### 1/5 — Umm.

*2021-12-02, version 3.7*

What do I do

### 1/5 — No

*2021-08-13, version 3.7*

You can’t do anything without buying pro version. Like I was just messing around and I thought I’ll find a fake keyboard to mess around with on my ipad. I found this one, downloaded it, and i tried to mess around with the mouse and keys but all it said for everything was this and other features are available with pro version. I would really like it if some of the stuff was free. I’m not saying everything should be free but just somethings so you can play with it without buying anything. It’s ok if you can’t do it I would just really appreciate it if you put this idea into consideration. Thank you for reading this and have a great rest of the day!

### 5/5 — I love this

*2020-11-30, version 3.7*

Two of my laptop keys stopped working, and I accidentally went into the woods to hibernate without my Bluetooth keyboard. This app saved me. It’s very well made and easy to use; if you don’t think so, that’s due to your own lack of understanding of the challenges of making something like this. And he’s still supporting it! So grateful.

### 3/5 — iPhone to ipad?

*2020-07-29, version 1.2*

Unfortunately it does not fork from iPhone to ipad, which is really the only reason I could ever see this being super useful. I sort of like it for my Mac, but I’ll take a keyboard any day. If an iPhone keyboard becomes a reality, we wouldn’t have to buy keyboards for our iPads. Apple probably sees it coming from a mile away and doesn’t want that yet.

### 1/5 — Garbage app

*2020-05-14*

Not usefull at all!

### 4/5 — Works as intended, minus RDP mouse support.

*2020-03-05*

Keyboard works perfectly, a bit of intrusive ads but they are expected with a free app. However, the Remote Desktop Mouse was incompatible with the trackpad. The mouse moved but was invisible on the RDP client. Other than that, works ok.

### 1/5 — Very bad

*2019-12-20*

This app is just a ads for the pro version which need money

### 5/5 — Excellent App! Does What It Says Very Well

*2017-10-21, version 1.1.1*

Do not be put off by negative reviewers trying to use the app in ways it could never work. The app requires that you install the free server software on your PC or Mac. It connects using WIFI, not bluetooth. 

This app is a million times more powerful than its iPhone version, and is a dream for anyone wanting to build a custom touch screen control schema for a game, or as an ancillary interface to pretty much any piece of software you can think of.

The ability to download pre-developed interfaces from the community within the app, and contribute your own designs to the same community is very nice!

I was worried for a while that this app was not going to be updated to work with IOS 11, but thankfully it now has. 

Very easy to use, intuitive, and needs no technical/programming skills. It just works! Download the free PC or MAC server, run it, set up a password, and then connect to the same network with your iPad.... It should find it very quickly. I have used this on my PC and set it up for my father on his MacBook Pro. It is very easy to get working, if you follow the instructions and use it how it was designed to be used. 

Awesome job to the developers and the community that supports it so well with their profiles.

Thanks to all of you!

### 5/5 — Great app works well

*2017-07-08*

Great app works well, use this all the time for my pc which is connected to my tv. Works as well as you can expect! Thank you so much for updating so this app will continue to work after ios11 update!

### 4/5 — Seems good, for now.

*2017-01-20, version 1.1*

1/20/2017 -
When are you going to update?????
If you start doing updates and don't ruin it, THEN I might buy the full version.
