Screen Mirroring App Reviews

Excellent rating 4.8 / 5

  • Great App and Customer Service! I love this app. It allows me to mirror my work from my computer to my screen. There is a bit of a lag from what’s being done on the computer to when it actually appears on the screen, but other than that, it works great!
