Works well. This is a great app and the purchase for premium is worth it, the ads are overwhelming otherwise... but this is designed way better and faster than the smart things remote. I like it because I hate looking for my remote and I am always on my phone so I never lose it. Got the app for me and my wife. The widget is cool because you can control basic functions on the fly. Note: updates may cause glitches if you do not update your phone to the latest version also. I have noticed a couple other glitchy things with buttons sometimes but nothing terrible and is avoidable hence the 4 stars

Better than SmartThings app. I bought this app because there was another comment demanding me not to buy it because they offer a premium package. Well, developers need to eat, this app is way better then the default one that comes with my TV and for that alone it deserves being purchased

Struggling. I’m struggling with a rating on this app because every app I’ve ever used can’t find my tv after a day or two of use. This one has lasted about a week and it does work! However, the ads... my god the ads. By far the most annoying ad disruptions of any app ever created. About every 6-10 clicks you get an ad pop up. Typing on a keyboard? Ad every 6-10 clicks. Searching through Netflix? Ad every 6-10 clicks. I’ve only had the app for a week and will not pay $5 for ad removal until I know this app works for at least a month.

App requires permission using manufacturer’s remote. Paid for upgraded remote. When I try to use the app, a window pops up on my new Samsung qled tv that requires me to approve the app to connect to the tv. The only way to approve it is with the manufacturer’s remote. Defeats the purpose of having a remote on your phone. Once I approve it, the app works fine. But if I can’t find the other remote or say my puppy has chewed it up so it no longer functions, then this app is useless.

Worked well, now it doesn’t.. It worked great for two months. I purchased the premium pack as a replacement remote for my TV is $60, and most universal remotes don’t work well with my TV (Samsung 4K smart tv). However, one day the app stopped working. It says connect to the same network as my TV (which it is), but, it keeps saying can’t connect. I guess $5 for two months is better than nothing (why it’s not a 1star rating). I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling, no go.

Used to work really well...now it’s useless. I bought the premium version and it worked really well for over a year. I could use the app to turn on the TV, control volume and use all relevant buttons. After the last update, every time I try to use the app, there is a message on the screen that asks me to use the TV’s remote to allow my phone to connect to the TV. This app NO LONGER WORKS AS AN ADDITIONAL REMOTE. You need the original TV remote every time you want to use the app.

It works!. I purchased the premium remote to remove ads. It works perfect. At one point it stopped working and I emailed customer service. They updated the bug fixes on the app which was extremely helpful. I enjoy the remote so I rate it 5 starts! Thanks

Failed App. I downloaded this app because I cannot find my TV remote. First of all, when selecting my TV, it says please wait until the search is complete. This is when I found the first problem, it would NOT stop searching. Therefore, I could NOT select a tv. Clearly, all of the eligible televisions appeared on the screen but because it was still “searching” it would not allow me to click the tv I wanted to connect to. Second, they had spelling errors. I don’t know about you but I don’t trust anyone who can’t spell. Especially not with my money. The screen where it had me waiting FOREVER to search for eligible TV’s said “please wait until your smart tv SEACH within the network ends.” SEACH...? Where is the R? And this is supposed to be a Samsung app??? Like, what?

Good. This is a great app that serves its purpose. It is also perfect for pulling pranks on whoever is using the TV by turning it off or on and watching the person watching TV being confused and thinking their TV is hacked. I gave it 4/5 stars because it does exactly what it is made to do. It would of been 5/5 if there were no ads. There are not a lot of ads but there are some and some of the ads shown are the ones that are really hard to get out of so you have to exit out of the app so you can make the ad go away and continue to use the remote. I think this is a great app overall though. So All in all I would recommend downloading this app if you lose your remote often and are unable to watch TV until you find it. This app is mostly used by me for just doing pranks because I haven’t lost the remote yet. But you should download this app it’s fun to use easy to use and perfect for a lot of situations.

Almost useless. At first I thought this app was pretty slick. But then, after paying for the upgrade, all the shortcomings began showing. For starters the app won’t turn the tv on. You need to use your regular remote for that, which kind of defeats the purpose of paying for a remote. The watch app has no way of getting the tv to go to it’s home screen, moreover, pressing on any button other than the channel or volume results in the message that I upgrade to the premium version, which I’ve already done. And as far as “support” for this application... good luck. There is none. $5 bucks flushed down the toilet.

