### 5/5 — BEST PC CONTROLLER

*2026-05-05*

this possibly has all the bestest features from microphone redirect to using iPhone gyro as a aiming input in games with lowest latency and smooth gameplay with haptics and especially the AV1 codec …. 
Thank You For Making VOIDLINK Extreme.

### 5/5 — Almost perfect

*2026-05-03*

The only thing I wish this app had was the ability to zoom in when using the touch pad mouse. I could replace chrome remote desktop if this was possible. Touch mode with 2 finger pan and zoom would also be nice!

### 5/5 — Rumble through Mifi?

*2026-04-28*

This is the best moonlight client for iOS full stop. I hope someday they’re able to implement rumble through mifi controllers. I have a Gamesir G8+ Mifi, but it only supports rumble if it’s used through the Mifi protocol… which is rarely done.

**Developer response:** The g8+ mfi uses private protocol to rumble, which is unavailable to generic app, thats the problem

### 5/5 — Great app great dev

*2026-04-20*

Super friendly dev who always helps out users, whether it be in reviews or their discord. Such a good app

### 5/5 — Leider auch nur ein Reinfall

*2026-04-15*

Auch nicht besser als andere Apps, funktioniert leider nicht.

Update:

Lieber Entwickler, kein „nonsense“, sondern ständige Abbrüche:

„Connection Error
Failed to initialize video capture/encoding. Is a display connected and turned on?“

**Developer response:** Ok, this is a typical error message of Sunshine (the service app running on your PC failed to assign a display for streaming). 1. It's not a client app(VoidLink/Moonlight) issue.     2. If you have a physical monitor connected, to quickly verify your connection, select a lower resolution like 1920x1080 from the left side settings menu.  Then you can try add custom resolution of your iPhone/iPad to the GPU control panel.       3. If your PC is running completely headless without any physical monitor, you'll need a dummy plug (fake displayer), or try installing Sunshine forks with built-in virtual display, one of the most popular ones is Apollo:

### 5/5 — Great and customisable

*2026-04-09*

I love all the options, theres more than I hoped for. Buttons for chorded keypresses and G15 / Razer like macros. It is much more fluid and modern than Moonlight

**Developer response:** time to update to the latest version with GUI based on-screen widget picker, with all the the functions of legacy command system ported

### 5/5 — Worthy upgrade

*2026-03-29*

Fixed my issues with moonlight RTSP handshake not working.
Also much nicer app.

### 5/5 — Best steaming client for Apple devices

*2026-03-28, version 3.3.4*

I’ve tried moonlight and it always stuttered. This thing is buttery smooth. Use it on my iPhone 15 Pro, iPad M4 Pro, and MacBook M3 Pro. It works on all of em. Worth the $1 folks!

### 5/5 — BUY IT

*2026-03-27*

Very good app. Few things that need fixes/tweaks, changing the sensitivity does not work for iPad touchpad. Apple pencil is sometimes buggy. Also I would change it somehow to make it easier to swipe left to menu because it feels laggy sometimes. Please try to fix this for seamless operation, sending love. ❤️ P.S you should charge more money for this app like 4.99.

**Developer response:** currently the sensitivity settings are all about touch control and gyro. So if you're referring to a physical touchpad, yes, doesn't work for it.

There's a "slide threshold" setting in the gesture section of the menu, where you can lower the threshold and expand the menu with a quick swipe. The default 20% screen width threshold was actually made for touch screen gaming.

if you use Apple Pencil for drawing, please read this to see if the drawing toolkit in-app-purchase helps you in any means:

### 5/5 — best pc streaming app on ios

*2026-03-25, version 3.3.4*

for developer: i use ios15 and if there is a way to hide the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen, and the three multitasking dots at the top. it would be much appreciated. i know some of the other streaming apps don't have these by having them in some fullscreen mode.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-03-25*

I would also really like to see a screen stretching feature that would allow a 1920×1080 output to be stretched to a 19.5:9 display. Maybe this feature already exists, but unfortunately I couldn’t find it.

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2026-03-24*

Hint: If you want to play games with mouse, then make sure the mouse is captured: Settings -> Peripherals -> Local Mouse Pointer -> captured

**Developer response:** peripheral section of the settings menu -> local mouse pointer -> visible

### 5/5 — Best streaming app

*2026-03-24*

If you’re on apple devices, look no further, this one easily beats everything I’ve tried so far. It has all the settings I’ve wished for.

