Waste of your money. D/L. Then says D/l setup tool Hours messing with. Friend had another ver on his phone which connected. Nothing professional about this app
No longer supporting updates

Has only gotten less and less useful over time. Used to be the absolute best, now it’s garbage. They will gladly still take your $2.99 however...
Works

Does what it says. Free limitations: Can't choose from playlist (but you can skip forward and back between vids) Ads (on iPhone) Can't toggle full screen (which is null because you should be full screen before walking away from pc, why would you need to toggle it when this app controls nothing but VLC)
I bought this app by mistake

It wouldn't be fair for me to rate it higher or lower than 3 since my mistake is not their fault, but I really have no use for it either so don't know how well it functions. It looks nice and if it is as useful as the VLC Streamer (which WAS what I meant to buy) then I'm sure it's worth the money.
Needs work
Unit Test
Looks nice but functionality is lacking. A simple browsing session showed me that app can not display directories with a large number of files. This is a serious flaw in my opinion since I classify movies under a few categories, therefore certain directory listings are large.
Works again

Earlier versions would stall during the autoscan. This app is great when it works, lousy when it don't work. ----------------- Yep, it's the auto-scanner: locks up the whole phone, on new version and last version before that. SHUT IT OFF. Allow us to hit the Scan button AFTER we've entered our info. Scan really needs to be a manual start. The last 2 versions stall when searching for VLC. The latest version locks up totally, will not go into editing mode, and caused my whole iPhone to lock up if not crash outright. This was great when it came out, but this new version is unusable. iOS 6.1.2, iPhone 4S. ================== Previous Review: Works for both VLC 2.x versions and pre-2.0. There are some irritating FULL SCREEN ads that pop up- You cannot toggle Full Screen mode: And believe me, there are times when you really need to toggle out of FULL SCREEN mode, and then back in. Ya can't choose from a playlist. Ya can't choose content from the browser. But if my eyes were not deceiving me where it said the full version was 99 cents, then I'll just hafta get the full version. This app fills a gap created when Hobbyist's VLC REMOTE was updated to remove access to VLC 1.x and 0.x- my heart is still with Hobbyist but I'll give this one a shot- it IMMEDIATELY found VLC running on 2 different systems running 2.0 and 1.1.9!