Just stupid!!!. The app on the phone works well, but the Apple Watch won’t work unless the app is open on your phone. Doesn’t make a lot of sense!!!!! Why would you go through the trouble of opening the app on your phone, and then opening the app app on your watch? By that time I could just go get a real Remote and use it. Just ridiculous! And you don’t find out that the watch does not work without the app open on your phone until after you purchase the app. I guess by then they really don’t care, they already have your money

Never worked for my Apple Watch. This remote works fine on my phone but I got it specifically for my watch and it has never worked. Extremely disappointed with this app. The developer sent me a message to update my review but the app still does not work well for my Apple Watch, it is slow and unresponsive. I pressed the power button and it turned off about three minutes later. I will give more stars when it works correctly.

Paid for what premium??. I’ve never written a review so this is huge for me. I paid for premium to eliminate the annoying constant ads and to eliminate every 24 hours having to delete and reinstall the app because it tells me to reconnect to WiFi when it is in fact connected. I would like my money back for the past 3 months I’ve paid for premium. It’s an ok app if you do not purchase premium. I’ll definitely change my rating if this issue is corrected.

The ads are ridiculous. I love the ap itself but these ads are driving me crazy. After roughly every 3rd or 4th push of a button, it plays another ad. I was trying to type in my email address and like 6 ads popped up. If I had even a pinch less patience, I probably would have thrown my phone at the TV because that’s how frustrating the amount of ads is.

Connects with 2 adds in 10 seconds. Legitimately connects to Samsung television using WiFi and it is simple to connect. However it is not useful at all; I went to click the first button and instead of sending a command I got an add. Then the button I was pushing didn’t even end up working after the add, it said command unavailable on the tv. I moved tabs in the app to attempt a different command, this is now three clicks on the screen, so the app sent another add. Now a pop up would be one thing, full fledged video adds though with a countdown on the skip button? Really not worth the users time to struggle with using this app simply to grease the programmers pockets with add revenue.

Worked At First; Now Seeking Alternative. At first set up, it worked fine. Now, it continually says it can’t connect to the TV. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled more times than I can count to eek out a few clicks of the remote before it drops the connection. I really liked that it had Apple Watch support since I always know that is, and the kids love to hide the remote. I have good internet, so the constant drop out is beyond annoying. I haven’t been able to fix it or figure out what’s causing it. If it would just STAY CONNECTED it would be a great app. But, for now, I’m looking for an alternative.

The mass abundance of ads make this unusable. I was able to connect to my TV with no problem. The tour was a bit annoying and you cannot skip it. However what turns me away from this app is the fact that there is an ad on every three button prices. Imagine if I have to type something. Because of this it doesn’t make me want to pay either. If there are so many ads within the free version, what data am I giving away in the paid version. The idea is that when you pay is supposed to be better. However, the free version has so many ads, I’m afraid I’m going to lose my money paying for it and it is not worth it. For now I’ll Take out my good old HTC phone and use the infrared through there And remove this app immediately.

Not worth it. It’s not worth it. It’s really slow, and the worse part is. You have to connect the remote and allow it access each time you turn it on. You can’t even exit the apt and do other stuff on your phone, because if you try to go back, the app requires you once again to allow it access. So don’t get comfortable or exit the app. You might have to get off the couch each and every single time to manually allow it access. Super annoying and inconvenient.

Version 3.5. I have the premium package has worked fine till yesterday when I updated now it will not open I click on the app and it starts to open then goes back to the home screen what gives are there still bugs in the app thanks

Paid $10 dollars...no ads...but glitchy. I like the Apple Watch integration and Siri Functionality, but sadly the trackpad tab doesn’t function (what I would have used as my default), the widget I paid extra for can’t locate my tv, thus doesn’t function, and the Apple Watch app works but is slow. It would be great if Samsung just made the app but I realize that won’t happen. It the developer worked out the bugs and dropped the all inclusive price to $6, did away with the confusing and unnecessary premium vs custom they could sweep the whole market and I would give it 5 stars.

Ridiculous advertising. I wish i could give negative stars. Apple should do something about apps that say they are free but have ridiculous level of advertising. This one shows mature content advertisements on ever 5-10 button clicks. So if u want to watch tv and change channels or volume levels, the app goes to completely useless advertisements that have mature content and u are forced to wait 5 secs before closing the advertisements. So much for making you pay 4.99 to buy the premium app.

Works til after you purchase the premium. This was working for about 3 days, now it’s not working at all. There was a bunch of ads, and it got to the point where you either paid to get rid of the ads or uninstalled. I paid for the premium and now it won’t turn on my tv at all! This app was good in the beginning, now it’s just absolute crap! I wouldn’t recommend this garbage app to anyone! The same thing happened to my boyfriend when he downloaded the app too, so it’s not just me! Devs, I would like a refund, but I highly doubt that will happen

Terrible. It keeps disconnecting every now and then! Before updating to the latest version, it used to be OK, I used to just search the TV again and it would be fine. But since the recent update, I can’t get it connected at all. DO NOT UPDATE IT! Not only many features that were available before are now available to premium users (even though I have purchased the app but they have managed to define other premium accounts to take more money!), it is absolutely useless right now since it does not get connected to the TV at all. TV and router are the same, but the stupid update has ruined the connection.

