Extremely frustrating to use and barely functional. Keeps disconnecting and takes forever to reconnect. Can take up to 10 minutes to adjust volume or change a channel. Ridiculous product.

I purchased a 3 day free trial then if I wanted to cancel the subscription it said I could with 24 hours notice (before the end of the 3 day trial) before funds came out of my accout. It did not work with my tv so I cancelled immediately only to do find not only the $5.99 already taken out of my account but some other charge, a total of $11 for an app that didn't work but also took funds out early and nearly double the quoted app price

This is by FAR the absolute BEST TV remote app I've ever used. And I've tried many. It's very easy to connect and navigate. It took maybe 3 seconds to find my TV and connect to it completely and I was also still fully capable of casting my screen thru the app to my TV. Thank you so so so much for making such an incredibly perfect remote app!!!! I highly highly recommend.

Deserve 0 star. Worst app . It will irritate you with unskipable adds and leave you helpless. Just imagine yourself getting an important call and you are just waiting for the add to finish, just to hit the pause button. It becaomes a chase to see that wether add will finish first or the call .. obvious that call first. Highly recommended.....To DElete or don't download

Was good while it lasted. Once I upgraded it to premium, it would connect to my tv for a moment and show the remote, and then the remote would disappear. Tried uninstall and reinstall, and it doesn't help. Even tried going back to the regular non premium, and it doesn't work anymore :(

Utter rubbish..just when you download an app such as this to help you then you get nothing but obstacles all over...such as connecting to the same WiFi when you can't even go to the settings to connect...the very reason I downloaded the app 😡😡😡

Has stopped working as a remote. Cast function works but that is not what I paid a subscription for. In the contact us section of the app, it opens up an email function to send an email but doesn't include their contact email address. So annoying. I started with a month subscription to see how it went and was going to buy the unlimited option if it worked out. Now I know it doesn't work for even a month I am super glad I didn't fork out for the unlimited subscription in good faith.

Does not work. The okay button worked initially, but I git that many pop ups I decided to sign up for the free trial (my remote died middle of the night breastfeeding my 3 month old) and none of the functions work at all. Have tried emailing as I do not understand how to cancel the free trial, you don't make that easy at all, as I can't afford to pay for something that doesn't work at all.

*Amended from 5 stars* works, just about. I am happy to get ads on a free app, I'm not happy to get 5 second ads every other button press and after watching the ad you get an ad to buy premium and after you close that you have to reconnect to the TV. You load it back up and get a 5 second ad then the premium ad then you can use the remote for two clicks and rinse and repeat. I am certain other apps would be better and not as spammy. If you like 3 button presses every 20 seconds, install the app.

It's the only app that'll work with my 2015 Sony Smart TV.. I mean the only app that'll let me use more than the app buttons.. I had to start the free trial to be allowed to use the volume button and see if it'll even work.. Here's the big cash grab issue. The free trial is offered before being charged the annual fee, which is more expensive than the lifetime fee. It's an evil cash grab, I ended the free trial immediately so I could pay the lifetime fee for less instead. At least it works well!

5 star reviews are bots don't believe them this app is so bad don't even bother installing it all they care about is money they spam ads every time you press a button if that wasn't bad enough they also spam for you to subscribe to a monthly subscription it's annoying this app is pretty much unusable I've used this app for a long time I was able to change the volume for my TV now if I want to change the volume it asks for a subscription.

Happy Enough......... Have u ever lost your remote and cannot access the channels on the actual tv? Well I have. Plus I'm too lazy to get up everytime I cant find my tv remote. That would be insane! Enter the app. Works great. Have to sit thru a few seconds of ads. Its better than having to get up 10x a day to change the channel. Easy to navigate.

You supposedly have apps that can make a tv remote out of smartphones. Also, these remote apps supposedly have the ability to turn non-smart tv's into smart tv's. Well, so far I don't see it,especially for Vizio non-smart tv's. Is there any apps that can turn Vizio brand non-smart tv's into smart tv's, including not only getting the internet, but also getting the tv channels without having to install a cable TV box or anything of that matter? Can they turn the TV on and off without having any?

I like that it connects to my TV as it's not a name brand, but I don't like how it won't stay connected unless I'm constantly using it. If it's been more than a few minutes since I've adjusted the volume, or changed the channel, the app disconnects. Makes it very upsetting when the volume goes super loud between shows or apps an I struggle to have to reconnect the app (sometimes having to close and reopen the app several times before it connects) to turn the volume down.

Ok app, easy to connect as long as your on the same Wi-Fi on both devices, connected to my TV in my bedroom from the kitchen and I can change From anywhere in my home The only major complaint I have about it is that the ads pop up while you're trying to change channels constantly And you have to wait on most of them until they run so many seconds to be able to skip video. Which sucks when your trying to find something to watch on TV. It takes forever

Blah. When you're trying to start up a TV remote app, and you get advertisements for TV remote apps. 🤪 🙃 On top of that, the ads take forever to load. Might be easy to use, but hard to tell with all the interruptions. I can't even sign up for the 3 day trial without money in my Google account? It's 3 days! Should be automatic. Oh well. Got about 5 more apps to test. 👋 Also, it couldn't find the apps on my Samsung smart TV.

This app is almost worth paying for. I have only found one fatal flaw and one irritating malfunction. It has the tendency to disconnect from the TV when you need most for the darn thing to work. The fatal flaw in my opinion is that you can't turn your set on with it! Why would I pay for a remote that requires me to get up and manually turn on the set I paid for it do? I'm not paying for work I have to perform myself. Design a functioning power on button and then ask me for money; not before!
