I wouldn’t recommend I has some problems with the app. All because my phone was connected to the same network to the tv that doesn’t really make sense.

Response from developer

Hi, We're sorry to hear that. 😞 If your phone and TV are connected to the same Wi-Fi network, the app should normally be able to connect. Please let us know what issue you experienced, and we'll be happy to help however we can. ✨ Lily from osApps

Finally
