Steam Link is a popular Android app for gamers. It provides you with an opportunity to play PC games from your Steam account on a tablet or phone.
This application allows you to virtually run PC games on a mobile device. You may launch almost anything from your Steam library. Additionally, it is possible to add third party products as well.
Steam Link supports various Bluetooth keyboards, mice and gamepads. It is also possible to play simply by tapping buttons on the screen.
In order to work, the device with this application should be on a local area network with a personal computer. Additionally, this PC must have Steam installed and logged in to your account. When you launch the utility, it scans the LAN looking for active clients. After the connection, it switches the desktop to the Big Screen mode and starts streaming the picture to your phone or tablet.
However, not all games are optimized to work this way. Moreover, users should be aware of additional latency and possible lags. In case you experience issues with your WiFi, you can use the Network Analyzer app. It offers a number of tools that may help to diagnose current and potential problems.
