhere that there is a way to downgrade your drivers after the initial setup, if you wish to do so.

[[[Be Patient When Setting Up. I had to restart once just so windows would display an update. Make sure you install all updates first, THEN start setting up]]]: 

1440p@60.

Prompt, polite Support Team.


REQUEST FOR SHADOW PC: can you tell me any word on when this will be fixed?

### 5/5 — It’s Great!

*2026-05-01, version 3.31.2*

I am highly impressed with this app. I have been playing the Sims with full access and all my packs and mods from my iPad and phone! It’s only been 4 days but so far I have been an iPad kid! I absolutely love it. The price is great and it’s totally worth it. I don’t have any complaints!

### 5/5 — Antonio’s iPhone

*2026-04-19, version 3.31.2*

### 5/5 — Gaming pc on my phone

*2026-04-03, version 3.31.2*

### 5/5 — Very good

*2026-02-07, version 3.31.2*

It’s incredible service for anyone who can’t afford a super powerful PC, but only thing I’d like to tell everyone is CONNECT WHATEVER DEVICE TO AN ETHERNET, without you should expect some lag spikes even crashes from time to time. Still a good service, very trustworthy from my experience.

### 5/5 — SO GOOOODDDDDD

*2026-01-20, version 3.30.2*

I LOVE IT SM EVEN THOUGH ITS MONTHLY BUT I STILL LOVE IT MWAHHHH
