What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"Doesn't even work. Emailed developer and didn't respond. Don't waste your money"
Simon G
"Do not start apps as soon as connected to the Bluetooth, also don't start hot spot...money thrown away"
fred diana
"Not working for me. Android 11 oneplus 8"
Omer Harel
"Was fantastic. Please fix for Android 11. Not working anymore since android 11"
Gavin Sawyer
"This app senses the bluetooth connection and disables the wifi connection on my phone, but does not start the hot spot. Even more annoying, is that the wifi stays off after bluetooth disconnects, even though the apps setting is supposed to turn it back on after disconnect. Android 11. This needs to be fixed or refunded."
Donald Kim
"Was excellent, and I've used the paid version for years without issue. Sadly, Android 11 killed it - presumably, it lacks a new, more granular permission, but it simply doesn't turn the hot spot on any more. Five stars of you have Android 10 or below, but only one of you've got 11... :("
Ian Harper
"It simply doesn't do what it says it will do, i.e. start hot spot automatically."
John Lock
"Stopped opening app from my selection very annoying ,it used to work good and automatically open my music app once Bluetooth was connected."
Kevin Syder
"Excellent app. Redmi 9 works flawlessly"
Dave Barker