### 5/5 — Amazing saved me from buying a gaming laptop.

*2026-03-21, version 3.3.2*

This thing is everything I wanted from moonlight and more.  Please add Apple TV support

### 5/5 — super awesome pls make an apple tv version!!!

*2026-03-18, version 3.3.2*

if it’s just another build of this app i’d love u forever (developer)

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-06-23, version 3.4.4*

I was really looking forward to using this since the set up with moonlight is very limited. However, I was unable to get a single game working smoothly on here. I even changed all the settings to optimize but the lag was so horrible it made it unbearable. Looks like I’m going back to moonlight.

### 1/5 — Not legitimate

*2026-06-20*

I bought this thinking it was a complete application only to find out that I was expected to pay extra if I wanted all of the features.

**Developer response:** The rating appears to be based on the existence of an optional one-time purchase for digital art, rather than the functionality or quality of the app. Nevertheless, thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

### 1/5 — Pay walls??

*2026-06-12*

Got this app a bit ago to play games remotely with tailscale and it works great! However I’m trying to get into digital art and thought this could be a great way to use desktop drawing programs on my iPad. Come to find out that if I want to do this I have to spend $6 on a drawing toolkit to make the Apple Pencil actually usable? If the base app was free I wouldn’t really care about charging for this, but the fact that this is a premium app that already costs money is absurd. There is no reason that support like this should be locked behind a pay wall. Im extremely disappointed and this has left quite a sour taste in my mouth. The rest of the app is great but this is just greedy, do better.

**Developer response:** Sorry, I'm afraid you got me terribly wrong on pay walling. Without purchasing drawing toolkit, Apple pencil is usable and working at the same level and capability as moonlight iOS (even better in terms of resolving flickering stylus cursor while hovering). Everything included by drawing toolkit is pro-level enhancement that worth the price. 
(I will be able to provide a Testflight without drawing toolkit enabled to you, if you dont remember. Update the app to 3.4.4 you can confront me face to face by tapping the question mark on top right and join the discord).
If you think I'm greedy by spending months to develop this addon component and setting a reasonable price at 6$, refund drawing toolkit and go for something like easycanvas(13$) or astropad(12$ per month), with poor performance(even by wired connection) and poor pencil pressure curve.
Further more, as a sun-moon community & iOS app developer I respect the license, I'm also allowed to earn some extra money in a legitimate way. I refuse to be morally or emotionally manipulated.

### 1/5 — Inaccessible - No network connection

*2026-03-26*

In my iPad, Void link doesn’t detect anything on my pc even despite sharing the same wifi and ip address. I don’t see anyone making tutorials about this.

**Developer response:** Don't blame me it's the problem of your network. 
Try moonlight-iOS you'll get the same result, unless you totally forgot to grant network access to VoidLink. 
PC under Wi-Fi connection got lot of connection issues. wired ether connection is strongly suggested.
Also try add host manually by entering IP

### 1/5 — Can not full screen

*2026-03-15*

Cannot full screen on iPad Pro

**Developer response:** Blame me for a Sunshine problem with your host? Learn more about the whole self-hosted PC game streaming system and Sunshine forks with virtual display e.g. Apollo.
I'm just a streaming client app developer, not your babysitter.

### 1/5 — No gesture to close app

*2026-01-12*

I use Apollo on HTPC for steaming movies, no games. I don’t use a controller, only touch on iPad  to navigate through movie library. 

Moonlight app has an easy gesture to swipe left at bottom that closes the app.  This app has no gesture at all to close app.  I have to tap middle bottom of screen a couple of times to reveal the iPadOS floating swipe button, then I usually have to swipe up 2-3 times to force quit the app, then re-open app and manually close the client instance I had previously opened. Way too convoluted. 

While this app works better than Moonlight overall, and appears to be actively supported, unfortunately I will have to continue to use Moonlight due to this limitation. 

Hopefully the developers will read this and consider adding a swipe gesture to easily close.

