### 5/5 — Saved a wedding

*2026-08-25, version 2026.40*

I used this app to control the music on my Mac at a wedding after my Bluetooth receiver stopped working. This app worked perfectly!

### 2/5 — Not a great app

*2026-08-24, version 2026.40*

You pair it up and it will go off line and it’s hard to get it on line again. Not work the effort, they need to make it better. If screen goes off it looses contact and it’s hard to get it going again

### 5/5 — Eccellente

*2026-08-23, version 2026.40*

Eccezionale

### 5/5 — Works well!

*2026-08-22, version 2026.40*

It’s great! I use my laptop with my TV for content and being able to control my laptop for the couch is great! They release frequent updates which keeps me hopeful for continued functionality. As long as they continue supporting it, I think it’s a great buy.

### 5/5 — Remotes

*2026-08-22, version 2026.39*

This is without doubt a lifesaver when you can’t find your remotes for your devices just use and set up an absolute no brainer brilliant.

### 1/5 — Hi

*2026-08-21, version 2021.1*

I can’t use iPhone on iPad

### 5/5 — Sofa Surfing

*2026-08-21, version 2026.39*

This app works so great you’d think it was a native apple app. My setup is MacBook connected to large TV. I can sit back and use it as my ultimate media machine. Connecting the MacBook via Ethernet cable massively improved the smoothness of cursor movements, highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Works

*2026-08-21, version 2026.39*

It prompts you to pay for it but you don’t have to, it works great so far as just the remote on my laptop for my Apple TV.

### 4/5 — Good

*2026-08-19, version 2026.39*

It works pretty well

### 1/5 — Not free!

*2026-08-19, version 2026.39*

They only give a part of functioning buttons. To use volume etc, you have to pay continuously. Buy a new one from Apple. Way cheaper in the long run or YouTube how to clean your old one.
