Ratings and reviews

Way better than what its made out to be. Rivals the likes of DeX if you use One UI 8's native windowing + some sort of low latency wireless screencasting software. It allows for the likes of widgets to decorate your personal desktop and if you lower your dpi and enable tablet mode, it functions identically to a computer. Very good! 10/10. And one thing to note, unlike other desktoplike launchers which just mimic Windows, this works well with the rounded windows that One UI 8 windowing mode has.

awesome concept for a portable laptop style setup, I'd appreciate it even more if it can let us use desktop style keyboard shortcuts and have native volume and brightness controls like you see on Linux KDE or windows, also would be cool if it could force all apps to horizontal mode

Why is Hotstar not working in desktop mode? It automatically switches back to mobile launcher mode.
