Reflector Student is a helpful companion app for anyone using Reflector 4 desktop screen mirroring software. It provides two key benefits: 1. It allows students to wirelessly connect iPad and iPhone devices to a teacher’s Reflector 4 software in schools with limited or restricted networks. Schools often have network setups that prevent screen mirroring. Reflector Student helps fix that problem. 2. Once connected, Reflector Student shows a live view of the other classroom devices that are mirrored to Reflector 4. This makes viewing shared content easier for students. How it works Using clever Bluetooth* and network auto-detection methods, Quick Connect® and QR codes, Reflector Student easily connects student iOS and iPadOS devices to teacher computers that are running Reflector 4. Once you’ve done this, open Control Center on your device, tap “Screen Mirroring” and you’ll see your Reflector-enabled computer as a mirroring destination. Once paired to a teacher computer, Reflector Student remembers the pairing to save valuable classroom time and prevent distractions in the future. *Bluetooth available on supported computers. Important! Use of Reflector Student REQUIRES the Reflector 4 application running on a computer. This is what the app connects to: http://www.airsquirrels.com/reflector/download/ View Connected Screens Reflector Student allows any paired student devices to view all of the screens connected to Reflector 4, including both teacher and student devices. Students no longer have to worry about where they’re positioned in the classroom to see shared content. It’s all shown right in the Reflector Student app. Easy Connections Some schools use separate networks for student and teacher devices, which can prevent screen mirroring between those devices. Reflector Student allows students to connect to Reflector 4 in almost any environment. Use auto-detection (Bluetooth and network), Quick Connect or QR codes to pair to Reflector 4. Once paired, the destination will appear in the iOS/iPadOS device’s AirPlay list. Saved Destinations Previous destinations are remembered for easy connections at any time in the future. Simply open Reflector Student and the device will pair to Reflector 4 again automatically. There’s no need to go through the pairing process again if you’re connecting to the same destination. Remember! Use of Reflector Student REQUIRES the Reflector 4 application running on a computer. ## Key features - Wireless screen mirroring for iOS devices - Connects to Reflector 4 desktop software - Works on restricted school networks - Live view of all mirrored screens - Easy connection via Bluetooth, QR codes, or auto-detection - Remembers previous connections ## Recent user reviews (10 of 71) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/reflector-student/id1002083080/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Didn’t work for me *2023-11-30, version 4.0.0* Wanted to stream home media. Followed instructions to connect app to Reflector 4 on laptop. Tried using the quick connect code from Reflector 4 app. Failed repeatedly. Tried using instant connect on same Wi-Fi network. Failed repeatedly. Tried using iPad’s camera to connect with QR code. Failed repeatedly. Disgusted, I removed the app from my iPad AND my laptop. Waste of time. Not ready for Prime Time. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2023-06-24* I'm using reflector 2. It worked for me back in the day before they added all these different apps. Guess this is their way of forcing us to upgrade? Not getting my money. ### 1/5 — 连接不了 *2021-12-26* 连接不了 ### 1/5 — Useless *2021-10-08* Wont connect to reflector 4 on my pc ### 1/5 — it is not working on 13 iOS version. *2020-08-03, version 3.0.1* 7 iphone, 13.2.3 iOS version, reflector 2 on the PC. In the “Screen mirroring” list there are no my PC name, in the desktop app connected devices are not being displayed too!! help please with this issue ### 1/5 — Keep the money...I’m just disgusted and over it *2020-05-07, version 3.0.1* So this developers series of apps promise a lot of functionality that I did not see available and in the most promising and first choice I was forced to pay 7 or 8 bucks for the mobile app to stream from my MacBook to iPhone. It did a sub par job at that! Definitely not functional for real world applications. Next I decided to try their other options of app pairs and found the setup to be so convoluted and annoying that I decided it wasn’t worth going through for something that most likely won’t satisfy my needs. You should be embarrassed to even provide such nonsense to the public, especially at a premium rate. I guess this is why Apple puts out crap development software....it seems to be a direct reflection of the general Apple dev community. I miss my Android. NO ONE SHOULD WASTE THEIR VALUABLE TIME AND MONEY ON THIS TRASH!!! ### 5/5 — Doesn‘t work *2020-04-13* My iPad Pro 2019 can‘t connect to my MacBook Air 2013 (Catalina 15.3). Very sad. ### 5/5 — İt is very Super good *2020-03-31, version 3.0.1* İnanılmaz güzel bence herkes almalı.
