LocalCast Customer Insights

1. Thanks for your hard work!Very close to being exactly what I want... This plays videos from my phone, which is what I was looking for 🙌 but it only plays one video in the queue and then stops.

2. I installed this because I read that it would cast media to a Roku or other device and allow the audio to play locally on the smart phone.

3. I don't know if it is the ads always interrupting my attempts to cast, or if there needs to be more development on continuity, but this app is now more of a hassle than a benefit, and I spend more time trying to get it to work than actually using it.

4. On the off chance you get it to work you better not touch a single button or you will be watching your movie from the beginning when the ads are finally done again! (Things breaking in background) 😡😡😡What did you guys do? This app used to be great, but it has become increasingly difficult to use and has become so unreliable that I am officially abandoning it.

5. It allows turning the video or photo and enlarging it to fit the screen which is important for portrait videos and photos.

6. Lately the DLNA hasn't been up to par either, possibly because my library has grown and it may take a longer time that this app doesn't seem to want to wait for.

7. And the link to the FAQ page leads you to a casino website? Definitely needs some work but I'm glad I found it 👍I'm sorry, but there's something wrong with this app.

8. After the app randomly played through multiple videos off my phone for my family to watch that I could not stop due to the ad, I began to look for an alternate solution.

9. I hope sometime it will have screen mirroring so whatever I put on the phone screen would be on the other screen.

10. I tried to use the "try pro" feature & it attempted to load an ad that time but failed twice.

11. It will play one video but not another and BOTH of these videos have the EXACT same specs.
