Ratings and reviews

The free version works well but is limited to unusably low resolution. I decided immediately to buy the pro version to support the devs and get full resolution. But it's $40! I'm sorry, but that's outrageous pricing. I'm actually grumpy that I have to go out and find a different app after setting this one up because the app doesn't list that it has a $40 in app purchase, you only find out that the app is only usable after a $40 purchase after getting all of the way through the setup.

Update: It seems they have worked out the bugs, at least for my S21U. It works close to flawlessly now. My only small issue: I have to plug the phone into my PC after I reboot it in order to get wireless to work. Great product. Original review: Difficult to get the wireless working. When it does work, it will degrade the video from time to time. I paid the $40 lifetime updates price and I was pretty dissapointed until I messed with it enough to get it to work. I'd say it's 3 out of 5 stars.

Very useful app. I have been using the pro version for about two years now and it's had its ups and downs, but the dev is active and updates have been consistent. It's still kinda buggy though, and it seems to not want to play nice with all phones. It will also randomly disconnect if I get a text message. Still the best out there for screen mirroring.
