“Can these guys do no wrong? Seriously, if only other app devs knew how to make apps as well as these guys, the world would be a better place. Or at least my device would be less buggy. I was just watching a Full HD copy of Avatar Extended Edition being streamed from my PC on my iPod Touch 2nd Generation and it looked and played amazingly.”

“…it's as good as having the original VLC player on your iOS device…”
- CallingAllGeeks.org

“…Setup is a snap and literally takes 2 seconds. You can browse through all your movies from your device and click any one to start playing. It even works if you have the movies stored on a USB drive connected to the host computer.”
-The Times of India

“Took me seconds to setup to stream from a secondary drive in my home office. Going straight out to get a cable for my TV.”
- USA Reviewer

“….This sucker can stream off the pc and plays virtually anything you throw at it. Download it now!”
- TaxiDriver at Blippy.com

Thank you for this app!

While the automatic connection doesn’t always work, this is such a useful app for me! I’m certainly glad you made it and I hope it continues to survive. Particularly, it’s great to be able to watch my DVD’s on my iPad. I also appreciate that there was careful effort put into writing the various instructions on the site.

Unable to try app

It immediately pops up with advertisements for the full version. Subscribing to either monthly or Annually. Closing the advertisement only results in it opening up again. What’s the point in having this version, if it requires you to get the full version?

Garbage

I paid for the full version, and it just kept getting worse every update. Now it doesn’t even work. Save yourself the hassle

Paid for the full version

Even when I paid for the full version—I got his advertising—-I emailed him—2 days later advertising is gone—-after over a week —-advertising is back on…what does it take to get what you paid for?

Can’t add password to srt stream in mobile app

Stream breaks

If streaming from internet addresses every time phone rings or you leave/connect to a WiFi it stops streaming and have to completely kill and restart app even if you don’t answer call.

5 Stars - Works as Advertised

Great piece of software that does this one thing very well. Clean interface, flawless function, and exceptional customer service (that you will never need).

I Got robbed.

I purchased this app in 2017 when it was a ONE time payment of $2.99 now they went into subscription mode and my purchase got erased from the App Store. It is now as if I had never paid anything. I get adds now unless I subscribe. I contacted support hobbyist software, sent them a copy of my receipt and they did not respond. Not sure if it’s them or Apple but it’s bad just wiping clean a purchase.

Doesn’t work.

Pc program says it works with windows xp yet when installing on windows 7 it says I need to install net framework. I’m not ruining my machine with that.

Great when it works

There was an update last week, since the update which was the only change app no longer works. On remote computers all firewalls are off and even when they are not all tests pass however cannot connect to remote computers
