### 3/5 — couldn't download server application

*2022-11-25, version 1.5.0*

couldn't download server application

### 1/5 — Baddddd

*2022-06-09*

Server download link not valid

### 1/5 — your website is broken

*2020-12-31*

also doesn't support win10 apparently lol

### 1/5 — Wouldn't connect

*2018-06-24*

As above

### 1/5 — Hmmmm.

*2016-12-10, version 1.3*

It DOES work, but the sound is VERY behind.

### 5/5 — Superb utility

*2016-12-03*

Very impressed with the app. It works perfectly. The app also has remote mouse settings. The sounds quality is good. I don't understand why this app is not that popular yet.

### 4/5 — A good free alternative

*2016-10-08*

I was actually surprised that the app works. It's not perfect, you do get some distortion in sound occasionally. But for the price of free for both the app and server (working on windows 10) it worth saving $7.00 compared to similar apps!

### 1/5 — It doesn't work on my phone can I get a refund please.

*2016-05-30, version 1.2.4*

I get a black screen that turns off and goes to the home screen again. iPhone 6 Plus iOS 9.3.1

### 5/5 — Does exactly what it claims

*2012-04-21, version 1.2.4*

Connects to daemon on the PC, plays back whatever the daemon captures.

You will get far better results if your soundcard has a digital mix capture (most laptop ones don't); if the capture is analogue it will pick up the PC's ground noise, and noise from the DA/AD conversion.

There exist virtual soundcard programs that capture the audio digitally; it would be nice if this package included something like that (though then it would need Administrator privileges to install*).

* speaking of which, the PC application demands administrator privileges to install, whereas it only needs Power User, and could easily be made into a portable app. Lazy packaging.

If you're using this for proofing audio to be played back on iOS, bear in mind that its output goes through iOS's equaliser, and (if you're capturing analogue on the PC) your soundcard's equaliser too; both need to be turned off if you want fidelity.

### 1/5 — Unable to get it working

*2012-04-18, version 1.2.4*

It's all in the title ...
