    You don't need to use Steam to run FG on android I have used a program Splashtop though I would recommend attaching a mouse via an OTG cable and unless you have huge tablet like android on a TV I don't thing you could GM of a tablet. Splashtop also works over the internet so for example if you were away on a business trip you could get your Mrs to turn on your PC then remote in from your hotel room and not miss your game!

    As others have pointed out, this is incorrect.

    The Steam "version" of FG is simply a stub that launches the normal FantasyGrounds.exe application - which then accesses all of your DLC, campaigns, community content, etc. as normal. Even Steam FG purchases aren't installed through Steam - you need to sync your purchases to FG and then the FG updater installs them.
    Private Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages. General FG questions should be asked in the forums - don't be afraid, the FG community don't bite and you're giving everyone the chance to respond and learn!

    Run FG on your PC, then use Steam Link to stream it (display it) to your tablet. It's like a remote desktop.

    This is not new technology. I guess the excitement is "Steam".

    I have been using a product called TeamViewer for a couple years now. There is an IOS app so I can use my iPad. Fantasy Grounds runs on a remote computer (remote being in the US while I'm in Mexico, or in my home office while I'm in the living room) and I control it via my iPad, my iPhone 8+, my laptop, …


    BTW I have done this to avoid the Port Forwarding issue when I don't know or can't come up with a password for the router in a remote location also.
