Don’t buy
App is unreliable. It allowed me to connect and hasn’t allowed me to connect since. Don’t waste your money.
Meh. Not as good as it could be.
Compared to something like Elgato Streamdeck, this is an app that leaves the user wanting more. Alfred on the Mac is very useful but takes a lot of time setting things up and the iPad version is pretty much the same, it takes a lot of setting up. It would be nice if we could shrink the sidebar, if the Mac app would replicate the chosen grid layout, etc. I do like how it stays awake though - even when the Mac goes to sleep. However, I’m sticking to Streamdeck - which I didn’t discover before buying this app else I wouldn’t have bought it.

Supremely disappointing
There is no way to get access to arbitrary keyboard and mouse controls so you have to manually build workflows for any little thing you would want to do.
Does not connect.
I will request a refund.
I love alfred, remote is okay
I'm just sad that the play/pause button doesn't work.
I don't use apple music, so I don't know if it works on that, but it does nothing to spotify and YouTube, etc.
I have no idea why the pause, skip, rewind buttons are not just equivalent to pressing the same on the keyboard and are instead bound to a software I'll never use.

Get the Power Pack and use this
I’ve been using this across two Macs for a number of years. Having a remote that you can configure yourself for just about anything? Priceless.
I didn’t think I’d like the 1.5 changes but they’re growing on me….
And yes one of the 5 remote screens is a TV remote for the 3 Mac media players on my machines. Tip: Try to match key bindings in every player you use…
Infinite possibilities here, even if you’ve never programmed a line of code in your life.

In need of an update
Not really usable these days
Waste of time and money
The app is misrepresented on the Apple store site. The iOS app is inexpensive but it’s catch bait BEWARE: it’s useless without buying the “power pack” for the MacBook Pro which is in British pounds @ $1.4/lb do >$30. It’s somewhere between childish and dysfunctional. It took about an hour to figure out how to connect the iPhoneX and then the functionality was minimal. Day 2 could not reconnect. Ok so forget about a few $ for an app but the system is constructed in a idiosyncratic way. Just a huge waste of time and money.

Update
Can we get an update for this app please.
Good app. Would be amazing with Shortcuts support
Imagine what you could do with this if you could trigger mac commands as part of a longer shortcuts workflow