I hate apps like this. The app works I will give that but I just hate that everyone who makes something great has to be so money hungry because the fact is you could’ve released a free app that controls your TV but no you wanted to create a premium version and I thought to myself who the hell is going to buy a premium version of a TV remote when you could just go by the remote from LG itself but I’ve seen a lot of people in the comments by it and it’s actually stupid but what made me give this app a one star is like I stated before a premium that is totally unnecessary I pressed the home button to try to change to HDMI one so that I could play Warframe and immediately I get a pop-up talking about upgrade to premium and I’m just sitting there speechless like why should I have to pay premium to use arrows on the remote for my phone this whole money hungry thing is very stupid you can just as easily ask for donations everybody who makes apps is so money hungry I remember when I was a child there were free apps you could play apps free and there was no hassle but this is truly ridiculous do not buy the premium and do not download this app

Nope. When I first got this app it worked fairly well but there was a ton of ads. Every 5-7 clicks an ad would appear so I decided to purchase it for the five dollars. Honestly it only made the app worse it’s constantly glitching and at times won’t even connect to my tv. I thought the purchase would unlock special features but there isn’t even a fast forward option. Often times the app closes itself without warning it’s extremely frustrating. I would not recommend purchasing or even keeping it. I found another remote app that works without all the nonsense this one brings.

2.5. I wanted to give it a 3 but I just can’t . The amount of ads that pop up is ridiculous. Literally every 3-5 clicks, you can’t even adjust your volume without running into 2. Remote functions great, this would be a 5 star app without all the ads . They don’t have to be eliminate them but they need to change how frequent they appear.

It works BUT. It works but the non stop ads are very annoying and I definitely don’t want to pay $9.99 for a premium version of something that sometimes doesn’t work. The ads pop up after you hit any button one time. So you’ll put the volume down once and boom an ad, X out of it then click the button two-three more times and boom another ad. Extremely annoying!

Hey. I love this love this is the best app I’ve ever had on my phone I can control my Siri anything I give us 500 far if I can what is this song is seven minutes from now I would definitely recommend this app for people as it was to download this app for this they can’t find them on my thinking is this app

Money hungry. A subpar app from a money hungry company. I don’t mind a few ads on a free app. But to have an ad every single time you touch the screen is absolutely ridiculous. I was trying to type my Netflix password and it took me over 15 minutes! Literally every single time I pressed anything, an ad pops up. I deleted the app and went spend the $10 on an actual remote. Never again. Their goal is to annoy you with ads so much that you’ll buy premium or make the same amount of money (maybe more) off of you if you don’t get premium. Waste of time. I have better things to do than to spend over 15 minutes typing an email address.

Too many ads. This app has more ads than is acceptable for a TV remote app. Period. The $9.99 price to remove ads and let you add a little more customization to the app is way too high. I think a lot of people would be much more interested in buying premium if the price was either $.99 or $1.99. The developer would make much more from the higher volume of purchases than they are now with ads subsidizing the fewer people buying the $9.99 package. This is basic economics that they still don’t understand even with all of the negative reviews saying exactly the same thing.

Great, EXCEPT. This is a really great app except that there’s an add every 5-10 seconds. Really wish I was exaggerating, here. There were no less than 3 Final Fantasy adds in the time it took me to navigate through my input sources and scroll over to the app on the TV that I wanted to launch. While I appreciate that the developers need to earn money for their work and that equates to ads, I’d like to be able to actually experience the functionality of the app before deciding whether to pay for premium.

Works as advertised, but ads are annoying. The remote works really well, however the advertisements (which pop up often) always appear while I’m pressing buttons, so I often accidentally tap the ads when I don’t mean to. It would be a lot better if the ads were always on the screen as a banner or something, instead of popping up at the worst times.

Doesn’t turn my tv on anymore!. I’ve had this app for a few months now & it has worked wonders. Paid for the premium version bc those ads were annoying. But after having it for a few months now it won’t connect to turn my tv on. I had it on a few hours ago, turned it off & now it won’t turn back on with my app. Every time I try sending a report to the maker it says I don’t have a valid email but it is valid soooo🤷🏻‍♀️

Works fine, too many adds. It connect to my tv in the matter of seconds, but after about five or six taps on the screen you have an add. This gets really annoying especially when your trying to type something using the little arrows and okay button. I do know that you can buy the premium pack, but five dollars is a bit much for a normal remote. I do also wish that it came with a keyboard outside of the premium pack (I only got this for a keyboard), but they don’t have that so you still will have to pay 5 dollars. I was debating if I should give this 2 or 3 stars and I decided to give this a three since it worked perfect but I really only had a problem with the adds and the absence of a keyboard.

