  1. 5/5Flawless and instant

    Telling Siri to turn my base stations on or off is so amazing! All of my windows tools to do this broke and after spending an hour debugging that, I was so glad to spend $1.99 and have it taken care of instantly. Such a relief. It’s simply amazing Valve hasn’t built in this functionality to SteamVR yet…

  2. 5/5Works great, totally worth it

    The app works exactly as advertised with my SteamVR 2.0 base stations, and no setup was required beyond opening the app. Switching the base stations off is basically instantaneous; no long delay like with SteamVR itself. The only feature I’d like to see would be 3D Touch shortcuts for the home screen to turn all base stations on or off - that’s really the only way this app could get any faster for my use case. Other than that, it’s a wonderful, simple app for a specific use case; thank you dev.

  3. 5/5Great for when SteamVR bugs out

    This is a great app if you don’t want to purchase smart switches if you use a Pimax headset or if you use another tracking system that can’t power off base stations. This also works when SteamVR doesn’t actually turn of your base stations. This is worth every penny. I cannot recommend this more.

  4. 5/5Very helpful. One last thing to make it perfect.

    Everything works flawlessly and saves me the headache of setting up smart plugs to turn my base stations off. Very happy with purchase. Only thing that I really really want is Siri Shortcut support, so I can automate powering on/off the base stations through voice and shortcuts.

  5. 5/5Perfect!

    It’s rare that I’m pleasantly surprised with how simple and straightforward an app is, so I’m writing my first app review in probably a decade just to praise it! I opened it, tapped the button and my base stations instantly powered off. No scanning, pairing or other setup, no navigating menus, no ads, and no unnecessarily inflated app size (could almost fit on a floppy disk!). Just open and push button! With how software design trends have been over the past few years, I almost forgot how simple things can be!
