## Review summary

Reviews consistently praise the app for easy setup and reliable WOL across LAN and WAN, including remote wake and Apple Watch support. However, multiple reviews report stability issues (crashes, especially when entering IPs/hostnames and on iPad), a lack of feedback confirming WOL packets, and a weak UI. Apple Watch support is noted but can be flaky. Overall, a solid WAN-capable WOL tool with notable UX and stability caveats.

### Pros

- Easy to set up and use; quick to run
- Reliable wake-on-LAN performance across LAN and WAN (works every time / flawless)
- Works over the internet (WAN/3G) and is praised as one of the few that can wake machines remotely
- Apple Watch support for WOL (noted by reviewers)
- Out-of-the-box functionality with smooth transition from free to paid configurations (positive setup experience)

### Cons

- Frequent stability issues: crashes during IP/hostname input and some iPad crashes
- No in-app confirmation or status indicator that a WOL packet was sent
- Weak or non-intuitive UI / UX complaints from multiple reviewers
- Apple Watch functionality can be flaky or broken in some cases (watch integration not consistently reliable)
