The ‘Apple Problem’

Jump to Best Response

I appreciate this is something that Stadia has limited control over, but it would be great if we could get some insight into the plan to move forward with Stadia on Apple.

Like many others, I’m an Apple user (phone, iPad) and as it stands the Apple Apps store rules are preventing me from playing Stadia on my mobile devices...this of course isn’t Goggles fault, but it would be good to know what the plan is...!

Will there be a iOS web compatible version of Stadia (following Luna’s announcement), are Google working a way to meet Apple’s crazy App Store rules, or is that Stadia on Apple parked for the foreseeable future?

Any insight that can be offered would be really appreciated...even if it is the latter and somewhat bad news for Apple users.

There's absolutely no way Google are working to fit Apple's new streaming policy. If it's happening, it'll be a PWA (like Amazon's offering), as VP9 is finally supported in iOS 14.

if its possible to stream through a web app on the phone then they should go for it.

Hey @Matt1

Glad to have you in the Founders Hub! Friendly reminder that this is not a Founders-specific support forum and all support (including specific feature request inquiries) posts should be directed towards the main forum. I'll be moving this post out of the Founders Hub to give all Stadia Community members the opportunity to chime in.

Thanks for understanding!
