## Description

Reflector Director allows you to manage the Reflector 4 desktop screen mirroring software from an iPad or iPhone. Step away from your computer and maintain control of shared content. View and manage connected device screens from the palm of your hand.  
 
Reflector Director features: 
 
Emphasize Devices 
Use Reflector Director to highlight a device that’s connected to Reflector 4. Spotlight important content or action. Reflector Director brings screens to center stage for emphasis. Eliminate distractions by enabling full-screen mode. 
 
Preview Screens 
Reflector Director shows screen previews of any devices that are connected to Reflector 4, even if the screen is hidden to your audience. This allows you to know what’s going to be presented before you show a connected device screen to others in the room. 
 
Keep Audience Focused 
Add Reflector Director to any classroom or collaborative space to create a distraction-free environment. Spend more time concentrating on people and less time in front of a computer screen. 
 
Device Frames 
Use Reflector Director to select new device frames to display on mirrored screens, or choose to hide frames entirely. Displaying a frame around devices adds a polished and professional feel. 
 
Secure Pairing 
Pairing Reflector Director to Reflector 4 is easy and secure. Reflector Director even helps you easily connect to a computer’s Reflector software on limited and restricted networks. The apps are paired directly together with no in-between connections. Use a Quick Connect Code (TM), QR Code or Bluetooth to easily pair. 
 
How It Works

Reflector Director allows you to step away from your computer while still controlling how your audience views the devices that are connected to Reflector 4. Easily show and hide devices, emphasize screens, enable full-screen mode or change device frames all while away from your computer.

## Review summary

Most reviewers report Reflector Director as unreliable and hard to connect. Repeated issues include failing to pair across devices, pricing confusion with mandatory add-ons and refunds problems, and weak support. The software is described as outdated and not well maintained, with enterprise networks and compatibility posing additional barriers. A minority note that casting is possible in theory and that help pages exist, but the overall experience is negative.

### Pros

- Some users report it worked OK in the past.
- Casting between iPhone and computer on the same network has been described as the intended workflow.
- Website help pages provide steps to connect (guidance available).

### Cons

- Unreliable connectivity: frequent failures to connect between devices, even after following steps and on the same network.
- Pricing and billing issues: additional Reflector Desktop licenses required or charged fees; reports of undisclosed charges and difficulty obtaining refunds.
- Poor support: difficult to contact, dismissive responses, and refund difficulties.
- Network/compatibility problems: may be blocked by enterprise networks or other network restrictions; some devices not supported.
- Outdated/undermaintained: many reviews say it used to work years ago but fails now after updates.
