Still, in any case, at least all companies know the approach Apple is taking.

Something like Screens probably isn’t considered as big a threat to Apple’s gaming ecosystem as Xbox Game Pass would be to, say, Apple Arcade. Remote desktop applications like Screens or Chrome Remote Desktop let you make all kinds of purchases that Apple hasn’t been able to review. Plus, Apple’s logic has never really made sense if you think outside of the gaming ecosystem. Microsoft’s Netflix-esque service, at least the last time I checked, doesn’t have a huge library of tank dating simulators or waifu bait, but you can find plenty of that on Steam - and presumably play it through Steam Link once it’s added to your account. So the logic doesn’t really square off, particularly when you consider some of the titles available on Steam versus the more tightly curated offering of Xbox Game Pass. Of course, this is a massively moot point when users can just open the iOS Steam app directly and add games to their account.
