### 3/5 — One problem

*2018-12-19, version 2.811*

The iPad version mouse functionality doesn't work.

### 2/5 — Toujours déconnecté!!

*2018-11-23, version 2.811*

Toujours déconnecté!!

### 3/5 — Needs an absolute mode

*2018-04-11, version 2.800*

My iPad Pro is big enough that it would be better to have a mode where where you put your finger on the screen maps exactly to where you move the cursor rather than just having it be relative movement to where you first press down.

### 4/5 — Inertial Scrolling

*2017-12-27, version 2.800*

This app is pretty good. The latency is not that bad, but sometimes the touch tracking is laggy.
My biggest problem is the lack of inertial scrolling for the touchpad! When I scroll faster, it should move more than when scrolling slower. Same for mouse movements. Moving 2cm very quickly should move the mouse more than moving 2cm slowly. Apple’s trackpad does this and it would feel much more natural if this did as well. Do this and I will give 5 stars!

### 3/5 — Purchased

*2017-05-05, version 2.800*

I purchased this app some time ago and it no longer works...

### 4/5 — Works Great But Needs Improvements

*2017-01-17, version 2.800*

Got this app to replace my HTPC keyboard/touchpad as I wanted to reduce the number of remote control devices being used. This app works very well. Installation of server software and connection to the host machine was straightforward and quick. The keyboard and touchpad work without noticeable lag. There are enough setting options to tune the performance satisfactorily. The "sway mode" is a nice touch on the iPhone for emulating my air mouse--not as comfortable on the iPad Mini. 

I did run into an issue when I removed the USB receiver for my keyboard/touchpad. The Remote Mouse cursor shrunk down to a tiny view and would disappear about 3/4 of the way down the screen. The task bar icon would, however, register the presence of the cursor even though it was not visible on the screen. Frequent disconnects and failure to connect was also a problem with the Keyboard USB receiver removed. To avoid these problems I left the USB Receiver plugged in and everything works fine. 

Overall, one star deducted for the USB receiver problem, otherwise, with a little bit of improvement this would be a five star app for me.

### 3/5 — Good app but had to buy it twice

*2016-09-18, version 2.800*

Redid my ipad, and my purchase no longer reflected. I had to pay for it again. It works great, so I did it anyway, but beware.

### 4/5 — Works as expected

*2015-12-30, version 2.621*

App works well however can’t drag with mouse which would be a nice feature

### 4/5 — ... Almost there ...

*2015-12-18, version 2.621*

... fix the “landscape/portrait mode” bugs.

Most (all?) iPad users operate in “landscape” ... the “HD” flavor of this app should default to that mode. Not doing so suggests this app is no more than an “up-trick” from an iPhone app.

OTT, the app (once it stabilizes to my preferred landscape mode) seems to do a good job, and may very-well replace the Logitech trackpad I purchased a few years back.

... so hence, 4-stars.

### 3/5 — Great app with few flaws.

*2015-12-01, version 2.620*

One of the best but desperately needs drag and drop feature.  Connection isn't that stable which becomes frustrating.  Also I purchased the full version on the phone and iPad and I keep losing the keyboard arrow buttons on full version and have to reinstall the app.

### 5/5 — Wow !!!!!

*2015-10-02, version 2.620*

Super ! même avec Windows 10

### 3/5 — Works really good...sometimes

*2015-09-26, version 2.620*

When this works it's a charm. But it often stops, and on a fresh start of the PC we're using it on, if this is the first pointing program we use there is no arrow, no pointer. It still points, because things change shades as the missing arrow passes over things.

### 1/5 — Does not sync/connect

*2022-01-14, version 2.811*

Consistently fails to connect with the desktop for technically laptop and all items have been done but it won’t even scan the QR code. This has been the most disappointing program that I actually spent the full price for for the professional version and it will not work an absolute waste of money I highly suggest do not purchase

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-06-28, version 2.811*

The app does control the mouse on the screen, but after multiple tries, the keyboard will not work inside many of the Adobe programs I needed the app for.

### 1/5 — It does not work

*2017-12-30, version 2.800*

Sorry. This app is a dud. Too many variables to get it working.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2017-01-29, version 2.800*

Not doing what it says on the box.
Just purchased the 'in-store' App extra so I can control iTunes for one, paid .... nothing ?
It said downloading, nothing yet I've paid.

Not happy

Don't waste your money 😡😡😡😠

### 1/5 — Ripped off

*2016-06-16, version 2.800*

Paid for both unlocks for the app. Nothing unlocked. Restored purchases, restarted app, tried everything. Despite paying, the extra features are still locked. What's worse is that the app still allows you to re-purchase the ineffectual additions, despite the original purchase not working. Unacceptable.

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2016-03-05, version 2.700*

Avoid this app. It is practically unusable if you do not pay for the inapp purchases. Appsgonefree took me here and I was heavily disappointed. I do not know if this developer paid appsgonefree to have his app featured but it is terrible! What is worst, Appsgonefree has this app labeled with almost 5 stars. I feel cheated! This developer should be ashamed of himself.

### 1/5 — iPad = boooo

*2016-02-15, version 2.621*

When it's not lagging it's completely not working. You have to swipe around just so it can start "connecting" then within ten seconds it stops working again. So annoying.

### 1/5 — Travando

*2015-10-30, version 2.620*

Aplicativo trava muito, necessita de uma correção urgente,

### 1/5 — Absolute rubbish.

*2015-09-04, version 2.620*

Having to upgrading to just to use the keyboard is terrible and then you have to upgrade (again) on top of that just to use media controls!? And after you upgrade for the second time you're forced to sit through countless connection drops! Genuinely  a terrible product. :(

### 1/5 — Annoying rate me pop-up

*2015-08-24, version 2.620*

Works well sometimes. Every now and then looses connection. Need to fully close, then reconnect. After that, it asks to rate the app. Why am I paying for an app that always asks to rate. One star for all the hastle.

*2016-01-10, version 2.621*

Very useful and efficient.

### 5/5 — Great keyboard replacement

*2015-12-16, version 2.621*

I had previous issues with the app performance degrading after keeping it open, but these seem to have been fixed in the latest update.

This now functions as a useful keyboard replacement for me.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2015-10-27, version 2.620*

Great app,  really happy with now it has been updated!

### 5/5 — A "must have" for binge watchers

*2015-10-14, version 2.620*

I use this with a PC or Mac connected to my TV. Recent versions are way more stable. Looking forward to newer updates

### 5/5 — Works well

*2015-10-03, version 2.620*

This app works very well. No lags, smooth, really useful to pilot my Mac mini connected to my tv
