    Great app. One small flaw
    As the title says, app is great. Full featured and powerful. The one function that they appear to have overlooked and failed to address (and that comes in necessary quite frequently) is the lack of an ability to respond to dialogue boxes on the local machine. They can pop up over the video, requiring physical presence at the keyboard/mouse/trackpad in order to respond, negating the point of the app. Show more

    Not worth it
    I paid the 4.99 and it wasn’t worth it, the app has to be restarted after a couple min cause it loses connection and won’t even find my pc until I close and restart, needless to say I definitely won’t be renewing my subscription, had a lot of hope for this app too pretty disappointing.

    I bought this app for full price, now I need to pay annually?
    I bought the full version of this app back in 2010. Now that I return back to iOS, I find that my purchase is non-existent. I'm instead asked to download the free app and pay $5/year just to use the app I already bought an indefinite license to, over 12 years ago. F*** this immortal company. Gonna get another remote app instead, or use the dozens on Android. iOS really fell off. Shm. Show more

    Price
    The only app in the store that is worth every cent. But no more.

    Convenient, easy to use
    Super convenient, I was able to watch whole movies using my phone as a remote. setup time was less than a minute
  • BlllllRrrgghhgg, 21.12.2020
    Actually works, with a few issues
    I’m impressed with how well this app works and how easy it is to get working, but I did find that I had to close the app on my iPad in order to prevent frequent pauses in playback. Once the video is playing and the app is closed, it works perfectly. Show more

    Epic App
    All the controls I could ask for and more!
  • AmyCath, 09.05.2020
    Such an impressive app
    I’m so surprised at the capabilities of this app. It’s so helpful and offers control over so many more options than I imagined. I highly recommend it.
