Bugs still exist. Most of the time, I can’t even see half my presentation on an iPad or iPhone. I usually just have to click the arrow forward hoping for the best. The app is an integral part of our Sundays & Wednesdays, but it is pitiful lately. ### 3/5 — Needs to be updated *2018-08-19, version 1.2.3* I use media shout for my church and it comes in handy but it needs to have more features. One example is that it should allow me to be able to select bible verses or songs that are not already in my script in case it’s needed all of a sudden. ### 3/5 — Doesn’t upload the entire script *2018-08-09, version 1.2.3* It looked amazing until I clicked through and found out it doesn’t load the entire script. Maybe there will be a fix for this. ### 1/5 — Not working!! *2018-08-03, version 1.2.3* It’s asking for a password when I select my computer and we don’t have one set up! ### 2/5 — Not Reliable *2018-06-13, version 1.2.3* This app is great, when it works. It glitches often and will lock up. It needs a lot of work before it will be ready for use in a live worship service. ### 1/5 — This is useless for offline user. *2018-04-09, version 1.2.3* Comsummer with non wifi user should be able to use some kind of sharing connectivity such as via bluetooth pairing. ### 3/5 — Can’t select videos *2018-03-02, version 1.2.3* I’m unable to select one from a list of videos that I have uploaded. It will only let me go from the first to the second and so on. Please fix ### 1/5 — Kip *2017-10-18, version 1.2.3* Extremely unreliable. Would definitely not recommend. Problems since July update. Wifi connection errors and accompanying instability and freezing of app progression of cue movement. Wish mediashout would step in to encourage bug fixes. ### 1/5 — Updated app won't connect *2017-09-14, version 1.2.3* After the latest update I can't connect to MediaShout 5 with my phone or iPad. Nothing has changed on our network. ### 1/5 — Needs work *2016-12-18, version 1.1.2* Come on MediaShout, you've got to get this updated. ### 3/5 — Awesome remote *2016-05-22, version 1.1.2* It's easy to use, the thing I would suggest is to add bible verse panel in this app, but other than that I was very satisfied with it. ### 1/5 — Terribly buggy *2016-05-22, version 1.1.2* Terribly buggy. Does not work half the time. ### 1/5 — The remote app absolutely is terrible *2016-03-13, version 1.1.2* For the cost of this app, it's an absolute joke... I would advise fellow m.s. User to avoid paying anything for the remote app. It's a poorly written, add on, which in its own right should be included in the native app, but notwithstanding, stay away from it.... Seriously! Not worth the price of admission. ### 2/5 — Not working with Windows 10 *2016-01-10, version 1.1.2* Had sketchy response as most have said, and since I have upgraded to Windows 10 it doesn't ever see the computer remotely. ### 1/5 — Listen to the reviews *2016-01-06, version 1.1.2* Bought it despite the reviews bc I love the idea of this for youth group time. The app is in need of some severe fixes ### 1/5 — Horrible *2015-12-23, version 1.1.2* This app is horrible. It connects to computer but can't view any scripts at all. Will get a refund. ### 2/5 — It needs work *2015-11-10, version 1.1.2* The good: The app is good when connected and allows slide transition with negligible delay time. The bad: The app loses connection easily with no presenter movement on stage. It would be extremely helpful for the presenter to have split screen capability added for the new ios9 so that presentation notes can easily be accessed and slides transitions from the stage rather than have presentation pauses. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The app does not work *2025-02-15, version 1.2.3* I thought this app would help make things easier but I can’t even open the app. When I click on it, it closes immediately no matter what I do. I’m not sure If it’s a bug or what is going on. ### 1/5 — Update *2025-01-12, version 1.2.3* Could you please update this app? We spoke about a year ago and you said it was in the works. We really use this and need it updated ### 1/5 — Much like the computer software *2024-05-26, version 1.2.3* Difficult to work with, and crashes often. Over a decade of sub-par product. You can do better and should do better. ### 1/5 — The app does not work *2024-04-21* I thought this app would help make things easier but I can’t even open the app. When I click on it, it closes immediately no matter what I do. I’m sure If it’s a bug or what is going on. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2023-12-14, version 1.2.3* Crashes when I select control. Only lets me viewing the script. ### 1/5 — Fix it *2021-03-21, version 1.2.3* Can’t even load in the app🤦🏾‍♂️ ### 1/5 — Not good *2021-03-21, version 1.2.3* Doesn’t work won’t load any of the computers on it ### 1/5 — No support *2019-12-23, version 1.2.3* It’s been 2 years since last update. ### 1/5 — Cannot use *2019-05-12, version 1.2.3* Does not find my computer. ### 1/5 — What happened *2019-02-21, version 1.2.3* Used remote with MediaShout 5 bit after the switch to 6, it will not work. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Better than expected! *2013-01-29, version 1.0* I have to honestly admit I purchased this app with LOW expectations, but the promise of what it could do was way too tempting, so I thought I would give it a try. And guess what? So far it has delivered in what it said it could do! I used it in a worship service this week and it was a very handy and practical tool. MediaShout itself can be buggy at times, so I really feared this would accentuate its parent software's faults. The only bug I've found is that Imported PowerPoint slide shows cause it to freeze what's on the screen every now and then, forcing you to go to the desktop and kick things into gear again. So, my five star rating is more about the potential of this project and not a declaration that it's perfect. ;) I am so looking forward to the future of this app. I would love to be able to add notes and Bible passages on the fly. ### 5/5 — Awesome addition to media shout *2012-12-23, version 1.0* This is a great app. Works great! Followed the simple instructions on the website and was up and running in minutes. Excellent work. Worth the $$$ ### 5/5 — Great *2012-12-23, version 1.0* The app works like a charm. Great job guys. Now we just need support in the app to make changes to the presentations. Keep up the great work. ### 5/5 — Incredible *2012-12-20, version 1.0* I purchased this app yesterday after being notified that it was available. I followed the instructions that were with the build 290 update. Everything worked great! This will certainly open new possibilities with Media Shout, that MS was needing to do to stay in the game with the tablet culture. We can't wait to try it out in a live worship setting, but our staff sees great potential with this app. I'm not overly keen about paying for the app, but seeing as how it works it is well worth $3. I've been using MS since the 2.5 days and this is the best update yet. By: Tommy T ### 5/5 — Love It! *2012-12-20, version 1.0* Works great! I was hoping they would come up with an app. I'm very pleased. ### 5/5 — WORKS AWESOME *2012-12-19, version 1.0* At first I wasn't sure if I would like this, But after getting all the bugs out. It's awesome. Works way better then my remote does, and I can see what is on the screen without turning around. We have a stage monitor, but it doesn't show a powerpoint picture. (Only page 1, page 2...) this views perfectly. I LOVE IT! Keep playing with it, Make sure you check all the help through Media Shout. ### 4/5 — Mediashout 7 update *2025-04-27* We need mediashout update for V.7 ### 4/5 — Great app but missing essential functionality *2017-09-23* I would like to double tap on the slides and change them ### 4/5 — App *2014-11-26, version 1.1.2* I have been using the app for a while, but I would like it to be able to slide to where you can edit text in a slide, but other than that I have loved the app. ### 4/5 — Worked great UNTIL IOS7 *2013-12-31, version 1.0* This app worked great until the new iOS7 update came out and now I can't even put in my password because it won't let me. If you have the iOS7 update then don't bother wasting your money because the app won't work but if u dot have it then buy it because it will work great. PLEASE UPDATE AND MAKE IT IOS7 compatible!!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