Trash App. Worked for the first day which was nice and convenient but kept saying connecting the next day...of course, when you click on the “Premium Icon” it takes you to the site where you can purchase the app for $4.99 bucks??? What’s the guarantee that the app will work flawlessly after I spend my money??? Like many other apps, certain, basic features, as the app stated it’s a free app, should work and if one wants extra features, buy the premium. Poor business execution. Deleted.

Nope.. UPDATE: got a message from the developer that most of the issues were fixed and was asked to reinstall. I did so and I couldn’t get past the connection screen, it kept asking me to make sure the Roku streaming stick is within the same network. Now, it’s possible that the app won’t connect to a Samsung TV with a Roku device, but I am not willing to disconnect my Roku every time I want to control my television, and the app didn’t give me the option otherwise to connect to the television only (though I think that’s stupid that I’d have to do so). Took a star away for my pain and suffering and added a thumbs down 🤷🏻‍♀️👎👎👎👎 This remote worked great... until it stopped working. After about a month, I would try to turn the tv on or off or mess with the volume, and it wouldn’t connect. I tried resetting my WiFi, deleting and reinstalling the app, disconnecting my device and reconnecting. I even bought the upgrade that allowed multiple TVs, even though I shouldn’t have had to do so (when I deleted the tv I was using via the app and tried to reconnect, the app told me I had to upgrade to use multiple TVs... even though there wasn’t a tv connected). This app turned out to be crap and a waste of money 👎👎👎

Hassle to use. I mean it does what it’s advertised to do but in a crappy way. I was testing it out to see if it actually worked and it did by shutting off the TV after trying to turn my TV back on a pop up came up to tell me that the power button was behind a paywall. I closed the app and it reset. Was able to turn my tv back on after spamming the hell out of the power button. I can see why people hate Samsung remotes now.

Remote works fine, a little unhappy after the updates.. When I first got the remote it all worked fine. After a couple updates certain features stopped working until it didn’t work at all. Stopped using it for a while after that. Decided to try again at a certain point and it worked fine. Was mostly just upset that I had paid for the upgraded premium-version of the app at the time which had none of the ads, and after updates I’m the bottom of the “tier’d” list and can’t even do things like use the Netflix button anymore, just the basic buttons on the first screen.

Here is my opinion... So when I downloaded the app it was telling about how it works and what it does and stuff. It goes to a connecting system so I can connect my TV to the remote. Something shows up on my tv and it says something like “Do you want to connect Tv Remote?” I press yes and on my phone it says it’s not connected bc the WiFi it probably not the same. I check if the WiFi is connected on my tv. It wasn’t connected to I fixed it and when I tried it again it still wasn’t working. I have tried these a couple of times or like a few and it wasn’t working at all. And every time I tried to click on one of the buttons like right, left, up, down, etc. the same ad shows up and it way too many that I have to delete the app. I know what you are thinking. Why couldn’t you just have used your actual remote. It’s broken and just in case if we get a new one and we break it again. Therefore, I would not recommend getting this app I may work for you but I didn’t work for me. I would rather use another app than this one.

Read before you buy!. I wish I would have taken my own advice! I bought the app and then realized I’m having the same experience as so many others. The app works on my phone just fine, other than the fact that I have to “restore my $4.99 purchase” just about everyday. The app works on my watch, only if I first open it on my phone, which completely defeats the point of using the watch app, which, for me, was the reason I spent the money. That and the adds were out of control. Don’t waste your money!

Could Be Sweet. Bought the app for the watch integration and it 3% works. I give it 3% because I turn the volume down and then literally probably 45 seconds later the volume on my TV shoots down to zero. Same thing for play/pause. It’s like it occasionally works, but when it does it shows up to the party waaaay too late. Please fix this because I can see myself loving the app (like 5 stars loving the app) when my watch works.

