Nebula Connect SmartProjector Reviews

“It is so bad I want to give you a 0 but I can’t so I give you a 1” -Tyra Banks ⭐️

On a real note NebulaConnectSmartProjector is absolutely horrible! I cant scroll through Netflix or any other app with out constant “receiver has stopped” notifications popping up causing me to close out NebulaConnectSmartProjector and open it again. The projector is amazing so why downgrade and play yourself with this horrible app? Also why give a remote that doesn’t work for the apps? Please fix this issue soon!

NebulaConnectSmartProjector was decent, then bam a new update.

They made the touch area on the screen larger, making you have to move your fingers further across the screen to select what you desire.

But the worst is the volume. For some reason, the projector has two different volume outputs. The remote controls the main volume, but you need NebulaConnectSmartProjector to control the second volume.

So in netflix, if you want to control the volume the remote won’t work, you need NebulaConnectSmartProjector or to manually touch the projector.

So what’s the big deal? Just use NebulaConnectSmartProjector .

Well, after this update NebulaConnectSmartProjector volume no longer works, its absolutely ridiculous for something at this price point. You aren’t able to lower the volume past 70%, and it takes numerous clicks to adjust the little you can.

Not sure who thought of this change, it’s not improved anything but made it more difficult and frustrating for users.

Our projector ran great, everyone in house could use it with a different device thru Bluetooth to run our only tv and computer screen source, Nebula projector. We’re rural, off grid with phone hot spots. Now with the update, it stupidly requires the remote to be on a WiFi network AND the same as the projector, now NO ONE CAN USE IT. Our WiFi can only handle one device, it took us a year to find the a great system that was perfect. Why can’t engineers just leaves software that works alone long enough to get at least six months of decent use out of if a device. Greediness and need to complete ruins anything good.

I’ve been using NebulaConnectSmartProjector for over a year and the latest update has made it worse. On Netflix, for example, I can no longer scroll down through the episodes with the mouse to select the episode you want. Instead, I have to click on an episode I’ve already watched and then click the button that shows other episodes and there I can scroll to find the one I actually wanted to watch in the first place. It’s only a mild inconvenience but I’ve never had this problem with past versions. It also disconnects from the projector every time you close NebulaConnectSmartProjector or your phone screen goes to sleep, or if you haven’t used it in the last minute. It takes a good 5-10 seconds for NebulaConnectSmartProjector to open and refresh its connection with the projector which interrupts the flow of presentations. I liked past versions much better. This update has brought the functionality of NebulaConnectSmartProjector backwards.

I can’t even log into Disney plus. There’s no way to even select the log in button with how terrible the remote functionality is. I used to be able to, but when I updated the Disney plus app on the projector it logged me out and I can’t even log in. I wish we could see a mouse on the screen and that it would actually be able to reach the buttons we need. NebulaConnectSmartProjector has made it impossible to watch half the shows i used to be able to.

Using on iPhone SE. The mouse has a noticeable delay from the previous version. The controller lags as well but not as noticeable in comparison to the mouse. Switching to the keyboard to search for new Apps to install does not register the new text immediately like the previous version. Also, what happened to the option to power off the device from NebulaConnectSmartProjector ?

Let me be clear that the speaker and device itself are excellent. The volume is fantastic. So why is it, that when I use certain apps such as Netflix, the volume is much softer than say...YouTube. When I have company, Netflix is impossibly low. I even purchased external speakers which have made the movie experience even better for most apps, but is still soft on apps like Netflix. Since the built in speaker and external speakers are capable of being extremely loud on many of the streaming services, it should be equalized for all. Please fix this. It does not do your device justice.

NebulaConnectSmartProjector is helpful because it allows use of the projector with more dexterity (in some cases) than the remote that it automatically comes with. That being said, the phone keyboard function only works when I use prime video and nothing else (it doesn’t work with any of the other apps on the projector).

Additionally I think it’s missing a “sleep timer” function so you can set it to turn off in 30 minutes or an hour. The projector battery only lasts 4 hours so I would like to have a sleep timer function to have it turn off in case I dose off.

Works fairly well but a little clunky. Seems odd with that you have to use NebulaConnectSmartProjector remote to access your online video application with the Nebula Capsule instead of the physical remote. I suggest if your gonna provide a physical remote, at least make sure it can be used complete with all the device applications

Really nice app. One missing and super helpful feature would be to have a way to see remaining battery life from NebulaConnectSmartProjector. Some apps, like Netflix don’t show it without exiting, so being able to check from the phone would be super useful!

Also would be nice to have some media buttons. Dragging the cursor to the Netflix play/pause button is a bit tedious.

NebulaConnectSmartProjector gives you only one way to get help trouble shooting and that is the robot chat. It won’t connect you with anyone and if you try to give a feedback through email it won’t connect you there. I really love my nebula but I just want to try and watch Disney plus through this device but it seems impossible to reach anyone to get help to set it up. I still give it 4 stars just because I love the quality of my nebula and some tricks that NebulaConnectSmartProjector can provide but it certainly needs a lot of improvements.

Just like the title says. When I try to stream my movies to this amazing little projector I get a notice that they are DRM protected and can’t be viewed on this device. Disappointing but I’m getting used to it. Thanks apple for being jerks.

Controls the nebula devices alright. Seems a little clunky and buggy at times, but is still certainly useable. I end up using the physical remote more often than not though, but glad to have this as an option.

Changed to 3 stars from 5 because I was struggling to connect. App took forever only to connect and disconnect constantly. Finally figured out that connecting to Bluetooth speaker broke everything. Deleted the nebula from Bluetooth devices and it worked great again. If a new update resolves this I will update the rating again.

You can do way more with NebulaConnectSmartProjector than the remote so I hope this gets fixed or I won’t be able to use the Bluetooth speaker.

The convenience of being able to take control of my projector via a mobile phone app is invaluable. Most often, I use my projector outdoors and even more often I travel and use in different locations. I sometimes forget to pack the manufacturer remote. This is where NebulaConnectSmartProjector stands in the gap. The control selections are just enough to give you full use of your device. I also like the fact the you are able to use NebulaConnectSmartProjector without logging into or setting up a nebula account.
I highly recommend NebulaConnectSmartProjector and look forward for more features/buttons to be added to it in order to up its convenience level.

With there was a way to see battery life on all screens. Also, something that would be super helpful for future updates would be to create some better option for scaling the screen to fit the screen you are working with. There doesn’t seem to be a way vs bringing it closer or father away.

The update is awesome. I can finally use the Crunchyroll app. Before I would have to log into Chrome and log in there which was okay. It just takes longer and sometimes lag. All of the apps work perfectly now. I love my projector and the nebula app.

If you always misplacing the remote, this is a must have app. Looking forward to any future updates to add more functionality

I love the practicality of this projector and the quality is great, my concerns are more with the viability of NebulaConnectSmartProjector usage and the ability to stream via WiFi. I have a high speed Comcast and it fails to follow through at times

NebulaConnectSmartProjector works seamlessly with the nebula projector. Never fails to instantly connect. Always works flawlessly. And the apps on the device also work perfectly and are intuitively controllable from the iPhone app. Far exceeded my expectations.
