Title: Junk. Doesn't work
Review: Can't find connection 9/10 times. When you do finally find it, it tells you it can't connect. Tried multiple times. Android and Apple. The app they have you download is junk. Add loads Everytime you try to go back. Tries to constantly get you to download other stuff. Absolute waste of time and money. 110% a scam.

Title: Junk - does not work.
Review: Plugged in and followed the directions. Was able to get the device on my network easily, but the device is slow to show up on Airplay on iPhone. After connecting screen mirroring, the device works for a few seconds, then video drops out. Also - the device cannot do Apple and Android streaming without setting a switch on the device. Better bet is to buy a Roku player instead if you need both Apple and Android streaming.

Title: Garbage. I canât use it
Review: Under the impression that it would cast from my phone while connected to a hotspot but it only works if there is a home network. I bought the thing because I didnât have wifi at work. But it wonât work unless there is a wifi network to hook up to. Smh. Waste of money

Title: Great for iPhone, but you must have cellular data
Review: Despite all the bad reviews that scared me once I purchased and couldnât return it, it worked great. One downside is you must download the movie/show/video you would like to watch if you donât have cellular data. Since this device uses wifi to connect, you canât connect to your. own wifi so you can only access things that donât require wifi, or you could download the videos online and watch it offline. I use this on my pocket projector and have cellular data and this works amazing. The quality is great, connection works instantly, and works overall is great.EDIT: THIS WONT WORK WITH NETFLIX, HULU, PRIME VIDEO, OR HBO MAX. I COULD ONLY GET IT TO WORK WITH ROKU APP AND YOUTUBE. WENT FROM A 4 STAR TO A 2 STAR!
