Android Full Functions on App

CaptGiggles — Tue, 22 Jun 2021 19:55:35 GMT

I was wondering when the Android App will be getting the rest of the features the Chrome version has. Android has no voice chat feature due to it currently be worked on. Using Chrome on my phone overheats the hell out of phone and drains the battery from 100% to 0% in about 3-4 hours. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy S10+, my battery doesnt drain fast.The main things I want to see are Voice chat, and the in-game overlay to be the same as Chrome. On the app you get a giant white bar at the bottom when you get a message. While on Chrome you get a small pop up.on your screen. On games like Destiny 2, the hud is on the bottom and the chat message bar blocks out your hud for a couple seconds.

@CaptGiggles Hey! Stadia doesn't have a public roadmap for voice chat on mobile and UI changes that you mentioned. Your best bet is to keep an eye on Stadia socials and you'll see updates as they arrive.

It's honestly something that should have been done already. If Google wants to keep up with the other cloud streaming services it should bring it's platform up to speed with what other services are offering. Xbox Cloud is probably in the lead right now. Stadia has by far the best latency when it comes to getting a console experience, however it's lacking many features to make it stand out or at the very least be equal.

@CaptGiggles Saying Xbox is in the lead is pretty subjective

Stadia works on more devices than xcloud and can play games in 4k while Xcloud caps out at 1080. There's numerous other Stadia advantages as well over Xcloud but the joy is that you can use Stadia AND Xcloud if you choose to

Stadia works on the exact same amount of platforms as Xbox Cloud. Xbox cloud may not have 4k, but it does have a larger library of games for unlmited access for only 15 a month. versus stadia charging you for each game. The only thing Stadia has over other streaming services is that its input latency is very low.
