Artemis Android vs Greenlight

Artemis Android streams games from a Windows PC to an Android device at home or over the internet. It is an open-source client for Apollo and Sunshine, offered as a free Android download; the project provides an APK and recommends Obtainium for installation. Virtual controls include customizable buttons with import and export, gamepad skins, and a free joystick. Streaming settings cover custom resolutions and bitrates, video scaling, frame-rate locking fixes for some devices, and in-game pan and zoom. Mouse modes include normal, multitouch, touchpad, disabled, and local cursor options; non-QWERTY keyboard layouts and trackpad gestures are supported. Device features include external monitor and portrait modes, screen rotation, display-on-top for foldable phones, and Samsung DeX scrolling. Apollo is a self-hosted desktop host with hardware encoding for AMD, Intel, and Nvidia GPUs, plus optional software encoding.

Greenlight is a free, open-source client for Xbox Cloud Gaming and streaming from Xbox One and Xbox Series consoles. It carries console video and audio, with gamepad and keyboard controls; rumble is supported on xCloud. An online friends list shows which friends are currently online. Greenlight is made with JavaScript and TypeScript, and runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Its WebUI can also make the client available over a network to devices using Chromium-based browsers. Downloads are offered as Flathub installations and precompiled release binaries. The V2 release is in maintenance mode: its developers plan critical bug fixes but no new features. Version 2.4.0 changed authentication from XAL to MSAL and added English, Russian, and Ukrainian localization; German was added in version 2.4.2. The application is reported to work on Steam Deck, with some small bugs and side effects. Greenlight says it is not affiliated with Microsoft, Xbox, or Moonlight.