**Developer response:** it's UNFAIR !!  You didn't read the first launch tip at all, which pops up and stays on screen for 15 seconds:

1. From left edge, slide 20% screen width to open settings menu
2. From right edge, slide 20% screen width to open toolbox menu
...
( Don't believe that ? You'll get it by uninstall and install the app again, then to connect to the host)

As soon as you expand the setting menu in session you'll see a broken clip icon which means disconnection. 
Oh, the threshold of sliding distance can be adjusted.

### 1/5 — Still no Apple TV App

*2026-01-04*

Where is the AppleTV App like moonlight…?

**Developer response:** Wow you're so entitled huh? 
Is it going to be a VoidLink for tvOS ? Yes or no, it's none of your business.
For any one reading this review: VoidLink has 4.6+ overall rating.

### 1/5 — 我

*2025-12-02, version 3.2.3*

会上线tappletv吗

### 3/5 — I wish i didn't update

*2026-05-04*

The last update caused me some trouble , now my native touch stopped working ( because of the zoom thing ) , suddenly i got doubled NAT with it + sunshine ( 2 wifi routers connected throught LAN)  and i can't connect unless i'm on the same router or through tailscale ( extra latency)  , i can't get the full screen on my ipad , just the tv 
And now i'm stuck with this update :)
Also the mouse pointer is now shown on , i cant move my mouse on touchpad to another monitor unless it's shown on the same ipad screen
Now if i bring down the notification center it freezes , having to disconnect and reconnect again so it runs smoothly again

**Developer response:** Change local mouse pointer to "captured" in peripheral section of the settings menu.
And you're likely using metal rendering with the magnifier widget which will cause touch problem you mentioned. Switch to standard rendering.
Other issues like latency are not caused by VoidLink update. Any troubles you can reach to our community by tapping question mark on the top right corner

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-08-23*

Developer has done a great job with the updates. I like being able to maneuver around windows just using the controller. I mean, touch controls are great too. Game streaming has been seamless for me

### 5/5 — Perfekt

*2026-08-20*

Echter Externer Display support. Nutze es mit meiner virture xr Brille. Einfach genial

### 5/5 — Großartige Moonlight App!

*2026-08-16*

Am iPhone (17 Pro) funktioniert auch Fullscreen (kein Mirror) am externen (4K) Monitor. Danke schön an die Entwickler!

### 5/5 — The Dev cares

*2026-08-10*

The Developer is very responsive to wants and needs of his users. Keeps regular updates of his apps from things wanted by the community

### 5/5 — Лучшее приложение для стрима

*2026-07-06*

Все работает безупречно на макбуке, айпаде и айфоне. Берите смело

### 5/5 — Please support the dev this is AMAZING!

*2026-06-30*

I recently got into streaming things over my iPhone after buildign a high end PC and moonlight hasn’t been updated and seeing you updating the app so often alone made me wanna buy it :)
I’m here to support however I can!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much!

### 5/5 — Great app great dev

*2026-06-08, version 3.4.3*

Super friendly dev who always helps out users, whether it be in reviews or their discord. Such a good app

### 5/5 — Moonlight+

*2026-05-27*

If you ever used Moonlight and needed an app that was more customizable and more able than its predecessor, then this is the app that you will want to get. It is genuinely well-developed and easily understood if you have any experience with apps like this or apps that are similar. Great way to do remote desktop from anywhere. I've been saying for years that people need to start doing this instead of buying Duet or something like that. Super easy to set up. If you have any experience with computers, you can set it up with Tailscale, also another great app not sponsored by either of these. Tailscale, where you can do it from anywhere, or you can just stick with the at-home use. Genuinely well done guys, this Is a great app.

### 5/5 — Ótimo aplicativo

*2026-05-22*

Atende a expectativa sendo melhor que o moonlight pois passa por atualizações frequentes.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-05-13*

It works great ! So much better than Steam Link and it is flawless, I can finally adapt the remote session with my iPhone screen ratio and everything comes back to normal on my computer when the session is over.

I just have a question for the developper: Is it possible to specifically force the rumble on the iPhone instead of the controller ? 

Currently there’s an « auto » option to automatically redirect if the controller does not support rumble but it does not work as my controller is marked as having « rumble support » in the settings despite not having any motors at all (Leadjoy M1C+).

Thank you very much !

**Developer response:** there's a "built-in" option right next to "auto" in "controller section -> haptic engine".  I think this will work, if don't, tap top right corner of the app host view, find our discord community and I'll investigate
