Ratings and reviews

PROS: #1 It does what it says. It's a video board which can also be a sound board. #2 It has lots of options and some customization. #3 The developer is extremely responsive and fixes bugs quickly. CONS: #1 The menu system is very dense and can be hard to navigate. #2 It can be hard to understand how to use all the options. FINAL THOUGHTS: I recommended the app. It seems to have a lot of options and hidden features. Just realize that you will have to be patient while learning the user interface.

very basic, still only 12 buttons available

Works so far on my Note 8.
