About Moonlight For Rooted Devices APK
Table Of Contents
Description
This app is specifically for rooted devices. It enables full mouse capturing which is not possible without root prior to Android 8.0 Oreo. This means no double cursor or being limited to the bounds of the screen. If your device is not rooted, download this instead: https://tinyurl.com/moonlight-nonrootedAndroid Oreo/8.0 users: Official support for mouse capture without requiring root is included in Android 8.0. You should use the normal non-root version of Moonlight on Oreo and later Android versions instead of this version. It has the same mouse capture capabilities as this root version, but with better OS integration with multi-window and other features.
Root-specific info: Press Ctrl+Shift+Z to toggle grabbing input devices.
This app streams games, programs, or your full desktop from an NVIDIA GameStream-compatible PC on your local network or the Internet using NVIDIA GeForce Experience. Mouse, keyboard, and controller input is sent from your Android device to the PC.
Streaming performance may vary based on your client device and network setup. HDR requires an HDR10-capable device, GTX 1000-series GPU, and HDR10-enabled game.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
4 ★Almost seemlessly integrates into gamestream. Only caviot is the on-screen controls aren't very configurable, and the skin is ugly. Quite easily fixed with a MOGA or ps3 controller.
5 ★Absolutely amazing what my phone is capable of. This app is at the level of perfection now. Nvidia can kiss my ass if they think I'm gonna buy a shield just to stream my games.
5 ★In the right conditions, powerful PC, decent tablet (not super high requirements on the tablet), and fast local network with good WiFi signal, this runs amazingly smooth on my tablet. Gave my tablet new life over sitting at my PC nonstop.
5 ★Great app, works okay but only a few stutter every 1-2mins on my Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime running GTX 1050 Ti graphics card on my Desktop.
4 ★Great app... It would get the full 5 stars if it supported haptic feedback. The official Gamestream app has that protocol in it now.
4 ★I also love that you managed to make the launcher icon a butthole and got away with it.
1 ★I will open the app and i cannot find my pc on either my phone or tablet and putting in the ip doesnt work either
5 ★This app is a real game changer. I am glad to see they are going back to updating it. Keep it up #1 game stream app
5 ★Amazing. It's amazing when you just want to lay on the couch and game. It has good customizabilities and it's easy to use.
5 ★Great app what would be awesome is haptic feedback when playing games if compatible would be cool
5 ★Awesome app. Dev definitely deserves support. I'd pay for this app this the option is available.
5 ★Really good application to stream my PC games to my Galaxy S6.
