Ratings and reviews

I am not paying for an app until I see it fully working, period. After 30 minutes trying to get this app to work, and watch advert after advert to get it to trial free, I got it to work but the TV screen kept showing "Content Not Supported" on multiple videos I tried. FAILURE. Uninstalled.

The video casting itself works fine. The fact that the companion app for the TV keeps interrupting things at random to flash a QR code that sends you to the play store is infuriating. I uninstalled it completely from the TV and it's still flashing the QR code, too, which is more than a little annoying as well as suspicious. I used to use the Roku version for a while before having to switch to the one for Fire TVs and never had that problem. What gives?

Earlier, I recorded a practice song on video using my cell phone. I wanted to cast it up onto my Amazon fire stick, and it worked beautifully. And that was just the free version. The only glitch was probably my own fault by trying to bypass the ad. The song started, and while the video was playing, I interrupted it by playing around with the settings, then had to recast it. Outside of that, this is a great app.
