I use it all the time..... I just turn on VLC and then I browse for content in the app. Then press play and enjoy the experience.

There's a slight learning curve The customer service is perfect.

This app is pretty good for a 2011 release. However now it's a relic. 1. It lacks a playlist history 2. Lacks the ability to remember what was last played in the browse folder 3. Why does the iPhone and Android UI look different 4. Why does the iPhone have a monthly subscription and Android is a 1 time payment? 5. Have the ability to auto-set subtitles & audio for a series. If I don't see an improvement on these notes. Ill make an a worthy of a 2024 release and I'll open source it.
