User reviews

Clean and simpler than the majority of other apps out there distracting people from what they were even intending on browsing, now a little turned around, (dis-ori-ented) some might say, more(OFF/kiltered), actually, that soon leads to, confusion, I'm stable balance, dizziness, sometimes leading to, D€∆T#!!°©°®®|©©%. OKAY, rarely, alright mostly, PROLLY no, well maybe never, but don't let some fancy comforting words from some ad commentary professional psychologist, degree after degree, smart🥱S

It almost works as intended, but I don't see a use for it. It's just the world's most awkward controller. And for some reason, it will only connect to one account, even when I set it up on another, it just logs into that profile and works for that. Don't waste your storage on getting this app.

I wanted to route the audio from my ps4 to my cell phone via Bluetooth connection &/or wifi network, but it doesn't seem possible with this. I'm only rating it low bc I think the name of the app is kind of misleading; you can't use your phone as a second screen at all. If you can, i don't see how to begin to broadcast from ps4 -> phone. Btw i got the idea bc i used to route my tablet's audio to pc so i could use one pair of buds for PC and Android at once. This would be a dope feature btw 🌚
