*2024-11-29, version 5.6*

Full of garbage ads figured if you bought the product they wouldn’t charge but I was wrong. Wish I never wasted my money.

### 1/5 — It’s relentless with the pop up forced upgrade

*2024-11-26, version 5.6*

I don’t want the upgrade with the added price bump. App won’t stop asking me non stop. I’ll have to resort to using something else.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2024-11-14, version 5.6*

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2024-11-07, version 5.6*

Bought the premium lifetime membership and apparently im a vip member. I have been robbed. It lags and freezes, has no sound and is extremely unstable. Im streaming from an iPhone 16 pro max.

### 1/5 — I should have bought an Apple TV.

*2024-10-07, version 5.5*

We have to pay to screen mirror?!? Come on, I get you’re a business but other tv don’t charge.

They will charge you an annually fee but it only allows you to chrome cast certain items then it will ask you to pay more to cast movies

### 1/5 — Does not work would give no stars

Don’t do it. There is no email to receive a refund

*2024-08-19, version 5.5*

Waste of my time and money.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — A full on Scam

*2026-08-17, version 6.2.3*

Even if do the “three day free trial” it will still charge you if you cancel it before the deadline.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2026-06-02, version 5.8*

How it shows 4.1 starts is beyond me. Paid for a year. Not once has it worked well. It lags and disconnects even though it says it’s still casting. Do not waste your time or money on this.

### 1/5 — Disconnect every 10 mins

*2026-06-01, version 5.8*

I purchased the premium version, but the screen mirroring feature only works for about 10 mins before it disconnects automatically. I tried multiple times and it keeps happening. This has been a frustrating experience and feels like waste of money. Anyone can help fix it?

### 1/5 — This is a Scam

*2026-04-28, version 5.8*

I tried to download this app and it asked for PayPal details then took $40 and I still only get the free version, I had to ask PayPal to block them because it was going to keep taking money

### 1/5 — Made me pay and didn’t work.

*2026-04-11, version 5.8*

Made me pay for a subscription and then didn’t support my tv type.

### 1/5 — Paid for Lifetime

*2026-03-16, version 5.8*

I paid for lifetime one time payment. I am having issues with the casting so I deleted it and reinstalled and now it wants me to pay again. 
What’s going on?  
Why would I have to repay?  
The app glitches and I am trying g to fix it.

### 1/5 — don’t bother

*2026-03-08, version 5.8*

i only signed up for the screen casting but every few minutes the casting would stop and i would have to reconnect to my device and start casting again. please save yourself the agony and just don’t

### 1/5 — Unable to screen share

*2025-08-13, version 5.7*

I got this app so I could share my screen from my iPad / iPhone to a Chiq TV (Google) whilst running the HomeCourt basketball training app in our backyard. Unfortunately it only allows you to share specific things like photos, videos, YouTube, Google drive or OneBox files. Definitely not fit for purpose. There is an option to screen mirror but it requires another purchase and another connected app. 

Unable to cancel my subscription so far - it’s not in my Apple subscriptions list and the app just keeps taking me back to there when I try to “manage subscription” 😩

### 1/5 — 断开链接

*2025-06-02, version 5.7*

刚看三分钟就断开链接，根本不能退后台干别的事情，垃圾

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work!

*2025-05-07, version 5.6*

Terrible, doesn’t work! Do not purchase. It is a waste of money and time!

### 5/5 — Scam ads

*2022-11-18*

******DO NOT DOWNLOAD. PHISHING / FRAUD SCAM. NOT MADE BY GOOGLE************++

I download the app to be greeted with a page to “activate my account” which brought me to a page where it said I needed to enter my credit card info. So I did thinking it was google. I then find out I subscribed and gave my credit card info to a shady business who has already charged me twice for no apparent reason. This is giving me great stress.

### 5/5 — Better then expected

*2022-10-15*

Thank you. For creating such device.  At first I didn’t know what I was doing it took an hour to complete whole setup, that was my doing. But when I got it running on my projector the family had a great time with the experience. It was like bringing the drive in theater to your backyard. Of course I only watched videos. Overall great product, the one time subscription is a few dollars more then monthly subscription it only makes sense to do it. Keep at it, your dreams are all becoming reality.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your 5-star review! We will share this with the store team to let them know to keep up the amazing work.
