  • Worst app don’t even bother wasting your money

    Worst app don’t even bother wasting your money! This app is a joke so they begin by telling you how you can now access your Xbox one every where you go….. ha not even close, more what they should say is access where ever you can go in your house as long as you can access your wifi and when I mean only your wifi that’s no LTE no friends wifi and then the nail in the coffin it costs 12-13 dollars to buy! This thing has yet to connect anywhere out side of my house! I’m sure is was like you guys and having problems with the Xbox app which had really bad lag pixelization” I mean awful pixelization” so I looked for an alternative and stumbled across this joke of a app and it promises the moon but delivers a huge, I mean huge dissatisfaction! If you are like me having trouble with the Xbox app fear no more cause I have the answer for you….. hard wire you Xbox it’s that simple as soon as I did that the Xbox app runs perfect because when on wifi trying to play on a system that’s on wifi we’ll it’s understandable that your gonna have lag, pixelization and glitchy results! So remove the wifi to wifi and hard wire you Xbox to you modem or router and I promise you will be good to go! I use anytime with LTE, wifi on my friends, doctors, fast food places etc. you get the point just please don’t waste your money on this ridiculous app I’m requesting a refund as I type so, BEST WISHES AND HAPPY GAMING!!!!!

  • Worth the price

    Honestly, I was suspicious that a 3rd party app would be able to do what the official Xbox app couldn’t. It really just puts Microsoft to shame how well this works. The built-in on-screen controller isn’t great, but AT LEAST IT HAS ONE. It also feels like a problem more with the hardware I’m using. Would be cool if you could customize the sensitivity of the control sticks. Regardless, though, this app just works AND you can actually play original Xbox and 360 games on your phone, something that you cannot do with the current official app. Just craziness.

  • Extreme lag and disappointing

    This was an absolute waste of money. I bought this and connected to my Xbox. I tried to play madden 21 which is like the only game I play on the Xbox. At first it seemed ok it was a little laggy but worked great. Then I tried to play a match against someone online and it was extremely laggy. The game would stop and then a second later my player would be 5 yards away from before and then it would repeat. I got sacked almost every play because I didn’t know what was happening because of the horrible lag.

    DO NOT BUY THIS APP. It is an absolute waste of money. At least if you try to play madden. You can do the same remote play type of thing with the Xbox app for FREE.

    Sincerely, Truman

  • Overall this app is great but I have one problem

    So I purchased this app so I could play Xbox remotely without the need to bring my controler everywhere I go and it does solve the problem of wanting to play Xbox in my room and not having to move the console but one thing I wish that this had was support for long distance support like the Xbox app for example with the Xbox app I could play my Xbox using a wireless Bluetooth Xbox controller from my school with my Xbox all the way at home I wish that this app had that capability although I do understand how that might be difficult to implement overall this is a greet app keep up the good work

  • Phenomenal App; Just Needs an Update

    App works fine and has done so for as long as I’ve had it (since launch). It then gained much more love from me when they added Apple TV support as well. This made it much easier to play in another room instead of uprooting the entire console. With that said, I am looking forward to support for the Series X|S. While it is a shame that this app does not currently support the consoles, the alternatives (Xbox App and Xbox Cloud Gaming) are still pretty decent. The only downside is being limited to iPhone or iPad, but I believe that soon enough there will be support. Thank you for this app and we look forward to the future update(s)!

  • Simply Great

    Paired with a controller, this app is a must have for a serious gamer who would like to roam around their home unhindered by not having a television in front of them. It can be used like a Wii U to control the game on the tv, or simply free up the television so someone else can use it while you still play. The input is pretty good for a video game streaming service, and I’ve even played FPS games with it before with pretty great success. I really can’t find much fault in this app, it rarely disconnects even as opposed to remote play from PlayStation. There are other apps but none as reliable as OneCast

  • Best reliable streaming app ever!!

    I don’t know how but this app works so much better and smoother than the actual Xbox app itself!! And this app connects to my Xbox Every. Single. Time! Not even the official Xbox app itself does that, this app does it perfectly! Games like Mortal Kombat, Contra, and Call of duty Modern warfare multiplayer were all pretty smooth on my end. Being able to use the touchscreen as a controller is a nice touch but I’ll stick with my controller. For references, my xbox is connected via Ethernet and my IPhone SE is connected to my 5G wifi. And like I said, the games I played all ran smooth! And I’ve been able to stream to my phone every time! On the official Xbox app, it would always tell me there’s an error when connecting, and once I did connect. Frames at times would be a bit messy... With this app, and the right setup. You will not have that problem!! 10 bucks is a bit steep but if you’re like me and can’t be in the same room as your Xbox often, it is worth it! Highly recommend!

  • Over priced and doesn’t even work well

    I have looked at reviews on this app a lot in the past before making a decision on a $12 app. The reviews made it seem like this app was great and that made me exited. When I got the app it seemed good since there are no adds and there are a lot of customizations to many things in the settings like video quality (which could get very high for streaming). But then I started to notice that the app would constantly not connect when I wanted to reconnect to my Xbox and would lad a lot when I was at high resolution even though I am running 250mbps-300mbps WiFi. I don’t think you would have a problem with the app if you didn’t disconnect and reconnect to your Xbox, but I know for a fact this app is overpriced and I would recommend just trying to get a screen with hdmi instead of streaming to a device.

  • Very Legit

    I played Xbox in bed while laying down but I gotta be honest games that don’t require multiplayer online they run almost seamlessly without lag and it’s so cool but as for online multiplayer with some games in particular they can run somewhat smoothly and others are just unplayable but the app suggests to connect the Xbox console to a Lab cable Or Via Ethernet for 100% smooth lag free gaming but for me I’m simply running wirelessly and I never get any lag issues while playing online but through the app it can become a bit choppy and sometimes unplayable but for games that are on disk or in general single player in an open world. It works Very Very well and im definitely going to continue to use it when I don’t feel like sitting in front of a tv. Love the app totally worth the Price for an upgrade in features and variety.

  • Awesome

    So I finally decided to try this app, because of the extremely disappointing announcement that certain cloud based streaming services which I won’t name, won’t be coming to iOS. I was a little hesitant to spend $12 on it, because I was nervous whether it would actually work lag free or not.

    I can not believe how well this works!! I have my Xbox One hardwired to my LAN and am using medium quality on my 5ghz network (device is an iPhone XR) and it works nearly flawlessly. If I increase the quality it starts to stutter just a little, but it still looks great on medium, I think it’s still at least 720p which is good enough for me. On medium there’s no lag whatsoever and I finally have the portable Xbox I’ve always wanted but Microsoft never made. Now, I can play Halo or Forza sitting on the couch with my wife without hogging the TV in the evenings. Worth every penny! Feel dumb that I waited so long to spend the money.

    Thanks so much!
