No Bluetooth

How can an app like this not allow connection via Bluetooth.

It’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen.

There are so many instances where connecting via a local Wi-Fi doesn’t make sense.

Their own website says Bluetooth is available with Windows only. I’m using a Windows computer with iOS, but that seems not to be an option. To me that it’s a complete fail.


Save your time, go elsewhere.

Broken interface connection

I tried everything. Spent hours troubleshooting IPs, connections, firewalls, internet pings, network associations, WiFi hardware permissions, remote manager prompts, phone proxy, I even used Chat GPT to dig into my PC command prompts. Something within this app refuses to allow the pairing handshake to happen.

Exactly what I needed

I wanted to use my computer as a TV and I was searching for something that would work that I would not have to pay for. This was what worked for me. I’ve been using it in my dorm and I love it.

Broken

I threw everything that I had at it, including Astra on Max and it still didn’t work. It’s officially broken.

Volume buttons don’t work please fix it.

The app has some issues that need to be fixed. The volume buttons don’t work properly, and the connection is often slow even when both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. It would be great if the developers could improve the connection speed and fix the volume controls.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback, Aditya. We’re sorry the volume controls and connection speed haven’t been working as expected. Please email us at support@unifiedremote.com with your setup details, and we’ll be happy to take a look.
