Awesome app. Works great easy to use laser pointer on point. Saved the day.

Quite good as-is, but definitely things that could be improved. It is a bit sluggish due to using Bluetooth connectivity. I'd like to see Wi-Fi as an option for better range and bandwidth. Still though, it does quite a bit more than a $100 presentation remote. I do training presentations on a regular basis and make good use of the presenter view. However, I don't always have the luxury of being able to glance at my laptop while presenting. Using my phone and having the ability to pan through slides is great. Like I said, the improvement could be option to use Bluetooth or Wi-Fi with Wi-Fi offering better speed and even better live view of the presentation. I have a mobile hotspot I carry with me, so I'm never without some kind of Wi-Fi AP to link up to.
★★☆☆☆
Useful app, poor design. Would be so much more natural to allow slides to
change with a swipe, and to allow a look at the next slide by "peeking"
during a half-swipe. App should also allow working with screen off: I
should be able to change slide by shaking my phone, or by tapping anywhere
on the screen when it is off. Should allow suppressing of alerts from other
apps like WhatsApp and phone calls during presentations. Give us a pencil
with the ability to zoom into a slide on the phone and finger write on it,
so I can circle and underline instead of the laser pointer.

How about us Mac users? I was looking forward when I installed this app to
my phone just to learn that there's no equivalent app made for the Mac when
connecting via bluetooth.
★★☆☆☆
It didnt state that it will only work on microsoft 2013. Wasted my time
trying to find the office remote tab.
★★☆☆☆
useless. doesnt recognize the PowerPoint doc open on my computer so it
doesnt work for the intended purpose for me

After 9 months+ still no support for Android Oreo (Adaptive Icons). Apps
from smaller companies managed to update their icons within days/weeks.
People dislike visually disturbing icons, which is why Apple made all icons
the same shape. Now, Google implemented a feature to easily do the same and
Microsoft chooses to ignore it. And please don't just shrink the icon and
use a white background. It has 2 layers: icon and background. Quick and
easy to implement! Thanks :)
