Downloaded the PC program and installed the app and paid to use it - thankfully for only one month- and spent the next few hours trying to make it work. Closest I could get was screen from iPhone was displayed on PC. Never got the mouse to appear for calibration much less control. Went to the Discord support site and saw the last time the author of the app was there was 9 months ago - March 2024-and it’s now late December. Decided to uninstall it at that point and end my $2.50/month subscription. Glad I didn’t pay $40 for a “lifetime” license.

You will brick the device and it will be gone. For some reason the developer disabled the GitHub issues for the repository, so all of the searches for issues regarding this thing lead to 404 pages. This is super annoying. You can still view the cached pages in the Wayback machine, and it looks like a lot of people are having the same problem. When you flash the firmware onto the USB dongle, it will work only while it is plugged in for the first time. It will not work again after that and the dongle doesn't even appear in the list of usb devices attached to your computer. Works fine with Android devices without the dongle, but that's not why I'm writing this review.

Took a few minutes to get up and running. The windows app explains very clearly what you need to do and if you follow the instructions it works fine.

I just spent 3 hours of my life trying to understand how this app works. The design is completely impenetrable. In their efforts to be sleek they have created an insanely obtuse product. It took me way too long to try to crack the mystery of upgrading to Pro so I could actually give them money and then came the unexplained licensing agreements which Google then rejected. Needless to say after closing my computer to take some deep, cleansing breaths I knew I had to leave them the Worst possible review. Do not purchase unless you are a mystical IT Master who understands the ways of the unexplained.

After using it to great effect in android I finally had a use case for this on my new iPhone. Besides some potentially confusing prompt about needing a Bluetooth dongle (which I don’t need since I only use screen mirroring, not control) everything else worked flawlessly.

Reading the directions is like rocket science. Almost impossible to get setup with the windows app. After a long time I was able to get my phone screen to show up on windows but the app said it was in “Mirror Only Mode” and it said I needed some driver. After clicking the link to the driver I was told that the driver costs money!? Yeah no. I have NEVER seen a driver cost money.

This app is completely useless. Why doesn’t it function like the desktop version?

No problems using app. Just need to follow directions.

I genuinely thought the other people in the reviews were actually being stupid and this app worked fine. But yeah it just doesn’t work at all and is needlessly complicated for what it should be doing. Also, another monthly subscription plan. Yay. Buy a capture card.

This app is odd. On my other computer, visor desktops works with iOS without using this app but my second computer this app is required. The other issue is I keep getting disconnected!
