I can’t tell if it is a Scam or Deficient programming but I paid to remove adds yet I still have them and they want let you get out of them. I continually try watching 10 second videos and it will play a couple videos then an add will pop up on your screen and not allow you to X out of it as your tv starts blaring what ever program you had it on before you started the app. At the same time on your phone you have to watch the whole advertisement as you continually try to X out of it anywhere from 5 to 15 times then it automatically re-directs you to the App Store to download or buy the advertised app and you can’t go back to the TV Assist app so you have to cancel then start all over by clinking on the app you’ve already paid for.If you use this app don’t bother paying to remove adds and steer away from anyone that has been on this app that may be mentally unstable.
I've been wanting to blast music from my iPod for a long time, but since I messed up my headphone jack and I don't own a dock it's always been a problem. I spent all day trying the other free Smart TV apps and none of them work properly. I downloaded this one and it's perfect! Good quality, volume control, no huge delays... I can even switch to other apps and leave it running in the background (it finishes the song but won't switch to the next one until you go back to the app). Only thing is the 1 minute wait time after a few songs... but if you share the app to one email (I use my own) you can play 30 songs straight with no problem~
After downloading 5 or 6 of these TV casting apps and all of them not working with my stupid Samsung SmartTV, I was all but given up hope. This was a complete surprise that this app really works. The ads are annoying and there is no option to hide the file name at the beginning of each picture, but for free I cannot complain too much. Maybe after a month of use and it doesn’t annoy me too much, I might fork out the money and actually pay for this app. Which is saying a lot from this cheapskate —> me.
The file name was displayed by TV, we can't do anything, :(
I have a Synology NAS on a home network. I have Ubiquiti AC pro Wifi access points. I play stuff off my NAS to my computers with VLC all the time no problem. I installed this app on my iPhone 6 after searching "DLNA" in the App Store. This app sees the NAS and lets me navigate the folders, but when I try to play something, I get a loading gear for a few seconds and then nothing. I tried many different files with using many different codecs and containers. Nothing. Tried killing all apps, rebooting the phone and trying again. Nothing. I tried a few other apps and came across Ace Player which played everything flawlessly. It even saw the NAS when I used OpenVPN to get to my network from the outside. Not sure what's up with "TV Assist," but it didn't work at all for me.
This apps works great and sets up quickly. I spent 6 bucks on another app that was supposed to be made for my brand of tv before finding this one. Well I lost $6 on the first app-it took the longest time to sync the device to the tv-but this one is worth the few dollars to have the premium features. I can show my iPhone pics and videos recorded on my phone with a quick set up. The ability to use the paint feature and cast a note or drawing for my wife to the tv is not a neat addition that I didn't expect. I'm enjoying this app!
I usually don't do reviews but this app here saved me over $180 by not buying Apple TV to stream my photos and videos from my device to the tv. It works seamlessly once you get the quality video figured out. I did make in app purchase to get rid of annoying only 5 videos at a time or 10 photos at a time before ad or a commercial. They have/had a bundle deal for $3 gets rid of everything. Worth every penny I am not the one to usually pay but because it is so awesome I made the purchase.
