User reviews

Good idea but unreliable

Can’t load some games without being on the computer which defeats the point

Very nice

This app makes it easy to play if your to tired to get on your computer so all you do is just open steam on your computer and just open the app honestly the only problem I have with this app is the fact that it sucks without a controller

Extremely glitchy and does not work

This app is glitchier than a Fallout New Vegas mod circa 2012. All that needs to be said is said in that sentence.

Doesn’t work

Steam sucks, and it has no competition so it’s allowed to suck, despite harvesting 30% of all video game sales like the parasites they are.

Buggy

Terrible and laggy. Worked well for about 30 minutes then tanked. I’m the only person on my Wifi network. Was playing a rogue like. Ruined hours of progress because it dropped completely. Valve needs to pull this app and fix it. Embarrassment to their name.
