Inside the app
Good to know
Privacy policy ↗Where is the source code?
Starfold is now open source on GitHub. Use the GitHub button on this page to view the repository.
Will it be on the App Store?
The current direction is open source, with no App Store download available. An App Store release remains possible; this page will be updated if one becomes available.
Which platforms is Starfold for?
Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Vision Pro and Apple TV. See the GitHub repository for system requirements. Remote play requires a Microsoft account, your own Xbox console and a stable network connection.
Do I need Xbox Game Pass?
Remote play of your own console does not need Game Pass. Xbox Cloud Gaming requires your own Game Pass subscription where Microsoft requires one; free-to-play titles such as Fortnite can be played without it.
How do I set up remote play on my console?
On your Xbox, open Settings > Devices & connections > Remote features, turn on "Enable remote features", and set the power mode to Sleep so the console can wake up. Sign in to Starfold with the same Microsoft account and your console appears on the home screen.
Can I play when I'm away from home?
Yes. On your home network it just works. Away from home, your router needs UPnP enabled or the console's ports forwarded; check Settings > General > Network settings on the Xbox to test your connection and NAT type.
Which controllers are supported?
Controllers that work with Apple devices, including Xbox Wireless Controllers, DualSense and DualShock 4, and other MFi controllers over Bluetooth. On iPhone and iPad you can play with on-screen touch controls instead, and on Mac you can also use keyboard and mouse.
Is Starfold an official Xbox app?
No. Starfold is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Microsoft Corporation.
What happens to my data?
We collect nothing: no analytics, no ads, no tracking and no accounts with us. You sign in with Microsoft in your browser, so Starfold never sees your password, and your sign-in tokens stay in your device's Keychain.
How do I get support?
Email dev.sunapp24@gmail.com. Tell us your device, console model and what you see, and we'll help.
