  • Does what it says but not very well

    Wanted to control my OS X volume. Bit the bullet and purchased the full version to do so. It works, but really slowly and unreliably. To be fair, this might have something to do with the fact that I'm using Bluetooth speakers connected to OS X.
  • Great with Spotify and VLC

    Serves its purpose well. You need the premium version though.
    Worth the money and it is even possible to advance/go backwards inside of the same movie or sound, not just to be able to skip to the next/previous one. To do so just keep holding the prev/next button for few seconds.
    I only wish it was also showing the progress, especially in VLC to see where in the movie we are.

  • Can't choose where iTunes starts or what is played next

    This widget can control volume, pause/play, fast forward, and rewind only. It starts playing wherever iTunes e.g. has been left idle, or already started. IMO this limits its utility. Should be great for a situation where you have queued up content or have a playlist ready to go or running. But if you want to change the song,album, playlist etc you will need to dive deeper into your phone to use Remote, or use the Mac it's paired with to choose what you are listening to.
    Great for volume adjustment or starting stopping content but can't choose content or what you want to listen to next.

  • Needs Plex support

    Great potential but needs more support ie plex and mac interface
  • Now useless on older hardware

    Until the latest updates, it was working perfectly on my 4S under 8.3. Upgrading the OS on the 4S renders it virtually useless. I understand the need to support newer hardware and software, it's just very unfortunate the decision was made to phase out the existing equipment and software that worked just fine. And yes, I happen to have a newer phone with the newest shiny iOS. I just don't believe in throwing out a piece of technology because it's old.

  • Does exactly what it says it will.

    Wow, this is so great! I'm now chillin' in bed blasting songs on my speakers, connected to my computer, from my phone!

    Great app!
  • Useless

    It stays disconnected most of the time and only randomly connects for an hour or so
  • Great Free - Don't Go Pro

    The app was brilliant for free, but I definitely do not recommend purchasing the pro version, as you get next-to-nothing for its cost. As of yet, I haven't found one use for the pro and am regretting the buy.
  • Worth setting up

    Takes a while to set up but works very well with excellent iPhone integration. Really good app
  • Can't do everything I thought it would

    Meh. Unlike other remote apps, there is no ability to browse through your media library. All you can do is skip, pause, and change volume.