Great App. This has been the best remote control app I’ve used so far i paid for the one time premium a year ago and i definitely think its worth the money im constantly losing my dang tv remote and this app makes it so that i don't even care where the remote is it’ll show up somewhere eventually lol Only issue I've had is that when i use the volume button repeatedly it sometimes gets stuck and turns my volume all the way down and I'm forced to close the app

Reach to the coffee table and pick up the remote and save $10 instantly!. Connecting couldn’t even be accomplished. Tv kept asking to pair yet the app just never did then I think I’m good to go and after hitting the volume button boom! Download the premium version for such luxuries. No. I can even try it to see if I would even find it useful I’m not paying anything especially something so sneaky about it. If you want to sell a $10 app fine, that’s honorable enough to create a app and except money no problems there but to have a free version that does absolutely nothing? You and every app like you is a drain on the entire system and for that reason alone I deleted it as fast as I downloaded it and I’ll find one alittle more honest. It’s 2020 people are tired of scams

Would not recommend for constant use. I get that any developer will need some sort of income for their app, but the amount of how many ads come up every time I want to lower or raise the volume is insane. I would recommend anyone who thinking about getting this app to not get it. Seriously just lowering the volume by 10 levels I got five ads that have the tiniest x to close them. To the developer, lower the amount of how much ads come up and people will use this more, just the amount of ads made me never want to shell over 10 dollars to you.

Entitlement is the only reason this app doesn’t have 5 stars.. I felt compelled to give this app a five star review because of all the idiots complaining about paying for an app when they could just use the remote instead. That being said, I like how modern this app feels and the BIG feature of being able to use Siri Shortcuts. However...I haven’t been able to get the app to connect to my TV yet. It sees all the devices on the network so I’m chalking it up to user error. Once I’m able to test and see if this app meets my needs I’ll gladly pay.

Awesome. If you can afford the one time fee, this app is totally worth it. Price is relatively low, a 5.99 and 9.99 option. It connected instantly to my TV. It’s very user friendly IMO. A section to select any app your TV has. Some apps you can use the control pad section like a mouse. Highly recommend!

Future updates. So I’ve have had this app for a couple of months now with the premium options and so far for a smart Samsung tv remote it’s ok one big downfall from this & can be easily fix I think is the constant crashes of the app other than that I really enjoy using this app and would recommend for a future update wish there was a landscape mode for iPad support

Barely works. I have never written a review for an app before. This app brings such irritation that I decided to write one. It will work sometimes. Majority of the time it just doesn’t. I paid for the premium version at one point but I still get constant ads any time I try to use a button. When I first open the app it looks like it’ll work fine, but as soon as you hit a button, you either get an ad or “no connection”. I have to keep reopening the app after about 5-6 button presses and it’s beyond annoying.

Issue with connection and ads.. For me whenever a button is pressed an advertisement will play for about 15 seconds, I think thats strange since this a remote control. Though the TV does have unremovable adds to begin with when trying to go to apps... Anyway on my Tv it will ask to give my phone permission, I click yes then it disappears. Then when I attempt to click a button on the remote an ad plays. Nothing changes for the TV and it becomes a loop. Im just annoyed how when the ad appears you cant use the remote for a couple seconds, it should be on some place maybe at the tops or sides of the screen? That would be more convenient.

Works well …but recently can’t find TV. This app was wonderful for a while but suddenly it stopped working and it appears as “ cannot find the TV”. Its status says it must be on the same Wi-Fi network. My TV is connected over ethernet and not using Wi-Fi but it’s always been that way, but now it seems to not be able to find it. Advice anyone?

Doesn’t Work. It couldn’t connect to my Samsung TV. It doesn’t work.

Ads. Too many ads

Conn. Waste

B. Lots of advertisements Hardly able to use app

Not the best. It is very laggy and there are too many ads then there should be. I will press one button and an add pops up.

Good when it works. Regular says I haven’t bought it when I have. Constantly have to redown load it

Sir. Doesn’t work

Help menu. Non existent and a 100% failure.

Does EVERYTHING!!. Best app so far! It has perfect quick access widget, fully working app and even allows Siri Shortcuts to build into HomeKit scenes making it incredibly versatile. I did pay the $15 odd bucks but hell considering how much it does and how well it works I was happy to pay it and would do it again. My only coMplaint is the Apple Watch app is really slow to connect so it dosnt get used much becos of that. In saying that I can just call out to my HomePod Siri to run normal functions based off the shortcuts and that’s way quicker. If for nothing else; get it for the widget!!!!

Sheet. Sheet remote

Does not work. Had to buy it to get to sink and then it does not work.

Apple Watch fail. Upgraded to premium and Apple Watch still not supported

Ali. Can’t get it to work😐😕

Best so far. With pop adds ajoined too it’s programming the royalities from popups will be more beneficial too the company profits.

No good. It worked great the first time. After that it couldn't find the tv. Useless...

TV Remote. Downloaded the app, and connection was made automatically, hassle free, and easy to use. Thanks

This is good. Super easy to sign in and works like a charm.

