Ratings and reviews

It will crush your PC, set it into an endless reatqrt loop ....

I downloaded the app to my Samsung phone, then downloaded the required Java and app to my Dell computer. The apps apparently are not communicating. My phone, nor my computer, are showing up in either screens. Really disappointed.

This is so freakin' awesome!! The developer is super helpful and patient. It works with Linux beautifully. Definitely worth the upgrade to Pro to help support the developer. I cannot wait to go install this on my other machines. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
