Unlock the Full Power of Cloud Gaming on iOS
CloudGear is a next-generation web browser for iPhone and iPad, designed specifically for cloud gaming services such as GeForce NOW, Xbox Cloud Gaming (xCloud), and Boosteroid.
Safari holds cloud gaming back — missing essential features like controller rumble, mouse pointer lock, HDR, 10-bit color, and true fullscreen immersion. CloudGear solves this with a custom-built, low-latency rendering engine and comprehensive hardware integration, delivering the performance and immersion that iOS gamers deserve.
Uncompromised Performance & Visuals
Our custom engine shatters the limits of mobile browsing, unlocking the potential for peak performance and stunning visual fidelity.
High-Resolution & Smooth Frame Rates
Experience buttery-smooth gameplay with support for up to 120 FPS and stunningly clear 5K video on supported platforms.
HDR & 10-Bit Color
See games the way developers intended with high dynamic range. Deep blacks, bright highlights, and rich color gradients bring virtual worlds to life.
Advanced Codec Support
Full support for AV1 and H.265 ensures you get the crispest image quality at the most efficient bitrates.
Immersive Audio
Go beyond stereo with support for up to 7.1 channel surround sound and head-tracked spatial audio that puts you in the center of the action.
Specific feature availability like resolution, FPS, and HDR depends on the cloud gaming service and your subscription tier.
Desktop-Class Controls & Immersion
Whether you're on a cloud gaming platform or a browser-based HTML5 game, CloudGear instantly upgrades your experience with features that Safari lacks.
True Mouse Pointer Lock
Get the precision you need for competitive play. Your cursor is captured within the game for flawless, uninterrupted aiming, just like on a PC.
Full Controller Vibration
Feel every impact, explosion, and rumble through any connected gamepad for maximum immersion.
Immersive Fullscreen Mode
