### 5/5 — awesome

*2013-06-24, version 1.12*

there is just one word this app
awesome!!!!!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2013-06-23, version 1.12*

Works very well and is very well priced. Has more features than apps that cost 4 times as much as this. Will recommend to friends.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2013-06-22, version 1.12*

I love the picture in picture. You can stream a video from your pc while also browsing your pc remotely. It's works like 2 apps multitasking. I now prefer this app to splashtop which charges 10 bucks a year (I am grandfathered in so I don't pay their fee, still prefer this app.) This app is a tremendous value, get it before everyone realizes that and they start charging what this app is worth.

### 5/5 — 5 stars

*2013-04-20, version 1.12*

5 star app!! It's very easy to use, very good for teachers, home movie viewing, and much more. I would recommend this app to anyone

### 5/5 — Meilleur application

*2013-03-10*

Cette application est très facile à utiliser, très pratique aussi

### 5/5 — The one app I am using most

*2013-03-06, version 1.12*

There are three computers all different rooms and this app let me control all remotely without goto each computer.  File transfer and solve kids question how to using software etc.....   Great apps ... Thank you very much...

### 5/5 — Love it to stream video from desktop to my ipad

*2013-02-27, version 1.12*

I used to use vncstreamer for streaming videos to my ipad. But it needs format conversion, and usually I need to wait for some time. And there are certain video formats that are not supported by vncstreamer. 

But this app has eliminated all that work and time. I can play any videos that are supported by my desktop! No conversion required.  I especially like that they use a pop window to play videos on ipad, yet prevent it from showing on desktop monitor. And the Remote Desktop control is quite smooth too. (The experience is possible because of my fast network connection though ).

Meanwhile, you are able to stream flash videos open in our desktop browser, and it is way better than any other apps in the store that relays the flash content via a server..

Just hope in the future updates, they could support other Linux OS, and file transfer:).

### 5/5 — how can i use wol support

*2013-02-26, version 1.12*

i dont know how to use wol 
please show me

### 3/5 — Has a bug. - Tem com um bug.

*2013-02-24, version 1.11*

Has an annoying error that always happens. You're normal stirring on the iPad, then unexpectedly you can't click on anything. You can only move the mouse cursor, but does not work. And on the computer screen is as if you were dragging an object, but on the iPad it doesn't appear nor can you stop doing that. Can only stop when you will move directly into the computer.

Tem um erro chato que sempre acontece. Você tá mexendo normal no iPad, aí do nada você não consegue mais clicar em alguma coisa. Você só consegue mexer o cursor do mouse, mas não funciona o clique. E na tela do computador fica como se você tivesse arrastando um objeto, mas no iPad isso não aparece nem você consegue parar de fazer isso. Só consegue parar quando você vai mexer diretamente no computador.

### 5/5 — Surprised, but in a nice way.

*2013-02-15*

Used to use Splashtop to remotely control my computers. However since it was updated to Splashtop 2, I have to pay a monthly fee for accessing my computer over the internet which was free before. Tried AVSreamerHD today and found it is as good as Splashtop 2 as far as remote control is concerned, and to remotely access my computers over the internet, it is free. I am suprised, but in a nice way :)

### 5/5 — Stopped working after update

*2013-01-30, version 1.10*

It was one of best apps ever. I can access my computer even when i am on vacation. The speed is amazing.

### 5/5 — WOW!!

*2012-12-24*

I was coming in with low expectations, but the results have been impressive!!   I've only tested out with connecting to my laptop and Win 7, and I can play my AVI video files with no lag and no issues.  Nice!!

The other thing is using my XBMC.  It started it up and played anything from Navi-X with no issues.  The quality that I saw on my ipad 4 is only a reflection of the video streamed from Navi-X, but it's acceptable. I'm so impressed.

My next test will be to access my laptop when I'm away from home.  I love this app.  :-)

### 1/5 — Dont buy it

*2017-05-27, version 1.13*

No update until 3 years

### 1/5 — Great in concept - doesn't work in reality

*2014-01-07, version 1.13*

I purchased this product about a month ago and it worked right a couple times on the local network. Since then it has worked about 2% of the time. Constant frustration with the can't connect variety of errors. Wish there was some type of update or fix to the multitude of connection issues.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2013-06-24, version 1.12*

It is working but Can't watch any video on the iPad. I am able to control the computer via iPad and when i play a movie it shows on the computer but a blank and dark screen on the iPad. I opened Firefox via iPad and opened a flash video on that website and again it shows on the computer but not on the iPad.

