Ratings and reviews

Certainly, I like this app. I'm using the Wiko u307as with Android 9. The following issues are current: file transfer is occurring only in one direction from the laptop to the mobile. The volume on the multimedia control does not work. In addition, the play button does not allow the user to resume when the video is paused. Let's see about fixing those issues and then there will be five stars. Thank you

Impressed with the performance. Feature Request: it will be great if you introduce a feature that will allow mobile client to trun on hotspot on the laptop and connect to it automatically without touching the laptop. And allow Computer client to crate and connect to mobile hotspot similarly. Also, please add an option to stop zorin connect from mobile. Exiting the app don't stop the app. Sometimes I don't want it to connect to the PC. Thanks 😊

The phone app suddenly stopped to recognize the connection through the phone's hotspot as being on the same network about two weeks ago. Now it requires phone WiFi to be on, which is obviously impossible if the phone is to serve as the hotspot. I think it happened in the latest Motorola forced update, rendering the app effectively unusable. (I'm giving 1 star rating so Senpai notices me, the app was awesome while it worked for me!)
