      <description>&lt;P&gt;The blame falls on Apple for this one.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The policies Apple currently employs would require Google, Microsoft, etc to submit each game to the App Store for rating, searchability within the App Store and most importantly to Apple - the 30% profit cut.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;And as for why they can't use a web browser, currently the codec Stadia runs on (which I believe is VP9) is not compatible with Safari.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It's the other way around, Leo! It's Apple that is preventing Stadia to work on its platform, because they want to make sure they get their share out of the business.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;They're starting to open things somehow lately, though. Signals are encouraging &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.stadia.com/html/@86D5B654F5634F41B85D1B72D3D92E1F/emoticons/1f642.png" alt=":slightly_smiling_face:" title=":slightly_smiling_face:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm quite sure they can figure out a way to run it with a compatible codec through Safari like Luna will do.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It will come now that a path has been made.&amp;nbsp; I am pleasantly surprised how nice it is to play Hitman on an iPad.&amp;nbsp; Didn't expect that.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm just gonna throw it out, although I think it is a very unpopular OPINION.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Yes, it's Apple that is blocking it and I am for 99,99% sure it has to do with money. We as players don't like this of course, cause we want to experience the freedom Stadia is promising (which is working out quite well!). And that is the whole problem: we want that freedom, but in case of games, I have a feeling we never really had that.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I could be wrong of course, but you can also not play Halo on a Playstation. Or Crash Bandicoot on Xbox. It's not entirely the same, but gaming platforms (software) has always been restricted to the hardware. You can buy a PC game, but not play it on Mac. You can buy an xbox game, but not play it on Playstation. I have a feeling this is a little bit the same: you can not play a Stadia game on iOS.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If I am selling Hugo Boss clothing in my store and I don't want to sell Gucci, that's my decision, right? To be honest: I would say "if Apple doesn't want it on their platform, it's their right". Just as we have the right to buy another phone. &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.stadia.com/html/@A57CE24C71962EAC7AEC8F478DFCE817/emoticons/1f609.png" alt=":winking_face:" title=":winking_face:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Besides that. I can totally imagine that a company like Apple doesn't like it if you put a FREE app in THEIR store, only to be selling games through that platform. You would say: "yeah, well, just use Apple's In-App purchases and be done with it", but 30% cut is of course a lot. AND don't forget: you can also buy your games using the Chrome Browser or an Android device. So theoratically I can buy all my games on my desktop and play them on my iPad, while Apple is making no money at all, BUT they are providing the store, security, etc.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I do believe Apple has a monopoly on their own platform, but it's their platform. Just as Sony has it on their Playstation and Microsoft on their Xbox. Don't get me wrong, I want Stadia on my iPad as well, but I have to be fair: if Apple doesn't want to sell in their store, I think it's their right. And I am no fan of Apple whatsoever. If there was a great Android tablet to buy here in NL I would. But there is just none as good as an iPad imo.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Rant over, game on! Let's patiently wait and see if these tech giants will play ball.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Apple's latest guidelines actually say quite clearly that using a browser is an alternative to following their App Store submission requirements. That's how Luna works, and Apple has no issue with it. BTW, Stadia supports both VP9 and H.264 codecs (the latter being one that Apple has supported for a long time). More recent versions of Safari/Webkit do support VP9, as well (iOS 14 does, and macOS 11 will). However, the technology that is most likely making the difference here is support for the QUIC protocol, which is what Stadia uses to transport the video stream. That was only recently added to Safari/Webkit.</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Maybe they do - and are looking at the (tech/legal) ramifications of creating an official app. Good to know that it has been shown to work....&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
