Useful app—I’ve used Pro on Apple without issues, but my Pro features didn’t transfer to Android. No 'restore' option, and no response from support yet. Also, please add a true dark mode! The bright UI makes it hard to use as a media remote in dark rooms. If these issues get fixed, I’d happily update my rating.

haven't used this in several years, and seems to work as great as i remember it. just install on computer and have both devices on same wifi, took less than a minute. i used to use this when i used my laptop as a streaming device, extending my screen with hdmi to a non-smart tv. if i remember correctly, this also lets you use your keyboard if you click a search bar. purchase not needed, but lifetime option is awesome. only suggestion is to add themes/dark mode to the interface, outside wallpaper

It's real glitchy and full of bugs, works when it wants and it's only for a short time as soon as you use one to click buttons or just tap in the screen to click an item makes it freeze not sure if it freezes in the phone since it's just a screen but causes the computer to freeze, but the idea is terrific especially for a laptop because like me I hate using the damn touchpad after a while my wrist hurts so the mobile mouse on my phone was perfect! Use AI to fix your code, fast and easy.
