I don’t think that’s a fair way to judge a product. It’s made and marketed for sending videos from android phones to your TV, and it does that well. It doesn’t handle tasks it wasn’t built for well? That’s fine.

Useability outside of a very narrow window is abysmal on a product. That's not fair to say? I think it is. Imagine a kitchen knife that only worked with a certain cutting board.
