EmbedComments on VLC Remote for Android
★★★★★
I wish more apps were this elegantly simple. I was looking for an app to control VLC on my media PC and that's exactly what this does, and it does it better than I ever could have imagined! Being able to browse my media from my phone is a really great feature. This app is almost perfect! The one and only feature I would like to see if the ability to change the color scheme since I've never been a big fan of VLC orange. Worth every penny and I'd highly recommend it to anyone.
★★★★★
Works amazing well worth the money for this great software. Nice job devs!
★★★★★
Wish it had support to select network streams to be played on VLC. I had to make a playlist of my Internet radio stations as a workaround.
★★★★★
Works better than the other paid vlc remote I just bought then found this
★★☆☆☆
Works as advertised, but cannot install paid version on more than one android phone/tablet. Results in "already installed" but charges me twice anyway. Also, it requires VLC to be running, that's fine, but could you get the PC app to run VLC manually if not already running?
★★☆☆☆
Absolute rubbish. Will not connect to vlc on a remote Linux system. The earlier incarnation of this app worked flawlessly. I can't believe I paid money for this! The help webpage is a complete joke and the support is non-existent. Do yourself a favor and avoid.
★★☆☆☆
Unsupported. I paid for pro, and it don't update anymore. Sent several feedbacks no answers.
★★☆☆☆
Playlist does not populate unless vlc is already playing, also password doesn't save even when checkbox is clicked
★★☆☆☆
VLC has a built-in web based remote. This app gets blocked by the firewall, does not work correctly, and even if it did work you are paying for something that exists for free.
