Ratings and reviews

I was very excited to get this app set up with my PC, but I discovered that there is a big feature missing. I was hoping to be able to use my phone to continue talking on Teams, Zoom, Discord, etc. when I step away from my PC. Unfortunately, the app doesn't recognize any of my Bluetooth headsets as an input device, only as an output, so I'm unable to speak through the app via Bluetooth as I'd hoped.

Fantastic replacement for the VBAN Receptor, the back button not exiting is a minor inconvenience at best. Has the same latency as my Rode NT-USB, so I'd say it's pretty dang good. A bit steep of a price, but for me it's worth it. (Can't add a response to the Dev below, editing instead) Usually the back button "minimizes* the application when on the main screen. After using it more it doesn't make a difference at all.

For those with issues, see if my workaround works for you! I was having problems with my lav mic plugged in crashing the app. A workaround for me has been to leave mic unplugged, go to menu, then log, then plug in the external mic. I can then go back to the main screen and it works with no further issues! Great work on all of these apps! They are awesome 👌
