A step back from version 3
Version 4 has been a big disappointment. Curtain mode is good, but the rest has been a hassle:
- The first two versions (4.0 and 4.0.1) crashed on launch.
- Screens Connect just stopped working, despite me making no changes.
- Once I finally got Screens Connect working via port forwarding (which used to not be required), my existing setup in the iOS app didn’t work. Wouldn’t connect.
- So I deleted that and added the same exact screen over the network and it connected, though I had to redo all my settings again.
- Once I was finally connected, I found the app to be very sluggish. It was nowhere near as smooth as the previous app.
Basically, this is one of those “I guess there are some okay minor new features, but a lot of things broke and the rest of the app has taken a big step back” updates.
Bummer. The app worked perfectly fine before, and is now worse.
