It's a good little app that does what you want it to, with only a few minor niggles. 1. Shorter time skips would be great, sometimes I miss something and have to fiddle with the slider or go back 3 minutes. 2. No resume watching function. Apart from that, you've knocked it out the park.

Awesome... No interruption in streaming even when I cast from my Nexus cell phone to Chromecast.

Very useful; I can stream media files from PC to my android tablet without using up SD card memory. Or transfer the file if I choose to download it....it really works well once set up properly, and the user guide is easy to follow.

Worse than when it was free. Copying a movie to the device fails at the same spot every time, and it loses connection to the computer... Can't seem to get around the issue. Oddly, I never had problems with this app before the dev started to ask for money. Edit: Now copying works but trying to do it onto a phone, when you try to press the (i) logo to select file options, you touch the side scrolling bar instead making it impossible to copy files. Unbelievable.

Nothing but errors. This app used to be amazing but ever since it went to a paid "updated" version it's been nothing but a headache. Cant connect to my pc most of the time. Downloading to device freezes every 4 minutes of progress and won't complete. Such a disaster from an app that used to be amazing. I used to be such a big fan of everything vlc for so long, but this is just garbage. So disappointing. And I bought and tried the paid version because what it USED to be been well worth it.

For some reason the Android version is not as robust as the iOS version. Since switching to Android I compared and realized the app was not designed properly. For example, in your movie menu when you try to click the "i" info icon to the right of the title to bring up the options' menu. What happens is that it hits the scroll button and scrolls down to another title in your list. It's frustrating. Even If you get it to work, then it downloads a completely different title to your phone.

Purchased, tells me I must install "helper", is an endless loop without a "helper" software available
