Can’t figure out how to use
Charged me $9.99, I can’t figure out how to use it, and when I try to cast from my phone to the TV is keeps sending me to different apps (such as “Screen Mirroring) which cost another $9.99. Biggest rip off ever.
Total trash and outdated
Want my money back. This doesn’t even work.
It worked for a few months and now it’s stopped working
I am not sure what happened I’ve tried every possible way to cast a show as I used to do for many months and it no longer works. Very disappointed
Didn’t work
10$ down the drain.
Video
Videos never play
Horrible
They tryna make u pay for multiple diff “add-on apps”. U end up paying for 2+ apps jus to be able to screen share.
I want my money back
This only allows you to watch browser based videos and videos from your library. Does. It allow you to screen mirror videos from apps like Disney.
Hate it doesn’t do anything
Hate it doesn’t do anything right
False advertisement
I just want my refund back please, It was a waste of time and money
Do not buy !!!
This app is absolutely terrible and it requires you to purchase another app for it to even share and when it finally does share the sound won’t work and the graphics are bad
Nope
Tv is hisense, gave me a qr code to scan did that and it gave me this app paid 6.99 for it! And it doesnt work tells me to download a google app for 6.99! This is insane
Bogus
Not working for me.
Nothing works
You will spend hours trying to figure this app out and nothing works how it says it will. It will send you to other apps to pay and download that this one offered from the beginning and didn’t do.
ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE APP
Worst app ever. I want my money back. Wasn't able to cast anything at all.
Terrible
Necesito un reembolso, tienes que comprar más cosas dentro de la app para que puedas utilizarlo
Bad
Can’t mirror screen. Have to spend more money on a separate app. DON’T BUY!!!!!!
Didn’t work
Didn’t work kept freezing
Does not work
Paid for the app and it connected, but would not play. Waste of time and money.
$6 for what?!
Didn’t connect, what a waste
Don’t buy
It’s a trash scam. Do not buy. Go buy any other device with true casting or mirroring like an Apple TV. Completely trash. I want a refund and this off my phone

App doesn’t allow connection with Sony and iPhone
Bad

Cast
Never would connect video to cast on tv. Waste of money
Garbage
Would give it zero stars if I could. Keeps disconnecting. Does not work. Wish I could get my money back.
Rip off
The TV Sent me to this app to broadcast from my iPad. I purchased it, and loaded it up, only to have it tell me that if I really want to cast my screen I need to buy a second app.
Scam
This app is a scam. Doesn’t work. Thieves making money however they can
I want my money back
The app is absolutely not working for screen mirroring to my Sony via Miracast. It detects it but nothing happens when try to mirror. I want my money back since this is not working at all
Isn’t it 2024?
Confusing, no sound, times out frequently.
Waste of money
Doesn’t work
Didn’t work
Waste of time and money
Doesn’t work as expected
I was able to pass a video stream from phone to tv, but no audio. This app does not work as expected. I’d like a refund - not a comment saying “thank you for taking the time to review, we apologise for the inconvenience.”
Doesn’t work & no support
I tried, it says connected until you open a different page…
No support, except by email 😫

Save your $6.99
Disappointed!!!!!
Awful
Nothing works. Need add in’s to use.
It’s not what you think
Bought this to cast Peacock to my TV and you have to spend another 6.99 on another app to get it to work. As a in app purchase.
useless
forced me to pay for this in order to screen share from my iphone to a google-affiliated tv. the QR code came directly from the tv monitor but it's not compatible, only for sony tvs
