AirParrot Remote

I have an old Mac Pro. Looking to squeeze / inject life into the beast. Had a requirement for this app. Looks great but thats it. Promises so much. Rare it works and stays connected. Of it did it would be a go to app in my home.

.".....

Do not waste $8.00 on this app. Could not get it to function. Desktop version is buggy and glitchy. Help section in the app takes you to a “Page not Found” page. Wish I could get a refund.

This was a complete waste of money. No skip forward, no skip back, the two controls are tiny. They would have been better off moving the From and To options to a separate screen and making a usable interface for the app controls. It's still necessary to keep the Apple TV Remote (or another app) nearby to take care of volume, forward, reverse, etc. If it was a free app it might be worth the price. Certainly not worth 8 bucks when you have already bought the PC/Mac app for $16.

Even tho it is only like a handful of positive reviews I took a chance. I should have listened I wasted 8 bucks. Yo I’m so aggravated right now. I paid $15 the top of the year had not one issue none. Worked flawlessly. Haven’t use it AirParrot 3 and my HomePod since about June of 2021 not long but apparently long enough. It wouldn’t work. I decided to pay and download this crap app remote not even needed. I had to uninstall and reinstall parrot 3 and restart my pc for it to work. I have Windows 10, AirParrot 3 I paid $15 for and HomePod mini. I know have sound from my computer. I wasted like 3 trying to figure this out. This remote app is garbage it didn’t work still doesn’t and not sure what the point of it is. Save your $8.

Latency for the mouse movement was terrible. Due to the latency it was not usable to manage my presentation being displayed on my big screen TV even when I was right next to the computer. Could not see a way to get a refund of my money. I was going to use it with air parrot 3 but seeing that there is little support for this product I doubt if I will purchase air parrot 3.

Don’t know why it has such poor ratings. Turns any iOS device into a a very low latency secondary display for $8 if you’ve already got the also well priced desktop client. Great value all around for what you get. Now my iPad Pro has something to do when I have to use windows.

Works like magic- I’ve been streaming multiple Windows 10 pc’s to an Apple TV without a hitch. ———- Update - knocking off one star because it bugs out when selecting between two displays of the same resolution.

No way to adjust this new teeny-tiny text! Too small to read or focus on anything. Horrible, I’m mad. Trying to get back to ver2.0.

For years now the devs cannot fix a simple bug where mirroring to chromecast devices creates a nasty undescan boarder on the TV. They say it is just an issue with chromecast itself, but the issue does not occur when mirroring from a chrome browser.
