## Review summary

User reviews consistently report the Optoma HDCast Pro iOS app as largely non-functional: empty/blank device lists, inability to connect or select a projector, and no screen mirroring or AirPlay. When it does work, features are limited to photos or camera viewing with frequent disconnects. The UI is described as ugly and non-intuitive, and compatibility with newer iOS versions and dongles is poor. Overall, most users advise avoiding the app and using HDMI as an alternative.

### Cons

- App is non-functional on iOS; multiple reviews say it doesn’t work at all.
- Blank or empty devices screen with no way to add or select a projector.
- No screen mirroring or AirPlay support; casting frequently fails or disconnects.
- Limited functionality; only photos/camera viewing with no streaming from apps, websites, or services.
- Poor UI/UX and setup; confusing menus and an ugly interface; compatibility issues with iOS versions and dongles.
