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.

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.

Or if it does, it’s such a confusing mess that I can’t figure it out. I am leaning towards it just doesn’t work though, cuz it’s really pretty well designed and easy to get. It would be a real shame if such a pretty app is a worthless piece of garbage, I really hope I’m just being stupid. What is obviously *supposed to happen* is you go in the app, hit the screen record button, and route the recording to the app instead of to Photos or something. What *actually* happens is the app isn’t even an option for where to route your screen recording to, so there’s actually no way for your pc to pick it up. Recording to somewhere else obviously does nothing at all. So until this gets fixed, the pc app is just an overly complicated “iOS device plugged in” detector
