Samsung is ending support for the Steam Link app on its TVs. It will no longer be available on the platform after November 30th, 2023, while Samsung has shifted focus to its newer Game Hub with cloud streaming apps built-in.
In a post earlier this month, Valve announced the Steam Link app will “no longer be available on Samsung TV after November 30th, 2023.” The service lets users wirelessly stream PC games from their Steam library to other devices, such as a TV or phone. It launched with the Steam Link dongle in 2015, which was discontinued in 2018 in favor of the app.
While the Steam Link app might’ve seemed like a viable alternative to the dongle, users have had mixed experiences with the app on Samsung TVs. For example, some Samsung TV users have encountered an issue where the right thumbstick on their controller controls the TV’s volume, while others have said their app freezes when trying to stream in a resolution higher than 1080p.
