works great. sometimes, it has a little trouble connecting, but it works perfectly 90% of the time for my smart TV. I think they may have fixed the connection issues in the latest update as I haven't had any issues since, but it still gets a 4 for the trouble it caused me previously. does what it needs to do. can't answer for other devices other than TV though.
Prior ratings was 5star. Worked fine for a while - for the most part anyway. Would randomly disconnect from TV at times. Now a 1star rating. With most recent "required" update, after selecting device, to the right of "On", the "connect arrow" does not appear to tap when attempting to connect to TV. I've turned TV off & on, closed app then force-stopped, rebooted phone, etc. What is the fix? HELP PLEASE.
I Started using SmartThings last year when Samsung SmartView functionality for screen mirror stopped working on my Galaxy Note 10+. The SmartThings App was glitchy, but I did manage to get screen mirror to work with my TCL Roku Smart TV (3+times per week for my zoom workouts). However this evening when I tried to do screen share, Smart Things doesn't find/recognize the TV (which I had as a favorite) even though they are on same wi-fi network. This is once again a major inconvenience to me.
