XBMoteC App Reviews

Works great!

Great app! The only thing I would love to see added would be an option to have the app store preloaded images. This may not be an option though because of large libraries. It would be nice if the background and controls werent so plain looking, but thats just cosmetics.

Wow - Remote works g8

This is a great app. I installed XBMC Live ( the latest) and connected with this app... wow! just connected with no problem. It works well with remore, but i have to still figure out, how other things work... but Remote works g8.

Nice free remote

I like the remote a lot, but I cant ignore the fact that I get a lot of connection problem popups. Also having a problem getting the volume and play/pause/etc buttons to work consistently. Finally, playing files using the file browser function freezes up XBMC. This app has a ton of potential and is usable, to a certain extent, in its current state.

Great remote

This is the best free remote app for xbmc. I love being able to switch between my three systems effortlessly.

Great remote!

This app has lots of features and allows quick, direct browsing of the library. I have not experienced the disconnection issues mentioned in some other reviews. The one thing I would like to see is if an episode/movie has been watched, this would make it easier to pick out the new ones for easy viewing. Really great app, keep up the good work!

Crashes

Opens then crashes.

It works

Its really good but its not perfect. My initial disappointment was that there were no instructions on how to set it up. Everything works however it loses connection with my htpc frequently. Overall a great app but it still needs some improvement.

Wont work

Could not get the app to connect to my xbmc server. I followed developers instructions but still could not get it to work. Developer offered a little help but was stumped.

Crashes!

The app worked fine for a few days then crashed within seconds of opening, every single time, to the point of needing to delete the app. Ugh!

Love love love it

Wish I could give it more stars!!! Search, browse movies/tv/music right on my phone without having to pass key presses to my xbmc. Thanks so much

Bad UI, worse functionality

In the 15 minutes before I gave up this app crashed once and then gave me a tantalising glimpse of proper functionality before failing completely. Avoid. Use the wTouch web interface instead.

Best ad-supported offering

Overall a really good app. Very stable for me, no real complaints other than Id like to be able to input text directly, and it would be nice to see a progress slider in currently playing. My favorite feature is browsing movies and shows right in the app with thumbnails.

Crashes in 1 second!!!

Installs fine, opens fine, then... bam! crashes as soon as it opens!! All can be seen is the page that says "Server" on top. Have not been able to find one XBMC remote in the iPhone Store that works. On the other hand Boxee remote app works beautifully. No need to set up an IP address, a port, or any bs like that. Boxee remote finds the machine automatically.

Crashes

It does nothing but crashes!

Great XBMC app

Works perfectly on my htpc and AppleTV 2G. And its free!!

Errors Connecting

Sometimes connects sometimes doesnt. Errors connecting every time I try to do something. Unusable.

Its a piece of crap, but it works.

The app is absolutely horrific. But, its the only one that works with Dharma. So Ill be keeping it.

Misleading Screenshots

Should update your screenshots to show the advertising bar at the top so people know there are in app ads.

Best free xbmc remote

It works and it is free how much can I complain. The only thing I would change is to move the volume away from the skip controls on the remote. Sometimes I skip instead of changing the volume. Thanks so much for this app.

Hmm

The buttons on the remote are either accidentally flawed or seriously unconventional. The middle button pauses it, even though there already is a button for pause. The "back" button exits the movie entirely. The other stuff works, but if youre trying to use it primarily as a remote, you may be disappointed.
