Your PC shows up automatically on your phone over Wi-Fi; approve it once and you get play/pause, skip, seek and system volume control from across the room. It never signs in to your music service — it only relays the OS-level media controls your player already exposes, so there's no password for it to see. Free covers every control; Pro ($8.20/yr or $14.50 lifetime) removes ads and adds control of 2 PCs at once.
What holds up
- +Never signs in to your music account — relays only native media controls, no password to intercept
- +Finds your PC automatically on Wi-Fi; first pairing takes a minute, every one after is instant
- +Free tier includes every playback and volume control, not a stripped-down subset
- +$14.50 lifetime option — one payment instead of a subscription to remember to cancel
Mind the limits
- −Phone and PC must share the same Wi-Fi network — doesn't work across separate networks
- −Free tier shows ads; removing them requires the paid Pro tier
