PC gaming company Valve is currently testing its Steam Link app on Android. The app allows players to stream PC games to their phone. However, if you own an iOS device, this may not be possible for the foreseeable future. Indeed, Apple has recently rejected the Steam Link app, meaning it will not be coming the App Store.

According to Valve, Apple initially approved the iOS version for release on 7th May. However, due to business conflicts with app guidelines not realised by the original review team, Apple changed their minds.

Valve’s appeal has been denied by Apple, but the operator of Steam hopes that the company will reconsider.

Here’s Valve’s full statement:

On Monday, May 7th, Apple approved the Steam Link app for release. On Weds, May 9th, Valve released news of the app. The following morning, Apple revoked its approval citing business conflicts with app guidelines allegedly not realised by the original review team. Valve appealed, explaining the Steam Link app simply functions as a LAN-based remote desktop similar to numerous remote desktop applications already available on the App Store. Ultimately, that appeal was denied leaving the Steam Link app for iOS blocked from release. The team here spent many hours on this project and the approval process. But we hope Apple will reconsider in the future.
