User Reviews for OneCast - Xbox Remote Play

Awesome

So I finally decided to try this app, because of the extremely disappointing announcement that certain cloud based streaming services which I won’t name, won’t be coming to iOS. I was a little hesitant to spend $12 on it, because I was nervous whether it would actually work lag free or not. I can not believe how well this works!! I have my Xbox One hardwired to my LAN and am using medium quality on my 5ghz network (device is an iPhone XR) and it works nearly flawlessly. If I increase the quality it starts to stutter just a little, but it still looks great on medium, I think it’s still at least 720p which is good enough for me. On medium there’s no lag whatsoever and I finally have the portable Xbox I’ve always wanted but Microsoft never made. Now, I can play Halo or Forza sitting on the couch with my wife without hogging the TV in the evenings. Worth every penny! Feel dumb that I waited so long to spend the money. Thanks so much!

Audio lags, xbone controller triggers, start/select don’t react

Using with an iPhone XS, on a home network where I can stream to wireless laptops perfectly fine. I also stream FROM my pc via Moonlight and PS4 with remote play, both generally work great, moonlight especially. With no official Xbox streaming app to iOS as of June 2020, I tried this to stream my xbone and was rather disappointed. The image is excellent, and but with zero jitter or packet loss, and a max 15 ms if lag, I found the audio about 500 ms behind. Aggravating but not a deal breaker. What IS a deal breaker is that the triggers or start/select (and the “Xbox” button), are all nonfunctional on an official Xbox controller! They all definitely work in other apps, and in particular streaming to pc the controller detects as an Xbox 360 controller and works perfectly via Moonlight, so its not the controller or the phone. The image quality is great and if you’re ok using a virtual controller or remapping buttons a little i guess it’s YMMV, but I’m requesting a refund and leaving this review to warn folks away. Not that great. Fix the controller at least! And preferably that audio lag!

Pleasantly Surprised

I read a few concerning comments about this not working for some, or lagging. I have a 75dl/10ul type connection and a solid AC1900 router with my xbox plugged directly into the router via ethernet. I have very little to no lag when using an Xbox controller near my console. I wanted an extra screen for when the family room was occupied and this has been perfect for use with my iPad. Been playing Witcher 3 with no problems. Main gripes are that I can’t switch apps at all without this disconnecting and having to reconnect (usually to a white screen; pressing xbox button usually clears this), there isn’t an option to display battery life (which it goes through quite steadily while playing games), and you have to re-register a console with each individual device you want to use (e.g. iPads, iPhones). It’s close to a perfect streaming solution for xbox and iOS. Seemed a bit pricey for an app, but one days worth of use was worth it alone.

BORDERLANDS 3 USING ONE CAST FTW

I recently got this app and have been running my Borderlands 3 on both IPhone X and 2nd Gen IPad Air. Both devices work flawlessly and there is virtually no lag. I was skeptical at first but as long as I am hardwired with Ethernet on my Xbox One (first gen) and using 5ghz WiFi on my iPhone X or IPad then I have had literally no issues using the streaming service One Cast offers. I have been able to easily play from my backyard, upstairs bedroom and YES even my bathroom (don’t judge).The only issue I have had is my Wireless Controller losing connection to the Xbox One however this is no fault of the app but the wireless range of the controller itself.I have played online Gears 5 and even CO-OP SplitScreen Borderlands 3 with a 4 player party and I have yet to discern any noticeable lag time.I am a fan of this app and the developer and I can’t wait to see it develop even further and add new features. :^)

Over priced and doesn’t even work well

I have looked at reviews on this app a lot in the past before making a decision on a $12 app. The reviews made it seem like this app was great and that made me exited. When I got the app it seemed good since there are no adds and there are a lot of customizations to many things in the settings like video quality (which could get very high for streaming). But then I started to notice that the app would constantly not connect when I wanted to reconnect to my Xbox and would lad a lot when I was at high resolution even though I am running 250mbps-300mbps WiFi. I don’t think you would have a problem with the app if you didn’t disconnect and reconnect to your Xbox, but I know for a fact this app is overpriced and I would recommend just trying to get a screen with hdmi instead of streaming to a device.

