New update is great
Adam J Hamilton
The new update is great and brought back the features I had been missing. Thanks for listening! I use this app every day and don't know what I would do without it.
Buy this app
Zig to the Zag
This app does exactly what I need it to do. AND.... the customer service is great. I had a "user error" happen with the iPhone app, I emailed the company and Steve helped me get back on track. He was great. So much so I paid for the IPad version. This app is great.
Does it all but...

Landscape mode! Please add landscape with keyboard and mouse functionality!!
Best of class, in a saturated field

There are too many wireless trackpad/keyboard apps. This is the best. It works exactly the way it should without installing any software on your Mac. (You can even adjust the cursor sensitivity and change the scrolling direction from within the app!) To be perfect, I would ask for the following minor improvements: 1. Add support for iPhone 6 and 6 Plus screen resolutions so the app better makes use of these screens. 2. Dismiss the “Authenticating” popup faster (after locking with the app open, then unlocking, you can actually control the cursor and keyboard before the popup is gone. I’d rather this dialogue be turned into a dropdown info bar, like the “Connected to Computer” bar. 3. If possible, maintain a persistent connection using a background service so “Authentication” is not necessary after locking/unlocking or switching apps. Excellent App, worth every penny!
Not a replacement for Magic Trackpad
nastynapkin
It connects pretty easily if you follow the directions and it works, but it’s not a suitable replacement for an actual Magic Trackpad. You can’t do three-finger touch tap controls (like tapping to define a word or dragging to highlight text). Plus, the general feel of the glass screen just doesn’t quite compare to the trackpad on the Macbook
Worsened third party keyboards
John J. Righteous-Hypocrite
This wasn't a fix for third party keyboards. The regular keyboard has lost the ability to include the predictive text bar and SwiftKey no longer works. It fit like a glove before the update. Disparaging.
El Cap Problem
Marhkco
This app is a great idea. However, I can’t make it work under El Cap. Did email the developer - not much help there. Used to work with Yosemite. Now I can connect, and it confirms the connection, but can’t control anything. Have tried all the tricks. Seems to be a firewall issue of some sort.
Does not work
Maxx72ru
Does not work out of the box, connected with developers, they gave me recommendation that didn't help and then disappeared. I expected the app to have Mac OS X companion app that provides connection, but instead they rely on system built-in screen sharing ca-abilities, that do not work in one click.
