### 4/5 — Fonctionne bien ! (2026)

*2026-08-02*

La seule appli qui fonctionne sur Winamp 2.26, version ok sous Windows 10, avec tous les plugins qui vont bien…

Ça fait le taf (accès distant à Winamp), quelques petits bugs, m quelques interfaces a retravailler un peu mais on apprend bien à s’en servir et à pouvoir contrôler Winamp à distance ! MERCI !!

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2019-12-07, version 2.1.1*

Excelente trabaja muy bien se puede abrir remotamente el winamp/Windows media igual se puede escoger las carpetas con música el volumen trabaja rápido en sí muy buena app,,,en iOS 9 se cierra y ya no se puede abrir

### 3/5 — Oh dear why would you Devs?

*2019-08-09, version 2.1.1*

You had the look perfect. Why would you go and change to that horrible green from black/blue. At least give us the option of skin we like. I get the ad thing at the bottom. You guys need to make money buy why ruin the look. Next Dev meeting please add skin option to the agenda...please 

Any one reading this for review. App is really 4 star. Yes it has bugs like sometimes you have to reinstall the pc software to get it to work again but overall it is a good app if you have your pc, media Center attached to your TV and want easy play options. I tried a few and settled on this. I DID love the look of it but they just changed that. 

Overall worth the download. I will give it 5 stars once they let me chose skin and they repair that bug (which they may have done in this update. I have just not checked as I was shocked with the new colour.)

### 5/5 — Flawless

*2019-03-21, version 2.0*

Few apps are as perfectly functional and I’m not one for hyperbole. Controls are snappy and the app stable. I’ve been using it to cycle through songs in a Windows Media Player playlist and no issues.

### 5/5 — Top

*2019-01-09*

Funktioniert einwandfrei!! Einfach die Hostdatei downloaden, starten und schon kann’s losgehen. Top!! 
Besser als Wmote App!

### 5/5 — This App Is Great!!!!!!!!!

*2018-06-22, version 2.0*

Have been looking for iPhone app to control my media library on a Windows 7 computer and this is it. It works great, intuitive, functional, I can’t find any faults. I love it, I wish my Cambridge Connect app functioned half as good as this does. If your looking for a remote control app for media player your search is over!

### 1/5 — Doesn't work well

*2016-04-26, version 1.5*

Started off fine, but lost connectivity and couldn't find host computer. Tried everything to get it working again including reinstating but no luck

### 5/5 — Muy buena

*2014-12-12, version 1.5*

Esta super, cumple con lo que dice

### 1/5 — Mac not Suported

*2014-12-11, version 1.5*

The server application that is required is for PCs not Macs. $1.99 for nothing.

### 4/5 — Really Great Application!!

*2014-11-22, version 1.5*

This is the first and only remote app I've ever downloaded, so I don't really have much to compare it to...but after reading reviews of other WMP remotes, this app is awesome!  It's very simple...download app, then download software to install on your PC and you're in business.  The only thing it's missing, in my book, is a button that rewinds what you're watching like 10 seconds...something similar to what DirecTv or Dish have on their remotes.  If it had the rewind function, 5 stars all the way!  This app really is AWESOME!!