Scam!. Paid for the app and it worked twice, now it says it’s connected to the tv and won’t work!

Both useless and annoying. Not only it does not work whatsoever; it also pops ads with nearly every touch thus creating a new functional paradigm: Both Useless and annoying

Useless DONT DOWNLOAD. I’ve now paid for 2 different version both are trash. Don’t waste your time. Least affective app I’ve ever used

Unimpressed.. When you pay $3500 for a tv and the coordinating sound bar, then have to pay for the app. Riiiiiiight.

Won’t connect and paid for premium!. Tried everything wont connect to my wifi and I paid for premium🤦🏻‍♀️

This product is waste. Waste of money and time. Don’t buy. Can’t change channels and switch off/on tv. Can’t return either

Ads and crippled functionality…. $26 to get basic functionality without ads? That’s pitiful :(

Meh. Just charge for us to use the app. Its annoying.

Does not work with my Tizen “smart” tv.. why would i pay for all of this?. :(

Pretty...USELESS. Looks pretty, but does nothing. Finds devices OK, but can’t connect to ANYTHING!!! Supposed to work with Hisense Smart TV, which we have.

Worst. Fraud app, doesn’t even connect. Please don’t use this app not worth it

Doesn’t work. This app doesn’t work on the Apple Watch.

1 star. Not working even said that just volume and mute for free but not working💀💀

Worked until upgrade. Seems to be the norm it works the adds annoy u so u by the premium and it stops working steer clear

Sony remote. Useless

Terrible. I hate this worthless excuse for an app, the absolute worst tv remote app I’ve ever come across. It constantly disconnects from my tv forcing me to reconnect it again, and the money hungry developers of this app throw irrelevant boring ads at you every 10 seconds when you’re using the app. Do not get this app I hate it and so will you

Ms. purchased but not working waste of money

Does not work. Just paid for the extra feature to turn the TV on because I’d lost the remote and cannot find the on button on the frame …. only to find I can’t use the on off button until the tv is on. Please return my payment. Would have been nice to know that before I paid. Thanks

This app is rubbish do not waste your money on this.. 😪

Full of ads. Full of ads So annoying

Ur app is useless. Can not connect to tv please fix problem

Doesn’t connect.. It looks like a good product but does not connect to the TV. It says it has to be on same internet network but it is on the same network. It correctly identifies the name of the TV but not connect.

Review. Works excellent, get bombarded by advertisements though That’s why the 3 stars

Dumb app. I can not believe you have to pay to be able to turn the tv on now, stupid app

What an absolute rip off. This is the most infuriating app I have ever used. Unless you buy the premium version of this app which believe it or not doesn’t come with the $800 tv you just bought, you will get an add every few clicks. I have no other option but to use this app as the tv remote broke and it is honestly one of the most annoying things in the world and the absolute biggest rip off.

Works when it works. Paid the extra a while ago and when it works it works well. But many times it won’t connect to the tv even though the wifi is on. You can sit there for 20min trying to turn it on. Sometimes even trying to turn it back on only a few minutes after you turned it off!! My tv often has updated, but you don’t get updates on the remote app. I don’t think the app has ever updated in over three years!!?? At least it has never prompted me to.

Hopeless. Waste of time doesn’t sync with the new smart Samsung tv

More adds than television. I would rather be stuck on a foreign channel on level 100 volume than use this app. It’s set so you press so many buttons (not many) and a video-add will come on. Constantly. It’s infuriating. Who the hell wants to pay to use a phone-remote for no adds? (As tempting as it is at the time to not watch 30 adds just for channel surfing) I’ll just pay for some batteries.

No alpha keyboard. Should have listened to to the reviews. Was looking for an interface to navigate the internet better so I could stream digital radio through my new soundbar via the TV. No curser control or alpha keyboard despite paying.

Rip off. This is a complete rip-off you have to buy more expensive version just to turn the television on and off.

Worst apps. Can’t use it at all

Pairing/Connection is impossible to Hisense Smart TV. Unable to connect iPhone SE remote app to Hisense Smart TV

Painful to use. Unstable and with nonsense pop up messages making the up impossible to use.

Doesn’t worth the money at all. I paid for te premium + version because i have a new samsung tv and an apple watch i thought it would be a great addition to control my tv system but after wasting my money the app doesn’t even work on my watch and half of the option offer in the app can’t be use in the phone a have to use my remote soo what’s the point ... all that combined with an app that bug and doesn’t respond well !👎🏽 maybe a nice app to control your volume but dont waste your money go with the free version

Terrible Remote. Terrible app, won’t connect to the TV after the first use. Every couple of times of pressing a button such as the volume an ad pops up, so try and change the volume up or down 6 times you will have to close 3 pop up ads. Pretty much useless unless you want to pay for premium.

