User Reviews

The app is widely liked for solid DLNA casting and strong performance, with several reviewers calling it among the best DLNA streaming apps. However, repeated issues with reliability, charging during trials, intrusive ads, incomplete folder listings, and some feature gaps (like YouTube casting) hinder consistency for many users.

Pros

Excellent DLNA/casting support and broad device compatibility (including Grundig and older hardware).
Widely praised for high-quality streaming and considered one of the best DLNA/streaming apps by multiple users.
Easy to use for streaming movies and videos from Android to TV with a positive user experience.

Cons

Reliability and stability issues: startup hangs, occasional freezes, and device-to-device casting failures (and Wi-Fi dropouts during playback).
Billing/trial problems: immediate charges after a free trial and unclear refund/responses from support.
Intrusive ads that disrupt usage and degrade the viewing experience.
Folder indexing problems: not displaying full lists and some folders not being detected unless renamed.
YouTube not supported for casting, limiting a common use case.

Recent reviews

The only issue is that it's not picking up some folders and I have to rename them. Also, when in split screen, when changing the size, the playback seeks to start. Very inconvenient. Long file names are not scrolled. Can't play files via Android Share menu.