Very Legit

I played Xbox in bed while laying down but I gotta be honest games that don’t require multiplayer online they run almost seamlessly without lag and it’s so cool but as for online multiplayer with some games in particular they can run somewhat smoothly and others are just unplayable but the app suggests to connect the Xbox console to a Lab cable Or Via Ethernet for 100% smooth lag free gaming but for me I’m simply running wirelessly and I never get any lag issues while playing online but through the app it can become a bit choppy and sometimes unplayable but for games that are on disk or in general single player in an open world. It works Very Very well and im definitely going to continue to use it when I don’t feel like sitting in front of a tv. Love the app totally worth the Price for an upgrade in features and variety.

Worst app don’t even bother wasting your money

Worst app don’t even bother wasting your money! This app is a joke so they begin by telling you how you can now access your Xbox one every where you go….. ha not even close, more what they should say is access where ever you can go in your house as long as you can access your wifi and when I mean only your wifi that’s no LTE no friends wifi and then the nail in the coffin it costs 12-13 dollars to buy! This thing has yet to connect anywhere out side of my house! I’m sure is was like you guys and having problems with the Xbox app which had really bad lag pixelization” I mean awful pixelization” so I looked for an alternative and stumbled across this joke of a app and it promises the moon but delivers a huge, I mean huge dissatisfaction! If you are like me having trouble with the Xbox app fear no more cause I have the answer for you….. hard wire you Xbox it’s that simple as soon as I did that the Xbox app runs perfect because when on wifi trying to play on a system that’s on wifi we’ll it’s understandable that your gonna have lag, pixelization and glitchy results! So remove the wifi to wifi and hard wire you Xbox to you modem or router and I promise you will be good to go! I use anytime with LTE, wifi on my friends, doctors, fast food places etc. you get the point just please don’t waste your money on this ridiculous app I’m requesting a refund as I type so, BEST WISHES AND HAPPY GAMING!!!!!

Fantastic!!!!

I absolutely love this app! I have no issue playing my Xbox using this app. I don't have my Xbox hard wired to the internet and I still rarely experience any lag or glitches. (It still happens but it doesn't lag very long and everything snaps back to working very quickly) It works great on both my iPhone XR and my older iPad. Great for sitting on the toilet and not missing any game time. The only thing I could wish for out of this app is the ability to stream games over mobile data. So if any of the developers are reading this please please PLEASE!! Work on that for a future update. With the Xcloud service coming out I don't see any reason why this feature wouldn't be possible. I understand that it would require 5g and unlimited data but it would be so nice to be able to leave my Xbox on at home as a server and play full games while not at home. I couldn't recommend this app enough and have been telling everyone about it since I bought it. Very very worth every penny they are wanting for it. Great job Dev team!! Thank you for building such an amazing and useful app.

A decent solution

I got this so i wouldn't have to move my system from one room to another. Its pretty straight forward and simple to setup. Basically it views a live cast from your console with control overlay on the screen. It works surprisingly good! I have the system hooked up to a fios gigabit ethernet connection and a iphone xs max or ipad air and it runs very smooth. I can even hook up a wireless bluetooth controller xbox or ps4 and it does a very good job of controlling the games. My only hope is that it would come to the apple tv. I can airplay to my apple tv and its ok but there is quite a bit of lag especially in sound and made it difficult to play fps games or things that use fast movements. It still wasn’t bad i could manage but it could be better. All in all tho, for $12 im not going to complain much. If the developer could bring this to apple tv and make it run as well as it does on ios for tvos that would be amazing! Then it could run off an ethernet wired connection and watch on tv basically like a remote system, kinda like pstv... but so much better.

Best reliable streaming app ever!!

I don’t know how but this app works so much better and smoother than the actual Xbox app itself!! And this app connects to my Xbox Every. Single. Time! Not even the official Xbox app itself does that, this app does it perfectly! Games like Mortal Kombat, Contra, and Call of duty Modern warfare multiplayer were all pretty smooth on my end. Being able to use the touchscreen as a controller is a nice touch but I’ll stick with my controller. For references, my xbox is connected via Ethernet and my IPhone SE is connected to my 5G wifi. And like I said, the games I played all ran smooth! And I’ve been able to stream to my phone every time! On the official Xbox app, it would always tell me there’s an error when connecting, and once I did connect. Frames at times would be a bit messy... With this app, and the right setup. You will not have that problem!! 10 bucks is a bit steep but if you’re like me and can’t be in the same room as your Xbox often, it is worth it! Highly recommend!