Very Bad App with no sense. This app was made in a very bad way. Why does a remote have so many ads ? It’s not even reasonable to ask to verify the app with a remote what if you lost the remote and that’s why you have the app? The people who made this app didn’t even think properly

Terrible. Doesn’t even work.. I didn’t want this remote. Apple automatically replaced my previous remote with this one after updating to iOS 15. Took away half the functionality. Please fix!!!!

WASTE OF MONEY. App not working

Waste of money. Stupid App

Pretty good. This app is pretty good, but not the best

Does not work. Cannot Connect Any Devices Waste is time.

Not working. Wasted my money upgrading to premium

Bad app. Ads every sec

Keyboard. Is there any chance to add a keyboard in the app? So every time I need to search something on YouTube or other apps I can write with a keyboard? Would make things way faster and easier

Ads. Ads pop up every 3 sec very dumb

I dont know .... Bought the prenium the app is now opening on my watch but none of the fonction works it only work on my phone

Horrible. Too much ads

Too Many Ads. Simply too many ads - almost makes the app unworkable.

Missing features. I enjoy this app except after paying for the premium version where it said there was a widget with the premium version, I can’t find a widget to add to my phone

Worse app, too much ads. There is ads every 2 seconds. This app just can’t be used

Syncing Stuck in Loop. Not sure what the deal is here - just purchased this remote and I got it working for a couple hours and now it’s not syncing It froze my tv, where I had to physically unplug it to turn off. I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled but it no longer is finding my TV. 😡 Wanting a refund!!!

This app isn’t working!. This app started working so well but after a few days, it stopped working and started saying “tv isn’t found” even though I was trying so hard to connect it. Please fix this.

Stupid!. Just wasted my money paying for an app I can’t use!! You need your remote to allow permission but I have no remote!!!! If I had a remote I wouldn’t need the app. DUH

Basic Functionality Doesn’t work. This app just connects to the TV and plays ads. You can’t even change the channel.

Bait and switch. I’d rather know your product is going to cost $ upfront vs advertising it as free when it only has a very minor functionality for it; with the minor functionality being absolutely riddled with advertisements

Unreal Ads!!. Just couldn’t believe how bad the ads were! Absolutely no way I could handle the free version. Complete waste of time!

Don’t waste your time. This was good for like a month then it updated and changed a bunch of features. I bought the upgrade version then it updated again only to find out half of the features were behind a paywall again things a scam trying to get you to keep buying features that should already be included

Review. Love the touch pad!!

Free version is completely unusable. Ads every 5 taps or so. Crazy.

Didn’t think it through.... Idiots. It won’t let me pair with the TV unless I confirm using a remote connected to the TV. But if I had a remote connected to the TV, I wouldn’t need the app.

No help from developer. I emailed asking for help to the developer of this app since this paid app that i purchased is bot working. It has been a week and no reply at all. Not to mention i was asking refund as i purchased 2 packages by mistake. I needed a refund for the basic package since i want the premium package for this. Because of this, i just want my money back. Email i sent monday, june 15, 2020 Please help me with this app, i purchased the premium package but it does not do anything with the tv. My tv is connected with the same wifi as my phone and watch. If this cnt be resolved, please refund me my money back Do not remove the text below: Inside: 101 Version: 3.3.5

Brutal app. Don’t bother. It doesn’t work.

Wasted Money. Doesn't work most of the time. Swipe to navigate never works. Never connects to Wi-Fi takes way too long and when it does it just disconnects had to pay $11.99 twice and still doesn't work. Not impressed at all! Don't waste your money!!

Bad. application does not work well and works very poorly with the watch. I do not advise

Repeat. Every time you open the app it asks mirroring like 5 times, and this is the paid version

Ads every second. So you pay idk how much money for a smart tv and then you gotta pay extra for a smart remote? If you don’t pay you’re getting ads every time you put the volume up so forget it.

Free digital. That is amazing

Doesn't work.. Signed up for premium service. This app is poorly designed and does work.

Délais +++. L’app connecte avec ma smart TV mais il y a un délais considérables lorsque j’appuie sur une commande et l’activation de celle-ci sur ma TV... très désagréable. Lorsque j’appuie sur l’icône de Netflix, ça ne redirige même pas sur l’app Netflix. Pire 14$ investit.

Random payments. They charged me for a yearly membership even though i did not have the app downloaded

Upset. When I opened it, It didn’t connect with my tv. This app showed my tv that’s all.

