EasyTether Full

★★★★★ Galaxy s21+ with Android 12 on Verizon. Using it daily, on several different phones over the years, so that I don't have to use the office's Internet to listen to music or watch movies at lunch. I have not had any issues using USB tethering. I do have to reauthorize the USB connection when switching from Ubuntu 20.04 to Windows 10, but I don't do that very often. I also have to use the terminal to start it on Ubuntu, but that's not an issue at all for me. It's paid for itself many times over!

★★★★★ Two words: freaking awesome. That's all I can say. Works great in Linux Mint 19 "Tara", my daily driver. Who needs to be huddled around a 5" screen (the size of my LG Stylo 3) watching YouTube, when I can watch it on my laptop connected to my HDTV? I thank the developer for this app, and I was glad to part with $10 to unlock the full version. Very well needed. I don't trust just any Wi-Fi network and I am usually in a situation where Wi-Fi is unavailable or unreliable. And it works great for Cricket Wireless customers, no paywall from them, because I'm not paying $10/month to Cricket for 8gb hard-capped hotspot, I paid $10 to Mobile Stream one time and boom, Internet anywhere. Thanks

★★☆☆☆ Disconnects and app crashes every 5 minutes on Kit Kat phone. I factory reset, cleared cache and ref lashed with fresh OS too, but still had the same problem. The phone is fine, and Planet works fine on it too, but easy tether does not run stable on it for some reason. This companies customer support is very bad. Gave me nasty and not even relevant reply. So giving them stars off for their poor customer service and for not knowing their own product. Works ok on my non-kit kat phone though. It is slow and often pauses when data at the phone is plenty good, but at least it doesn't disconnect every 5 minutes. It is usable in a pinch when no other internet is available.

★★☆☆☆ App does not work on Ubuntu distros 21+. The driver package has a dependency strictly for libssl1 when newer distros use libssl3. A temp fix is to delete version 3 and manually replace it with 1, but this can cause many problems for other system files that have 3 as a dependency, so its not worth risking. Please update the linux drivers.

★★☆☆☆ Doesn't work. USB connection fails right as you try to use it. Waste of money. Did everything to set it up correctly, and get nothing but a headache.

★★☆☆☆ Doesn't support latest Linux Mint OS, worthless for Linux users on new distro versions.
