Ratings and reviews

wonderful tool, has been great for working with. i hope to see continued updates. bit of feedback, when using the screen mirroring: 1. the extra contols (show when you hit back) disappear too quickly 2. add tooltip text (below/longpress). i still can't figure out what some of them do, like the moon icon. 3. add native KB button. please flesh out file explorer. i need to send/edit files at arbitrary paths for modding, let us pick/favorite/automate. add "open on THIS device" (local edit) thx

Seems functional, but besides having a bunch of ads, it keeps most features paywalled so when you try to do anything it will pester with infinite pop-ups to buy the pro version. Not worth the headache, it can be mostly replaced by a combination of other FOSS apps from F-droid, such as "kdeconnect" for file transfer and "Bluetooth remote" for seamless Bluetooth remote emulation.

It seems that some issues may occur between the app and the Google system if you have multiple accounts on one device. In my case, the activation was not successful, but I changed my review as the developer tried everything he could to fix this. Google, now it is your turn to make everyone's life easier...
