8 Positive User Reviews for PhoneCast
Cash grab, but it works
It works. I mistakenly thought this would let me use the mouse to interact with the phone screen, i.e., play games with the mouse, but it doesn't work like that. It doesn't advertise itself that way so that's my bad. Also, resolution is terrible unless you pay $5 extra. I don't mind the bad resolution but just a heads up.
Must have app for sharing phone in meetings
This app is perfect when you want to share your phone screen duing a meeting. I often need to share a web browser screen and phone screen and I can show both of them side by side now thanks to Phone Cast. It works with multi-monitor too, which solved my issue with Apple's built in casting. (Apple's native cast takes over ALL screens which makes it tough to use in a screen sharing meeting). Phone Cast solved these issues for me. I highly recommend it.
Lag
The quality if the screenshare is definetly very good (albeit maybe not worth the price). While it also runs at a high consistant frame rate, there is VERY large and noticable lag. If you could please fix this that would be great, because it fails at one of its advertized purposes, gaming. And please respond to this post if you can.
Great Tool for Video Calls
I use Phonecast to bring an app up to my PC Screen when leading and sharing my screen on Video Calls.
I've got other apps that do this as well....but NONE of them have been as easy to use on a consistent basis.

Amazing for mobile development
When I need to screenshare what's going on, on my phone and I'm doing a slack screenshare of my desktop, I open up this app. Works like a charm.
Not sure why the bad reviews are there. It's pretty straighforward..
Great App for your iphone!
Works Great! and the main thing, It does NOT load data mining cookies on your MAC for the data to get sold. As some of the phone mirroring app do. Plus, it is at a GREAT price! A tenth of what the others cost.

Cash Grab
Paid 1.99 just to download. Don’t realize until you install that basic features like audio require a subscription. Uninstalled within 2 minutes. I guess it’s decent if all you need is a visual.
Meh.
DO THIS INSTEAD: Plug in your ipad, go to Quicktime > File > New Movie Recording > Select your ipad as the screen (on the drop down NEXT to the Record button) and you'll have real time mirroring, no lag or pixel buffering. You're welcome.
Here's my review:
This is great for simple "here look at this" kind of stuff. Even with the paid HD casting, Paid audio casting, and paid auto rotate (which is 4.99 per upgrade) the image quality and the LAG really suffer.
I wanted to use this for showing a g
