Rainway

Rainway had great potential in beta, I’ve tested rainway at every stage, the intial web-only releases, the beta of the Xbox and iPhone releases, and will continue to test releases. The release version on the iOS rainway client is awful, unlike the beta, the app has now added an on display controller that makes only games with controller support playable, the skin also does not go away with a physical controller synced or physical keyboard/mouse connected. The beta allowed mouse and keyboard control through usb, Bluetooth and touchscreen for mouse. I am impressed with what rainway offers, and I am impressed they got this app on the Apple store, but the app is not as good as it used to be - room for improvement.

I've been using Rainway since you released the beta and asked people to test it. I was extremely excited cause what you did was absolutely amazing!! Although I do admit the beta version had many security flaws.. But I was hoping you would fix those issues without removing the user's freedom of interaction. I used to be able to control the cursor and tap wherever I needed to. I even managed to play Divinity Original Sins on my phone (although the screen is a little small and I had to be very precise as to where I tap), it was very playable! Unfortunately you removed this feature and instead put a controller that is stuck on the screen (FYI the controller is useless.. Even when I open a game that requires a controller, the controller still doesn't work). By doing so you've unfortunately rendered the app pretty much useless. I am still going to rate your app a 4 stars because I know what your app is capable of, and how great it was during the beta testing stage. But without some crucial changes, and soon, Rainway will crash. And another company will take your idea and run you over. You've got the potential to be very huge, I hope you get there!!!

I think that the user interface is good, though since I don’t have a laptop, do you think that you will ever make the app not have to stream from your pc and then instead stream your pc library of games like Nvidia GeForce Now, as well.

Using on my iPad Rainway refuses to give 60fps streaming at all and refuses to give even a smooth streaming experience at 30fps, Constant stuttering and artefacts even when on the lowest settings. Moonlight works absolutely flawlessly compared to this, The UI is fantastic.. but no idea but the experience here is crap

No touch screen support for RTS/strategy games, not every game can be played with controllers. Too many bugs and set up took over an hour because the client side app didn't ask for correct permissions and so wouldn't connect to host. Give it a few months but for now it's useless.
