Stupid app

Whenever you are trying to connect this app to TV it directs you to a different app. Waste of time.

time waiste

just load of ads watching to not be able to cast anything

Worthless app!

Can’t find a way to cast programming from my phone to my Sony Smart TV as desired. No useful tutorials on point. Tried to get a refund within minutes of my purchase but was told no refund was available. A total waste of $6.99.

mauvais

Mauvaise qualité et payer pour le mode mirroir avec une latence, mauvais

Zero stars

What a piece of trash. I downloaded this to cast at an Airbnb, so you can bet I’m not paying for premium. At the free tier you can’t cast from apps and the built-in player pushes ads every couple of minutes, nags constantly. I can’t believe Sony would get behind this.

Scam

good

works as intended, and the stream i pretty good, but if u watch an ad and the loading fails, u then have to watch ANOTHER and hope it works the 2nd try. imo its bad practice to punish us with another ad if your service fails

More than scammy

I rarely ever write bad reviews. Most of my reviews are bc I like the product or at least the idea, even if a product is not refined, yet. However, I do not like to be scammed. I do not like dishonesty. The sole purpose of this app is that you as the gullible customer press the “Buy” button. This app has not trial or freemium option. Once you open it for the first time you immediately get presented with an offer that you fell you cannot miss out: all the options for a third of the price of about $20. In this moment, you do not even know what these options are. I clicked buy, $7 bucks, bc who does not want to safe 60%. Once you look at the in-app options, they are all nano-features that normally would be required to make the app work for its intended purpose of mirroring your screen. This is not the question of a Basic vs Pro version. You need ALL of these in-app purchases to make the app useful. Ok fine, I got tricked into a purchase without actually trying it out.

But then at least the app works, right? Wrong! Even after buying the bundle you are welcomed with a cluttered user interface that looks like a middle schooler on a summer camp threw it together that is nothing but intuitive - just to be redirected to more apps to purchase just to make it work.

The whole point of this app is to mirror something from your device to a TV, in this case a Sony. A very simple product definition. There is no need for micro in-app purchases - either you can mirror your screen, or you cannot. Period! No user wants a products that only sometimes works under undefined conditions.

And even in this one simple function the app fails. This app exists in a gazillion confusing (on purpose I allege) versions, this particular one is advertised for Sony, but it does not even function here. Perhaps Sony uses more than one format (in my case Miracast), perhaps the app does not work at all. In any case, it nowhere tells you in the app description that it only works for SOME Sony TV and under WHICH conditions. Again, it misleads the user into buying in the assumption that the app works on ALL Sony TV. Wouldn’t you assume the same if you bought something specially advertised for “Sony”?

I am a technologist, my background is productizing technology ideas and deliver solutions. I live and breath software (and hardware). I am not just a disgruntled customer who cannot figure out how a complex app works, but I seriously feel scammed. This is messed up, and even worse - you cannot get a refund.

Disgusting ransoming

Why are you trying to collect fees each time I try to cast from my iPad? This is my equipment and my cable service. Who let you hold my service for ransom?

Thank you for taking time to review our app. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please note that no purchases are required to cast videos to your receiver device. The purchases only provide you with additional features like an ad-blocker and alike. As a company we need to have a source of income to be able to still develop and work on the app. That is why we offer features like the ad-blocker or the playbar for sale. All of our services and apps are one-time purchases only, so there are no subscription models involved. To take advantage of our support, please contact us via e-mail (info@video-tv-cast.com). We'd love to hear from you.

Connection Error

My casting was having connection errors, so I decided to pay for the premium version. Still has connection errors when trying to cast. Don’t waste your time or money on this. Get a new tv if this app is required to cast on your tv.

Horrible

Don’t get this app it’s trash.

Lixo total

Até pra respirar tem que pagar nesse app, os recursos não funcionam direito, nem vem com essa de “as a company we need same way to earn money”

A forma de monetizar é tão piada que não me surpreende o fato de ninguém usar ele, fracasso total
