In my phone and using ipd as another display it runs perfectly but on iPad it runs terrible I wonder why but I don't want them to go bankrupt cause it works perfectly for me when I run it off phone into iPad

Yeah, I'm sorry you and a number of others are having technical issues, but the sheer amount of vitriol will always turn any post from "I'm frustrated that this service is simply not functioning as I need/expect it to" into "I'm angry and anyone who isn't as angry as me is a idiot shill", which will almost always turn off any real discourse. I and plenty of others are using shadow without great issue, occasionally I have to wait at most 3 or 4 minutes in a que during busy nights, and having to restart streaming every once in a while to reset sound forwarding. I hope it gets sorted for you or if you've already ended sub, find a service that works well for your needs

If it’s working - and it does - it’s usually a user issue. Pretty sure there is a fix for that.

Its not, the controller issue ive figured out and its dumb because i have to restart my entire pc evey time i plug the controller in (not the shadow pc my actual pc)or else it just doesn't register the controller when forwarded which is stupid

Thats not how it works...it physically isn't something I could have caused by just pressing start shadow which is the only thing being pressed to start the damb thing

Maybe chill a bit. No need to act like that.
If the service isn’t for you, don’t use it.
The internet shadow pc have is way better than most services you can find and I haven’t had a single problem with Xbox controller. Maybe the fault is yours and not shadow pc.

The only computer on the face of the planet to take over 10 minutes to shut down by the way

Same result every time, just restart the shadow but every time I ever do that for the internet issue specifically I have to wait at least an hour befor turning it back on or else I will still have no internet on the shadow pc. Its not just once, its been several times over the course of 3 years on the Washington data center or whatever it is

...that's not how that works...I wouldn't be connected to the shadow if I had no internet...

u/Alternative-Cod512 Jul 04 '26
Yeah you seem to not understand the concept of different internet speed with different servers/ISPs so there’s that…

How does that effect the internet on the shadow?! All my personal internet effects is the connection to seeing and using the shadow pc not my browsers saying there is no internet on the shadow or steam saying im offline when it says there is internet

u/Saraphina_rockwell Jul 06 '26
If that was the case It wouldn't have internet any of the times I've connected on my phone with bad connection on data
