Ratings and reviews

Edit: Now working on my P3. Thanks! On the controls, I just feel like a directional pad would be more intuitive than the touchpad like setup currently used. Maybe add a remote mode that tried to mimic the physical remote. Works on OP5, but not my Pixel 3XL (can't find the TV despite being connected to the same Network). Controls are a bit odd when just trying to use it as a basic remote. Edit: You guys fixed the navigation. Updated to 5 stars

**update** About a month ago it stopped working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times. Now it will never connect to TV. It recognizes my TV from the list but it's just "stuck" on trying to connect. Sucks because this was a phenomenal app that worked flawlessly until it didn't. All other apps suck** So far, so good 👍🏼 Just downloaded the app with my new Hisense 75" Android TV 📺 and it works flawlessly! Menu, volume, channels, voice, keyboard, and off button. Thanks developer 🙏🏼

The app can connect to the tv but it really is quite poorly designed. It boasts that it can show videos and pictures from your phone on the tv but that's about it. It doesn't allow even sharing the web browser from your phone. Finding the videos to watch is a real pain since it only looks at one folder on your phone, (internal storage/dcim/camera). Watching videos from the phone on the tv is horrible since the video doesn't play concurrently on the phone but only on the tv and the controls other than stop, pause, and play dont seem to work (no ffwd or rwd). I really think there is room for improvement. The most frustrating aspect? After starting a video from my phone using this app, I often get this message that will not disappear from the tv screen: "A trusted device is connecting to your tv." Well, duh, why do I care? The message blocks the video being played and is extremely annoying (sometimes stopping the video and restarting it will solve it, but then you have to start the video from the beginning again). Basically the app appears to be marketing fluff so hisense can say they have an app like the other guys. In truth they have a worthless marketing gimmick to attract unknowning consumers. The app issues do not appear to be important to them as this review has been posted for over 6 months and no fix at all. I will modify my review when they fix it.
