Worst application I have ever used

This may be the most useless, aggravating app I have ever used. This is just a skinned VNC remote that is designed to look for a PowerPoint slide.

Because of this, the refresh rate is God-awful. If you dont pay for the premium version, you dont the auto-refresh option. Which means that the app displays one slide prior to what is actually being displayed. If you turn auto-refresh on, it refreshes itself as described, but by doing so it causes your notes to refresh as well, which means every second, your notes will scroll back up to the top of the page. That is terrible when you have to find your place in your notes every time you look down at the remote.

And the response time isnt even it worth mentioning. You have to wait at least two seconds between each go because the app needs to update itself from the computer. Meaning you cant fire off a series of animations right after each other which makes point slides impossible.

And the final thing that drives me up the wall is during the presentation I used this for, I set it up 15 minutes prior to when I needed to actually present, which apparently is enough time for the app to forget that it is connected, therefore making it useless. The only way to fix this is to kill the presentation, kill the app, and reconnect to the machine again. Not acceptable.

I am extremely frustrated with this mis-informed app. I have never been so disappointed in a piece of software. I am demanding a refund.
