User Reviews

User reviews consistently report that BenQ Smart Control fails to reliably connect or respond to BenQ projectors (GV31, GV1, GV series). Many experiences show a connected status but no action, with updates or wifi issues breaking functionality. Netflix control is particularly weak, often unable to launch or control playback and prone to disconnects. Input methods—mouse, touchpad, keyboard paste—are unreliable or missing, making navigation painful. Overall, the app is perceived as poorly tested or a prototype rather than a finished product.

Pros

Cons

Connectivity issues: the app shows as connected but the projector doesn\'t respond, across multiple models (GV31, GV1, GV series).
Frequent stability and update-related bugs that break functionality (e.g., updates causing wifi access to be blocked or the app to stop working).
Netflix control is unreliable: cannot launch or control Netflix playback and experiences frequent disconnects while using Netflix.
Input and navigation problems: mouse/touchpad often unresponsive, selections fail, and keyboard paste/input is missing or unusable.
Overall poor quality and testing: many reviewers describe the app as a proof-of-concept or not fit for purpose.

This might be the single worse app I have ever used in my life, someone needs to go back to the drawing board. Please dont require this to be used.

So disappointed at the quality of this app for $1k+ projector. BenQ should hire a proper team to build and test this App. Right now it is no better than a proof of concept App.
