Ratings and Reviews
Lacking instructions
I like it so far but am troubled by how often I need to use “shift” to select multiple items or folders. I can’t figure out how to do this.
Wildly Inconsistent on PC, don’t bother
The first time I downloaded and installed it, it worked great, connected easily. But other times it doesn’t connect at all, no matter how many times I try, even after going through all of their recommended troubleshooting procedures. When it does connect I have no idea why, nor do I have any idea why it doesn’t sometimes. I do note this relies on Bonjour, an Apple product that does not always work with PCs well. I don’t think they’ve updated their server software in a long time either, and I suspect their product has difficulty with Google Nest WiFi.
Either way, I can’t recommend it due to it’s inconsistency and the failure of their troubleshooting procedures when there is a problem.
Google has a Remote Desktop webpage that seems to work every time (and is free), so if all you want is some basic remote control of your PC, use that. Avoid this and avoid a lot of frustration.
Good for now
I agree with the statement that the icons look as if they were upscaled. The biggest difference for me is the way the mouse actually moves. On the phone i would have had to increase the sensitivity. It actually feels like I have the entire monitor to move the mouse. (because I do)
Upside :
The main use will be HTPC and this will make it so I don't need a full keyboard and mouse to clutter the living room. This will be the best purchase for of everything that I have seen on the app store. This combined with an xbmc remote will be the ultimate htpc controller. Best of all i can surf the web on the big screen and share what i find with everyone around me thanks to this.
Downside:
For everything it has it also lacks. The best thing and the worst thing for me is that its just a giant glorified mouse. There doesn't seem to be enough difference from this to the air mouse for the iPhone. Shouldn't need to pay more than 2 in my opinion. The app launcher at the bottom is nice but as it has been said before its a little blurry. The media controller doesn't seem to work with "media player classic" (win) like the air mouse did. Haven't tried others yet.
All in all I am "okay" with what I got and if you have the extra money to waist then go for it. If not then go get the free version of air mouse and it will do about the same thing just a little differently. At least until and upgrade comes out.
