Best APP EVER!
I have had this app to screencast through our Roku for over a year now. It has ALWAYS been reliable. Even when apple updated their iOS system and it became incompatible with the app, the developers kept us updated the entire time that they knew of the issue, offered a temp fix, and when they hoped to have the issue resolved. I also want to say that I am not a tech geek, app specialist, or even that knowledgeable about screencasting. Everything I know I learned through this app. We use it EVERY SINGLE DAY to watch shows my husband and I grew up on and loved like Quincy M.E., Hercules, Xena-Warrior Princess, Seaquest DSV, Fantasy Island, and Firefly. But we also use it to screencast current shows and all their past seasons like Murdoch Mysteries, The Shannara Chronicles, The Walking Dead, Chicago Fire, Once, and so many more... That doesn’t even begin to cover the amount of movies we have watched! Too many to even list... I truly can’t say enough great things about this app. I have recommended it to everyone I know and to whomever is reading this review. I also paid to unlock all the extras and it was worth EVERY penny! I hope you all enjoy it as much as our family does.
By Worth Reading, I Guess.
Kinda fixed the patch!! Thanks!!!!
I took my bad off review because you guys actually tried to fix the patch i notice that it works on mostly any movie i select from an ads free website i see movies. But if the http has google on it like for example http/:goolgeshare or http/:googlestorage or any other form of google it doesn't work it does play on my phone but says failed to load but only on google or lemonshare http/: if you could fix that patch i would be thankful and if its out of your hands still great job guys and thanks for all your hard work and actually listening to our comments and try making this app the best. P.S. try fixing the google problem because narcos season 3 is only on googleshare lol 😅

🤗 A MUST HAVE! 🤩
This app does EXACTLY what it says it will do, if not m😳re! (If that’s somehow p🤨ssible.) in all honesty though, this 💎 of an app is an absolute insta-download if... 1. You own/ use a Roku. 2. Want to cast either photos, music, or videos/ movies🎞 🎥🍿 from your 📱onto your 🖥! It worked perfectly from the minute I downloaded it for the sole purpose of casting movies I had been streaming from a website on my iPhone, onto a bigger screen, being my somewhat older, Vizio 37 in. flatscreen! Not to mention there wasn’t and still hasn’t been N🚫T ☝🏼problem or issue which seems to be VERY rare these days w/ all the apps out there nowadays! Anyways, I recommend this one 💯% to everyone out there!✌🏼this app is a God send! 🙌🏼🙏🏻
