Full days spent for this apps installation but unfortunately server don’t shown anything positive. I bought it about $4.5. I need return my money. ### 1/5 — Set up not intuitive. *2018-08-18, version 2.0* Gave up. ### 1/5 — REMOTE MOUSE FOR MAC *2018-08-13, version 2.0* IT WOULD NOT EVEN INSTALL ON MY iMac. All it would do is give me the circle with the slash on it ❗️ No install. If this app is OS specific or certain Mac models specific, it should be stated as such in the description. ### 1/5 — Sorry.... *2018-08-12, version 2.0* But I don’t think you’ve got the bugs worked out. It’s connected to my Mac but keeps saying Connect to Mac. ### 1/5 — Проблемы! *2018-08-12* Все попытки заставить двигаться курсор оказались безуспешными! На новой системе курсор движется скачками. Точность управления приближается к нулю. Нужно работать над программой. ### 1/5 — Remote mouse *2018-08-10* Just not working ### 1/5 — Remote mouse *2018-08-06, version 2.0* Doesn’t work. Says doesn’t support iMac. Tried everything nothing ### 1/5 — Оценку возможно исправлю *2018-07-03* Зравствуйте, уважаемые разработчики! Почему для ipad приложение есть в app store, а для mac нужно качать dmg и открывать обходными путями? Добавьте приложение в mac app store ADD your app to mac app store, please ### 1/5 — Sure, it sounds like it would be great *2018-06-09, version 2.0* I downloaded the remote mouse app for my iPhone onto my iPhone, but then it says it wants you to download an app onto your Mac also, so I went to do that, but that app is not available in the Apple App Store, they want you to go to their own private website and download it, so I did that, however when I try to open the app after downloading and installing it, it says that it cannot open the app because it is either damaged or incomplete, so then I tried to send them an email on their website, and after writing the whole email and clicking send, it will not send, so now I have to re-write the email using my email program and send it to them and hope to get an answer. So maybe there will be a solution, but so far my advice to others would be to avoid what I am going through right now, and just do not download this app. Aexol, the company that makes this app, needs to get the app for Macs in the Apple store. Then we could trust the app more, and hopefully wouldn’t waste our time downloading and installing damaged software that doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Won’t Install *2018-03-11, version 1.2* My MacBook says the developer is unauthenticated and won’t let me install the app on my computer. ### 1/5 — Not worth 3.99 *2017-09-11, version 1.2* Totally did not work. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-01-12, version 4.0* 🙄🙄🙄🙄 ### 1/5 — No sirve *2020-08-13, version 4.0* Regresar mi dinero ### 1/5 — Total ripoff *2020-04-24, version 4.0* Doesn’t work, no instructions. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2019-10-16, version 4.0* The App I downloaded into my Mac to sync with the mobile App doesn’t launch.
