Ratings and reviews

It is a very easy to use app, and one of the few that I have found that work with the Insigina Fire TV. The only issue that I have ran I to is that if a video was record in landscape mode, (meaning the phone was turned sideways during the recording) the TV does not auto rotate the image on the tv to landscape. This is would be a great enhancement (even it were only available in the premium version) as many people turn their phones sideways when recording to get a wide view of the area.

Decent app, but it regularly screws up the image and sound syncing which is irritating. You have to skip the movie forward or back to get them in sync again, but it doesn't always work. Also, if you pause the movie and then play again, it will play for anywhere between a few seconds and a couple of minutes before it shuts down and you need to restart it. Lastly... The ads. Jesus are they invasive. So much so that even with my phone locked and on silent the ad will switch on my phones sound and blast out the ad through the speaker. Every minute or two the ads will pop up, directing you away from whatever you're doing and taking you back into Allcast! Hugely annoying.

This app used to be amazing. I upgraded to premium, and it was 100% worth it. I've had it so long, I can't bring myself to rate below 3 stars, that's how rock solid it was for so long. Now, it never plays ANYTHING on my Chromecast or Xbox. The listed formats do not play, regardless of file size. It never works anymore. Hoping next update fixes, because I used to use this daily. Note 8 running latest Android Oreo.
