I like the application very much, is there a possibility to see the screen as well in the mobile with control ? Sometimes I see the lag when controlling the controls.

Great app but.. You can turn off the "find mobile devices" feature on Zorin OS. There should be a similar option on the mobile app. This clearly takes a toll on your phone's battery and that's why I can't really recommend it.

Hey guys, I'd love to see Google assistant added to the features of this app. For example "hey Google take a note and send it to 'pc_name' on Zorin connect" or "hey Google please play music on YouTube music on 'pc_name' on Zorin connect" , etc... otherwise it's a very usable very functional app which works super well!! Kudos to you guys, you made my switch from Windows a breeze with the whole OS experience.

The application works great with the system. But I request the developer to please fix an issue. Whenever you done using the app, even after the exiting the application keep on running and stick to the notification bar. Please try to fix the issue. Sorry for my poor English

Expecting more features! I'm a windows users who switch to Zorin OS 16 and I'm inlove with the OS. I use "Your Phone" app on Microsoft a lot before, and "Your Phone" app could screencast my phone and let me control it on computer. Scrcpy also do not work to me, I use samsung btw. Anyways, the existing Zorin connect app is working well. Hope to have remote screencast feature soon!

This is exceptional how fast and easy it works! This puts shame on even samsung DEX and all others! Kudos to developers! After loads of distro hopping, bugs, issues etc. Zorin is a breeze of fresh air in stability and functionality! Even when installed on a potato laptop over 10 years old works great!

Features were interesting...the app lacks real time interface update i.e., let's say I open VLC on laptop, it takes time or multiple app shutdowns to reflect VLC in media player control interface...worst of all, my phone behaves weird after prolonged usage (30 minutes), display won't works...I have force reboot my phone and after uninstalling the app from my phone works, it great as before...

Love Zorin. I happily bought Ultimate (and I highly recommend!) App is an awesome job and has so much potential. I agree with other reviews: it would be nice to be able to close the app (instead of having to force close it). I also wasn't able to get texting to work: I could send from the PC, but no notification for incoming and conversations wouldn't appear. I gave the app all Android permissions, so maybe it has to do with the fact that I use Textra and not Android Messages app on my phone?

OMG, I ALWAYS WANTED THIS! After switching to ZorinOS, I saw this one and gave it a try, and this is it. I was literally thinking about using multimedia controls on Windows before, and there I have it thanks to ZorinOS. This is the best thing that happened to me this week. Absolutely deserves a five-star.

Tried with zorin pro which i recently purchased but seems it is one way broken street. If i had established connection successfully of devices, and did a link or file share from desktop to mobile, mobile never receives it. All notifications from my phone show up as popups after popups but cant disable it nor see any selected notification. The mouse pointer pad & buttons seems to work on their own nothing what user wants. In short,sync & collaborative feature of connect never works from anywhere.

I admit, I did not try every feature. I tried the messaging part of the app, and I was very disappointed because Zorin Connect app (for Zorin OS Pro17.1) on Desktop does not display active text conversations from my Android 11 phone (moto g power (2020) XT2041-4). In my opinion, the Zorin Connect team is going to hurt the reputation of Zorin OS.

The app works fine, but two things bother me: 1. It consumes a LOT of battery power. 2. It doesn't seem to completely disconnect from the computer even if I force close the app.

Despite having some "similarities" with KDE connect , this app provides a really nice user experience due to the fact that it's integrated with ZORIN OS 15 ,just on a button click i am able to share files between my laptop and phone effortlessly (the file sharing works with phone hotspot and the transfer rate is phenomenal around 30-25 mb/s ). I only wish that there is an exit button on the phone , i don't really need an always running app affecting my battery life when i don't really need it at that time

Please add a bar down side of screen from which we can toggle full-screen ,play, pause ,rewind, forward, next previous ,and volume up down from phone volume keys buttons should be work for both browser and anything playing in zorin and it will be perfect and one more should be able to browse file from storage includinv other connected. Storage or mounted storage to play videos thank you very much for add mouse in this 😀🙏

Cannot control the phone's media RELIABLY. The control lags really bad and most of the time it doesn't work (Pixel 5a, Android 13, YouTube Music & Spotify). BUT, if I control the PC's media via my phone, it works like a charm. I believe it is about the compatibility with my phone, but I don't have any other phone to test. Looking forward for the fix. Other than that, it works well (The remote trackpad lags too, but I never use it anyway).

Impressed with the performance. Feature Request: it will be great if you introduce a feature that will allow mobile client to trun on hotspot on the laptop and connect to it automatically without touching the laptop. And allow Computer client to crate and connect to mobile hotspot similarly. Also, please add an option to stop zorin connect from mobile. Exiting the app don't stop the app. Sometimes I don't want it to connect to the PC. Thanks 😊

Certainly, I like this app. I'm using the Wiko u307as with Android 9. The following issues are current: file transfer is occurring only in one direction from the laptop to the mobile. The volume on the multimedia control does not work. In addition, the play button does not allow the user to resume when the video is paused. Let's see about fixing those issues and then there will be five stars. Thank you
