Could Be Better

I have been crashing and much less stable with my otherwise incredibly stable 9700k, 32g Corsair, 2080 build at stock clocks, in both Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen using my iPad Pro for buttons.
I mainly use my iPad for navigation while playing Elite but that isn’t really possible with this app. If you shrink it down to navigate with Road to Riches this app then makes you sign in with your complete email and password when returning. Ugh.
Input lag was out of control on the non-official shards I tried, while the official ones were instant. The official shards for Elite looked very dated and none were very easy to read from distance or at a glance with muted colors and small writing.
They advertise “Thousands of games”. Yes you can makes shards yourself, if you have tons of time, for lots of games, but there’s only pre-made shards for very few at best and many say they’re alphas.
The app has potential, I subbed for the year and I’m kind of sorry I did because right now, I feel it’s a bare bones experience at best.

Overhyped

Okay when it works, but more often - it does not. Lags, not loading PREMIUM shards, buttons on Avionics shard for Star Citizen has some buttons WITHOUT actions bounded to them.

Utterly disappointed. Mapped all needed buttons to my HOSAS and ditched this garbage

Email

I never got to try it out as it would not accept my e mail address as an address.

Game Changer!

I’ve been using GameGlass with Star Citizen for a few months and play with it on an iPad in between a pair of t16000 sticks. I love the setup. I have started experimenting with the Forge which is pretty cool and useful as well. Support is very good. Anytime I have reached out, I have gotten a quick reply. This is definitely worth the try, especially if you play any sim games.

Ehh

Worked just fine no issue, just kind of pointless when you already have all the key bindings memorized. It’s faster to use they keyboard then take your eyes off, find the button on the smooth touch screen then use the app.

Amazing Concept, okay execution

I love this. I really do. And if you have an iPad and play Star Citizen it is one of the most fun third party tools beside head tracking and a HOTAS flight stick that i have ever used. Yes there are connection problems but I am just happy someone made this at all.

Great concept, sadly not robust

Tried this for Elite Dangerous. I like the concept and when it worked I enjoyed the tool but sadly connection was pretty hit and miss. I initially connected fine, then went back and no connection possible. Reboot, connect, sometimes not. It also requires specific keybinds which interferes with VoiceAttack/HOTAS. One can work around this, but it just wasn’t worth it because of the irregular connection issues.

There’s not really any ‘new’ keys, it’s an innovative graphical representation of actions you can bind to your keyboard or HOTAS. 5 stars for concept, 2 for execution because of the connection issues. Maybe it’ll improve with time.

Good. When it works.

Getting it to work with my iPad was a chore and required several messages from the responsive tech support- have to be holding the iPad on its side when installing it otherwise it won’t work.

Most of the time, it just stops working, requiring one to uninstall and reinstall it. I like it when it’s working but it’s really more like a weekend science project alpha build. If I had it to do over, I wouldn’t spend any money on it until all the bugs are worked out of it.

Connection Fail.

I have a iPad and windows pc. Install both the software on my iPad and PC.

The iPad is on WiFi the gaming pc is hard wired to same router. I have a small net gate firewall between my router and gaming pc.

Can only assume that is stopping connection. No way to alter the ip to find my pc in their software so it’s no good to me.

Removed my net gate firewall and it worked fine.

Snap! An error has occurred.

I get the above error as soon as I select a game. Not a great start if they cant even tell me what went wrong.
