Samsung Flow user reviews :

Better than before with WLAN connection, but why does the screen have to remain on when mirroring? SideSync could do this with the screen completely off before. It’s an unnecessary waste of battery to have the phone screen active when it’s already mirrored. The phone screen on/off button on the Smart View doesn’t really work. It just lowers the brightness on the phone screen but you can still see it’s on and what’s happening. It should be actually off.

  • Hello, Kristian Joseph Gomez. Sorry for your inconvenience. We will review your suggestion so that it can be supported in the next major update. Thank you.
I have been using SideSync for some time and am very disappointed that much of the functionallity that I have been using in the past has disappeared. This was an influence on my purchase of a Tab S4. Specifically The ability to access my phone screen (and use my phone) from my tablet is something I used alot and was hoping to be able to do now, but cannot.
