## Newest reviews (17 of 52)

### 2/5 — Has potential,

*2020-03-07, version 1.2*

but it’s incredibly cryptic (at best) to first figure out. It performs as advertised via clunky interface, feels like developers stopped trying and/or need to hire legit UX/UI designer

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2019-11-03, version 1.2*

Junk. Can’t control Apple Music with iPhone 11 Pro Max. Latest iOS on MacBook Pro and iPhone.

### 1/5 — Catalina

*2019-10-22*

Doesn’t work with MacOS Catalina 10.15 Music

### 4/5 — Love it but...

*2019-10-15, version 1.2*

Needs an update work on Catalina with the Music app vs iTunes, which is no longer with us :-(

### 1/5 — Does not work with netflix

*2019-06-23, version 1.2*

Waste of money do not buy

### 4/5 — Missing mute

*2019-04-06*

If only this controller had a mute button it would be great

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2018-12-27, version 1.2*

Terrible app very inefficient

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2018-12-22*

Doesn’t work!

### 1/5 — Pointless app

*2018-12-18*

Same as previous review. Doesn’t pair. Not even a next button is there. What a waste. How does apple let something like this through!?

### 3/5 — Bad instructions, but finally worked

*2018-12-01, version 1.2*

I paired my phone with my laptop and couldn’t get the app to work.  Became so frustrated I went to delete the app from my phone and it finally opened and worked.  FYI to everyone, if you just tap on the app icon on an iPhone it opens a menu only.  But if you press down and hold firmly on the icon the volume control will open.  Note to developer:  please include this info in your instructions or fix the problem.

### 3/5 — Good for iTunes

*2018-11-19, version 1.2*

Works controlling iTunes. But does not work controlling in browser players like advertised. I’ve given the app all the proper permissions and made the changes in both chrome and safari, but it won’t control Netflix or YouTube. As far as I can tell, the only benefit to the pro version is the global volume control.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2018-10-17, version 1.1.2*

Not working anymore.

### 1/5 — Avoid!

*2018-09-13, version 1.1.2*

Doesn’t work. No customer support. A waste of your time.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2017-12-26*

Does not install and is not compatible with my phone. Furious that I upgraded to Pro and it cannot work.

### 3/5 — Works well but expensive

*2017-07-26*

Connects easily and no pop ups but cannot select files. Use primarily for VLC

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2017-06-18, version 1.1.2*

Would be nice if you can see the rest of the list of songs being selected. Hopefully future updates.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2017-06-04, version 1.1.2*

Purchased app to remote into Vox. Unless your sitting at you computer to pull up songs/playlists (defeats the purpose of "remote") ... worthless.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD

*2024-10-25*

Does not work with current iOS

### 1/5 — It DID work...

*2021-10-01, version 1.2*

This used to work great, but as soon as I upgraded to the new iPhone 13 mini it stopped working. It's a bummer as this was a GREAT way to control music for my patio setup.

### 1/5 — Does not work at present time

*2021-02-24, version 1.2*

The app no longer works on iOS 14.4

Apple needs to remove the paid function. This developer is taking $$ for non-functioning software.

### 1/5 — No widget?

*2021-01-27, version 1.2*

Where’s the widget for current iOS? Last update 2 years ago and doesn’t appear to work. Either dev needs to fix/update or Apple needs to pull from store to prevent DLC abuse - collecting $ for an app that doesn’t work as advertised.

### 1/5 — Have connected it once

*2020-12-28*

But whilst the phone widget sees the MacBook Air I matched it with, it cannot connect. Pretty useless.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2020-08-22, version 1.2*

Does everything except control iTunes (now Music App), which was the only thing I needed it for. It controls VLC just fine, just not the apple native music app. 

Tech support is nonexistent. 

Don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2020-04-25*

Rubbish does not work.

### 1/5 — Forgotten app, save your money

*2020-02-28*

Once great app left to languish, devs still haven’t updated to support the new Music app and stopped adding support for third party apps nearly two years ago. The only purpose it still serves is to adjust volume over wifi, not worth the PRO price at all

### 1/5 — A grade A turkey

*2020-02-01*

May be worth a go but buggy for me and in the end refused to work at all ie wouldn’t pair, wouldn’t start iTunes when paired etc and it doesn’t seem to be anything more than an app with mediocre functions anyway. The developers were out to lunch or 420ed wihen they made this cripe which isn’t even close to out of beta yet. I thought it was just me then saw all the other one stars. In summary 1.5 star cos it was going to work for a few minutes. I suggest very strongly Do not buy the Pro until they get the free working!

### 1/5 — Needs support for Catalina music app

*2019-12-06*

Apple got rid of iTunes in os Catalina and TodayRemote does not support the “new” music app.  Worked very well before Catalina.

### 5/5 — Works perfect!

*2018-12-21, version 1.2*

I like I can control all my airplay connected speakers through out house.  Installed with no issues

### 5/5 — Excellent Simple App

*2018-10-06*

I was very surprised at how simple this was to setup and that even in the free version it does exactly what it says it will do.
I would like future versions (paid versions) to include the ability to shut off your Mac screen.

### 5/5 — Shuffle/repeat buttons?

*2017-01-21, version 1.1.2*

It's a great and necessary handy app. (Much more useful and quicker than Apple's "Remote App.")
You could also add an option to display album artwork, or shuffle/repeat buttons. 👌

### 5/5 — Great with Spotify and VLC

*2016-10-16, version 1.1.2*

Serves its purpose well. You need the premium version though.
Worth the money and it is even possible to advance/go backwards inside of the same movie or sound, not just to be able to skip to the next/previous one. To do so just keep holding the prev/next button for few seconds.
I only wish it was also showing the progress, especially in VLC to see where in the movie we are.

### 5/5 — Does exactly what it says it will.

*2016-10-06, version 1.1.2*

Wow, this is so great! I'm now chillin' in bed blasting songs on my speakers, connected to my computer, from my phone! 

Great app!

### 5/5 — Worth setting up

*2016-06-12*

Takes a while to set up but works very well with excellent iPhone integration. Really good app

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-12-26*

This is a great app but the free version only let's you control iTunes. I took the risk and went for the upgrade and it works fine. One thing you could improve is the speed of the app and then maybe expand so we can control the computer off of our phone/iPads. Great app defo recommend!

### 5/5 — Thank you! Works perfect!

*2015-07-10, version 1.0*

I was chillin in my music room and I was wanting to control Mac system volume from Notification Center widget. And your app does exactly what I wanted it to. Perfectly. So convenient. Thank you for developing this!!!

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2015-02-20*

I explored several 'remote remotes' for the Mac. All I wanted was to control iTunes and this app does exactly that. It's easy to setup and has a nice UI.

### 5/5 — Great

*2015-02-01*

I'd like to see this widget expanded upon. 

- please add the ability to see volume level
