Ratings and reviews

App is completely inoperable. Worked only once before I could no longer connect to my PC. Any attempt to connect now results in a non-descript error message reading "Failed connecting to "PC Name", server unsupported." All attempts to diagnose and rectify the issue have failed. I've tried updating software on both my phone and computer, tried forgetting and reconnecting devices and uninstalling the app from my phone. Really wanted to like this app as I like keeping an eye on my system's status.

A mixed bag for me. Mostly doesnt connect even aftet significant firewall changes / turning the firewall off. The server needs to be turned off and on again when windows starts or it wont work. QR connection method sometimes does nothing, manual is the same. When it does work i love it but it never keeps working for me. Game streaming doesnt work at all.

Works, is definitely a nice piece of software, glad it exist. I'm using out of Nvidia shield TV and while I can be a bit finicky and there are certainly minor issues such as the mouse cursor not disappearing on the screen when I use a controller. (It does when I use steam link) also streaming over a 60 MB Wi-Fi connection and the color and textures will appear off or grainy at times. Looking forward to future improvements I think it has a lot of potential if AMD continues to develop/optimize it
