Reviews are mixed. Many users find the app useful for USB tethering and PC connectivity, especially on devices without LAN ports, and express positive sentiments. However, several reviews cite persistent, intrusive ads that disrupt use and even report the app as the worst they’ve downloaded, pointing to reliability problems. Some users do experience connectivity issues, but others succeed in connecting where other tethering apps fail.

Recent reviews

not for Verizon users. it requires Hotspot to be on, so if you dont have that in your plan this app is pointless.

All it does is turn on your phone's metered internet sharing. So it runs out depending on your plan. PDAnet÷ is far superior and on the sly. This messed my whole month up. Don't try this.

This is NOT a fast button to enable USB Terhering. It takes longer to open the app, than going to options and doing it yourself. AND there is adds before you can do anything...
