Se déconnecte du reseau constamment... devenu inutilisable. désarmant. ### 1/5 — Keine Apple TV Unterstützung *2022-10-16* Angeblich soll die App den Apple TV Unterstützen, was es nicht macht. 1.19€ rausgeschmissen. In der App für 1.19€ erfährt man dann auch noch das man 4.49€ für die Pro Version blechen soll. Das ist Bauerfängerei. Also Aufpassen!!!! ### 1/5 — Kein VoiceOver für mich nicht bedienen Bar! *2022-07-24* Kein VoiceOver verfügbar ### 1/5 — Garbage *2022-07-17, version 4.3* Doesn't work. ### 1/5 — Not worth the purchase *2022-03-18, version 4.3* Can’t access anything without purchasing an additional helper which it doesn’t state until after you’ve made the purchase. Then you need to purchase the upgrade remote. Cheaper to buy new remote. ### 1/5 — Avete anche il coraggio di farvi pagare?!! *2022-03-17, version 4.3* Non funziona in nessun modo. Non ho firewall attivo, iMac e iPhone sulla stessa rete wi-fi (mi pare ovvio) ho seguito passo passo tutte le istruzioni e i passaggi ma nulla non si connette. Una cosa così banale e semplice che non funziona. Assurdo. Siete ridicoli a farvi pure pagare!! ### 1/5 — No sirve *2022-02-01, version 4.3* No sirve, no encuentra mis dispositivos, es un fraude, quiero mi dinero de regreso ### 1/5 — 2021 не видит ни одного устройства *2021-11-05* 5 лет назад последнее обновление — посмотрел только после покупки за 99₽ , хорошая тема ничего не работает, а деньги собираете с не внимательных. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nice *2023-04-26, version 5.0.1* Setup in a minute. Don't forget to install the app from their web on your Mac as well. Dear developer, it's spelled 'versatile' ;) ### 5/5 — Keeps crashing after update *2022-12-29, version 5.0* Version 5 keeps crashing under ipadOs 16.1. However, developer quickly released fix and version 5.0.1 is coming soon. It was a pleasure to speak with him and he provided me a redeem code for pro version. Recommended app. ### 5/5 — Pro version well worth it *2022-07-10, version 4.3* If you’re on your couch and don’t want to use keyboard and mouse, this baby’s the best. And who doesn’t have their phone on them? ### 5/5 — Nice app *2021-07-31* Работает и apple tv и с mac и с iphone. Не знаю, как ребята ниже не справились с этой задачей. Я пользуюсь уже 10 лет и собираюсь дальше. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2020-07-28, version 4.3* There a lot of apps that try to do this, but this app actually works and is very easy to use. Well worth the $5. ### 5/5 — Très bien *2019-11-03* Fonctionne parfaitement ### 5/5 — Needs updating IOS13.2 issues. *2019-10-06, version 4.3* This is worked really well until IOS13.2. Now if I tip phone to landscape or hit settings button the app quits. So I can’t use phone as a trackpad which is annoying. Please update to fix bugs. ### 5/5 — Good remote for your Mac *2019-05-04* Good app to control your mac from your ios device. Can improve in some esthetic details and controls on specific applications (VLC). ### 5/5 — Cool idea *2019-04-04, version 4.3* Cool idea for an app- requires a software program on the Mac you use it with. But it’s clever and cool- definitely worth trying out. ### 5/5 — Good app, has minor glitches *2018-12-27, version 4.3* I upgraded to pro within the app, it has some glitches like i can only control my computer volume only when i open chrome or an app it can control from the dashboard, volume buttons used to work well to control the volume so no need to use app interface, that seems not to work in this update, i used to have an issue where it would loose connection/not find my mac, thats good now... i bought app when came out for a 1$ not the price it is today hence why im ok with the issues and quite satisfied. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
