Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Great, although some suggestions

    By Cabalex4 (Pcmac user)

    This is an awesome app for when you don’t feel like getting out of bed to play some PC games, but it could be better. For instance, the controls are very restricted. It’s either NO controls (you move your finger around to move the cursor), SIMPLE controls (just 6 buttons, in the RB LB configuration, seen on the top of controllers, plus two other buttons), and FULL controls (freaking PS D pad, shoulder buttons and bumpers, TWO thumb sticks, an XYAB button configuration, and start/select near the bottom edges). In my opinion, it’s either not enough or WAY TOO MUCH, as in a lot of cases only need two thumb sticks, XYAB, and start/select (ok, maybe the bumpers and shoulder buttons). The rest is just covered up screen space. Please add an option to set custom button layouts and sizes, and to choose what buttons you need. It would greatly increase the usefulness of this app. Other than that, that’s pretty much the only complaint I have. It’s responsive, but I probably wouldn’t use it for FPSes, and tweakable bitrates from 0.5 mbps to 50 mbps (default 10 on 720p, 20 on 1080p), and framerates either 30 Hz or 60 Hz. I would recommend 20 Mbps at 1080p 60Hz, but you could go for a lower setting. Overall pretty OK app, let down by the controls. By the way, it works pretty well on my laptop: Inspiron 15 i5577 i5 7th gen 3500hq GTX 1050 8 GB ram 2.4 GHz 20 MBPS down / 5 MBPS up Although you probably want 5 GHz.
  • It needs an explicit “how to fix” regarding screen flashing.

    By Deathfun (Pcmac user)

    This app is all I could ask for out of a game streaming app, it’s beautiful and hands down the best thing out there. My biggest issue is the flickering in the games that is easily fixed by disabling “big picture mode” in steam. I wish I didn’t have to suffer from that flashing over and over as it gave me an intense headache. It should be clearly stated that you need to do this in the support page.
  • Finally!

    By alexaiezza (Pcmac user)

    The bugs and crappy design decisions of this app have finally been phased out. This team did a great job at listening to its users and have finally delivered an excellent, flexible app that is worthy of some serious praise. They’ve gripped a technology that is still very new and done an incredible job delivering it users in an intuitive way that I frankly cannot get enough of! I hope and pray that continue keeping an ear out for their users as they continue rolling out features. I’ll say it right now, I would easily have paid for this app and should it ever become a paid app, I am finally able to say I would gladly support this team. Thank you guys! Seriously, there are not enough people like you in the tech industry.
  • Great app with flaws

    By MatthewGand (Pcmac user)

    I appreciate the hard work for this open source free app, but bugs appear here and there. I believe the worst feature of this app is the navigation, mouse feature is terrible and right clicking turns into scrolling? Very confusing. The keyboard is missing a ton of features (tab, function keys, etc.), and it gets very tedious when getting in the way of windows. (PS Windows 10 has Tablet mode embrace the feature?)
