Downloaded the app, entered the code on the TV screen and boom I was connected I wish all connections were this easy. There app gives you a full screen guide on your phone and you just touch to select your channel there are also volume and power buttons.
★★★★★
This app works as long as you know how to use it. First step, the hotel is asking for the app to be download it. Second, you need to make sure you open the app and put the code is asking to enter. Third, the TV most be on Chromecast mode. And fourth, from your phone you need to cast like if you have use Chromecast before. If you never used it you will experience problems and don't waste your time at that point. The hotel needs to update their Chromecast to the Google tv experience.
★★★★★
It's amazing how many kiddies say they downloaded this and can't cast to the TV. There isn't a single word saying that it will let you cast your phone to TV. Children just see an app, get all excited and either can't read the description or just don't have the time to read a few sentences. This works like an airplane IFE remote. It's for on demand TV selection, a lot faster than the remote Sandman provides. The idea is that it's faster, there you go kids, FASTER!!!
★★☆☆☆
Advertises the ability to connect your YouTube, Netflix, and other streaming services to the hotel TV. Only seems to actually work to choose movies specifically on their app and turn the television on and off.
★★☆☆☆
As other people mentioned, this app is a joke. You cant cast anything from your phone. Its just another remote.
★★☆☆☆
This app is completely useless. The point is to cast my phone on to the TV but you cant even cast. It is basically just the DeerHurst TV but on your phone.