### 1/5 — Won't connect

*2012-12-04, version 1.09*

Never had this issue with other streamers on my last ipad. This app just keeps saying route to server unavailable or something. I set up my pc correct its seen by the ipad but just won't connect.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work....

*2012-12-03, version 1.09*

I have a mac computer it wont sync or work... 
Doesn't work don't buy this app.... Just wasted my money....

### 1/5 — Very deceptive

*2012-10-04, version 1.05*

I thought this was a video player but it's really just a Remote Desktop program with some bells. I already have a great RDP client in Jump. This did remind me, though, until the functionality I want is available in IOS I'll use Jump to access my PC and get it there.

### 1/5 — Buy "Air Video" instead!

*2012-09-06*

Bought this. Got it working. Then it won't play .MP4 or a host of other files (yes, I installed Perian).

Gave up. Wasted my money.

Bought "Air Play" from the app store and it almost sets itself up and plays everything I throw at it.

### 1/5 — bad bad bad. dont work

*2012-05-11*

this would have to be one of the biggest rip offs on app store. does not work. it connects to of but there is no streaming whatsoever. every time you load a movie it comes up with a fault. FIX THE PROBLEM or give me my money back. DO NOT BUY until issues are resolved as it is a waste of money.

### 2/5 — Nice for some streaming, poor support

*2014-05-03, version 1.13*

Will not work with all software (key presses do not pass to some windowed mode games).  Have attempted to contact support more than once via their support e-mail and have received no response back (not even a "we received your request" e-mail).  May adjust rating if they ever respond to me (even if they cannot get it to work with my software).

### 3/5 — Almost there...macbook pro 2014 user to Ipad Pro 2nd gen

*2018-09-19, version 1.14*

Cant get the app to run on LTE only wifi. Only works when macbook pro is open if you close the mac it will not run despite double checking my energy saving settings.  The thing I love about it is the custom onscreen keyboard and the pop up menu please update, its so close to being awesome.

### 5/5 — Wonderful app

*2017-11-10, version 1.14*

I am able to access my laptop and desktop from my iPad without having to go to them. And it is free. I was very happy to see that the app was just updated to work with iOS 11. I was not able to use it for several weeks on my iPad. I thank the developers.

### 5/5 — Heroes 3

*2014-07-30*

U can play all your favourite games from PC on your apple device. I have to try this with wireless pad. Perfect!

### 5/5 — goodgood

*2014-01-29, version 1.13*

good

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2014-01-28*

Intuitive controls, simple to set up and looks pretty nice. There's no real noticeable lag and it automatically selects the correct resolution for you. 

Keep up the good work

### 5/5 — Feel so good

*2014-01-07, version 1.13*

Ya~ feel so good

### 5/5 — Best remote control app around

*2014-01-03*

I've been using this app for a few months now and very happy with it. I've tried a few others, some asking for monthly fees. This app has smooth streaming of desktop between my home and work. Keyboard and mouse layout can be customised on the ipad. Changing between multi monitors is easy with swipe gestures. Don't use video steaming much but it works as expected. Great app, keep it up.

### 5/5 — Tom ~ ICT teacher

*2013-11-09*

Couldn't believe how powerful and well programmed this app is, quick to set up. Then use your iPad as your pc, ok it's never going to be on the same level, speed and ease of use as your core i7 dell is. But it is amazing for portability and made for the user that would rather type on their iPads than with a laptop that weighs as much as their car. You have access to anything on your PC, no bugs found yet! Get this app, plus it creeps my partner out when she sees the laptop type by itself, take control of the webcam or and shut itself down (and everything else that you can do). For the cost, it's a bargain. Go get it!

### 5/5 — App review

*2013-08-28*

Good app works well

### 5/5 — Great app, can we directly access to movie folder like what airvideo does?

*2013-07-07*

Great app, can we directly access to movie folder like what airvideo does?

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2013-06-29*

This app is just amazing! Works perfectly and with very good framerate.
