I simply used it for a Wi-Fi remote control with a old TV hooked up to a computer. Good for streaming movies via network using tablets to be able to watch and the apps also the remote control as still learning a lot more about it. It's an awesome app love

I give this app a 5 stars again. Originally the app stopped working and kept saying wifi required. After troubleshooting, I realized it was my windows pc firewall. I recommend temporarily disabling windows firewall and testing it if it doesn't work.

Speech to text: great! Swyping: meh! Nice app for speech to text. From my Android to my Mac. Unfortunately its does'nt seem to support swyping. Which is for me a major drawback for working/typing fast. Hope this will be added in the near future! UPDATE 2022-06-23: over three years later... still no support for swyping... What a pity!

This would have been 5*as I have used it for a while and it works really well. That was until I tried to use it today, after not using it for a while, I get the message "Wi-Fi required" the app is not picking up that I am already connected to Wi-Fi. This renders the app completely useless. Please fix this bug.

Pretty good app. I do hope that we can set the navigation button off cus the mouse click button is blocking some of the view. Also i hope we can set the display resolution, cus some parts near the taskbar is invisible and you can only see it if u point ur mouse towards the taskbar. Lastly, eventhough it says view ur desktop in real time, there is a considerably time lag. Watching a screenshare from my pc discord is even faster compared to the dislay on this mouse. I hope this can be fixed.

UPDATE: After purchasing the paid version I'm still getting those annoying locked feature messages. Pls remove. Additionally, the keyboard remote does not come equipped with a mouse thus requiring an unnecessary additional step to execute basic commands, which can be frustrating and at times renders the app almost pointless. DEVELOPERS: PLEASE ADD A MOUSE TO EACH REMOTE BUT ESPECIALLY THE KEYBOARD. How can it be a fully functioning keyboard without a mouse.

A wonderful suite of tools for accessing a computer from your mobile device. The upgrades are also relatively cheap and function really well, making it worth it in the end. I recommend the upgrade that allows you to view your desktop from your phone.

Works pretty good. There are just 2 annoying bugs: 1. It opens the most recent used keyboard. If that was the number keyboard then there is no option to switch to the normal keyboard. 2. The desktop client sometimes hangs and has to be closed through the task manager.

I've really enjoyed using this app. The only issue I have is that it sometimes buffers and hangs making it difficult to operate and the lagging hangs for a while, especially when viewing your monitor through the phone screen. Otherwise it's a great and a perfect app to use.

And I'm explaining why because right now you can only use two functions and it's kind of difficult and if you don't have a Wi-Fi connection it doesn't work you need to be able to set this up to where they can still use it even though they're not online that was the whole purpose of me downloading this app so I could still run my computer when I was in the room without having to go to the keyboard and to the into the into the mouse at the at my at my computer desk I wanted to be able to do it

Giving this three because it is very glitchy. Installed it to use my phone as a touchpad/mouse for laptop. First time I connected, I could move the mouse pointer but neither right or left mouse buttons worked. Next time I used it -- everything worked. Last time I used it mouse buttons worked but I couldn't get mouse pointer to move ??

This app has been amazing for many years. However, windows has suddenly started blocking it, I added to firewall and still refuses connection. What to do, I tried on mac and works fine. What to do with Microsoft bully, please help, have paid features since 2014.

Excellent service but it would be great if you could combine 2 option together such as using the mouse and media controller together instead of having to switch in and out of the two or at least to have shortcuts to each constantly displayed so you can easily navigate rather than going back to the menu each time.

Doesn't send Korean symbols correctly. For instance "한글" would be sent as separate symbols as "ㅎㅏㄴㄱㅡㄹ". Even with a Korean language enabled. Quite annoying. Also it would have been nice to change the apps color to something other than blue. Other than that I'm very pleased with the app.

Once I used with it, I was fully capable of using my desktop remotely. As stable as strong the network connection is, but for such a convincing tool it requires reasonable network speed. It work perfect with my basic home WiFi and router. Instant connection and response. Will recommend

Code for trial does not work. code. android-remote com redirects to Facebook and Facebook page does not exist. Concerned that is the trial code does not work if the playoffs version will have issues. Otherwise the app is quicker than many of the other mouse/keyboard apps.

Excellent application! For a very reasonable one-time payment, you got all the funtionality and features of many other very expensive application. Only things that should improve: - Windows PC server has a nasty bug that prevents preferences to be saved (at least, "start at boot" and "start minimized" - Android app UI may be way better. It's not very intuitive, and definitely not comfortable.

This app requires a lot of fixes. When I use the scroll feature on the trackpad to scroll down or up for example YouTube, sometimes it only zooms in and out my desktop page, but it doesn't scrolls up or down, which makes it impossible to navigate. Also I wish there were fingers gestures, it would make the navigation so much easier and the "grab" feature, where you can grab the screen and move it around. I hope my review will be taken in the consideration.

Very nice application and done very professionally. I wish there could be some desktop icon change to indicate the server is running or just stop a second instant of it from running. Running Windows 11 here. At start up it does not always connect. When hiding the control panel in the task bar it disappears completely. But I like the app that's why I bought it. Hope I get it figured out.
