Fluid Link

The desktop companion app for Fluid

Last updated 2 months ago

Fluid Link allows you to use applications your Windows or Mac computer alongside native Fluid browser windows. You can download it at .

What does it offer?

Fluid Link lets you stream any application on your computer in a floating, standalone window. Additionally, you can stream your entire screen, and interact with it through the Keyboard and Mouse you have connected to your Headset.

There is a free trial mode, which allows you to work in sessions of 15 minutes. After that, you will either have to restart the Fluid Link Client on your computer, or unlock unlimited time using a one-time payment of $10.99 (€9.99) within the app.

Features

  • Stream any app from your computer as an individual window, or cast your screen.

  • Interact with your computer directly through Fluid, including mice and keyboards connected straight to your headset.

  • Your streams are securely encrypted and stays on your local WiFi network.

  • Ability to share the clipboard between your computer and your headset for the most seamless productivity experience.

  • Free trial mode (works 15 min at a time), otherwise a one-time payment of $10.99 (€9.99) to unlock unlimited time, purchased from inside of Fluid.

What will be added in the future?

We are planning to add the ability to upload/download files from your computer, as well as making it so that you can use Fluid Link on multiple computers at once. Sound passthrough is also currently not supported, but this will be added in a later update.

Sidenotes

  • Fluid Link is primarily optimized for productivity, and therefore, watching videos (including Netflix) will be a sub-optimal experience.

  • Fluid Link does not work on some shared WiFi networks, which may include those of Public Coffee Shops, Airports, Hotels and more.

  • For now, your apps need to be visible on your physical monitors to be streamable.

  • Fluid Link is currently still in beta. Bugs, missing features and performance issues are a given. If you're experiencing any unexpected issues, feel free to tell us on our .

  • The on-headset Fluid Link App only works using the Gecko Engine. If you see a "Cleartext not permitted" error, it means that it's trying to open up Fluid Link using Chromium. You can switch engines in the 3-dot menu on the top right.
