Ratings and reviews

EDIT: I love this app, however, there are no current updates and no support to speak of. I know coding can be a full-time job so I understand not being able to devote your life to maintaining this app but it would be nice to have bugs worked out. It intermittently crashes or loses connectivity to my server when my phone screen times out. The app needs to be up to date with the newer phones as well as the store. Will put back to 5 star when this happens. Great app otherwise!

I have used this app for over 2 years now. It has had some growing pains over that time but I love it. I use my computer to watch tv in my living room on a big screen and browse the web every day. I love grabing my phone to log in and control everthing in my chair I would do at the desk. The only thing I wish could be added is the ability to use more than one phone at a time. Sitting in the living room I would have to pass my phone around or use a wirerless keyboard for other to access the tv.

The server program looks incredibly outdated. The app looks like an ancient version of android with a poor appearance. Installing the server program installed drivers (Vectir Virtual HID) that were impossible to delete no matter what happened. Uninstalling Vectir does not remove the garbage files leftover from across the computer and does not remove the driver. Overall, functionality of the app is garbage compared to other apps that do similar with much better quality and speed.