Ad Simulator. Ad pops up every 5 taps. Absolute garbage look elsewhere

Very good app!!. Didn’t like it before because of the adds but they updated it and its much better now! There’s hardly any adds now😊 Works great!

Keeps disconnecting. The app keeps disconnecting from my tv which defeats the purpose of having the remote on my phone and I paid for the upgraded version.

Ads run way too often. You can’t even type half of a word into any search without it interrupting you with an ad... took me 3 minutes just to search a video on YouTube...

Constant ads. Terrible app. Features don’t work and constant apps

Not working on apple watch. Payed for the full pack just to use on my apple watch (series 6 - phone & watch ios updated) but not working on the watch. Would have not purchased if I knew in advance!!!

Wasted money. It doesn’t work and won’t let me make any changes in thr screen after upgrading to premium. Wasted my money

To many adds. Adds make the app useless. Pop up every 2 min

Theives. I bought the full version and nothing changed! Shame!

Ads after paying. Why am I paying $20 for ads?

Don’t even waste your time looking at this app. ShitApp so full of adds you can’t even use it

Keeps turning TV back on. Every time i try to turn my TV off, the app keeps turning it back on. And I paid for premium too.... I will probably try to get my money back since this is a really bad bug.

In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

This is a Good Pick — if not, for all the Prices going up & up while also Subscription Confusion⁉️. This is a Good Pick — I’m just sick & Tired of the Subscription Headaches Along with the cost of these is getting way on up there & If You Love It, Great — if not, forgetting to unsubscribe⁉️👍🏼‼️👍🏼⁉️

Frustrating even after premium. I have an updated ad-free version but it still doesn’t work properly. It doesn’t respond and exits every other time I pick up my phone to change the volume, and I have to reopen the app and wait for it to reconnect. In the instances it doesn’t shut down, it responds slowly and the whole thing just really tests my patience. But I paid for it and feel like I have to keep using it.

App worked great until I bought premium. This app was fine until I bought the premium version. Now it has a pop up that says “mirroring required enable airplay...” 30-40 times before I can continue to use the app. Once it stops popping up the app works without issue but I shouldn’t have to close out a pop up 40 times with every use of a paid app. I requested a refund because this is not worth the cost.

BEWARE THIS IS A PAY APP. This has got to be a joke !!! They insinuate that when you download the app in the beginning you will be able to control your tv immediately, THIS ISN'T THE CORRECT FACTS. Download the app and get it hooked to your tv and immediately nothing works on the app with out purchasing their $5.99 upgrade. This is a complete rip off. Apple should take this app off of the app store now. DONT DOWNLOAD THIS APP UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY $5.99 TO DO ANYTHING ON IT !!!! If I could rate it a zero I would .

Many things I can I do. The way it is set up, I can’t do much besides turn it on and off, volume up and down, and a few other things. Many things I cannot do. I’m not sure if it’s set up right.

Widget. I like the idea of the ON/OFF widget but i also really liked when the widget was bigger so I didn’t have to go back to the app to control the tv I just had to swipe to the widget page. Can you please add back that widget size it was very convenient.

Too many ads. App works great. Controls my t.v perfectly. I would rate it 5 stars but.....every 4-5 clicks and a add pops up . It’s super annoying if your trying to surf channels or anything. I understand they want to make money. But maybe a add or two you have to watch before the app works or something but not during

Super easy setup. It found all my devices immediately. A single phone tap and connection approval on tv remote had it working right away.

Samsung remote that doesn’t work w/ Samsung TV. I have a 75” Samsung smart tv that this app recognizes but never connects to. The app shows all of my entertainment devices (2 Roku’s, sonos speakers, nvidia shield, and fire TV) including my Samsung tv but never connects. It says it isn’t compatible with my tv yet but I could still control the audio but when I try to mute the tv it says it’s not connected and tries to reconnect. The only thing this app does well is display ads while not doing much of anything else.

Good Remote. Does everything I want, pop ups are annoying but I didn’t want to pay for the premium version when I’m using this app until my new remote comes in. If my dog keeps chewing up the remotes in our house might have to make this app my go to moving forward!

Hate this app. Don’t purchase . Doesn’t work even if you pay for “premium” new update is more of a downgrade unless you spend even more money than you already did ..... buying an actual extra remote to have on hand will probably cost less and be more efficient Update: deleted app and reinstalled like the developer recommended and now I can’t restore my purchase and have to deal with ads

Update is wonderful! Thank you!. The new update is amazing—it topples all other remote applications. All the features work. It is far superior to the smarter things native app for Samsung. (I have Samsung TV TU7000).

And then it was updated.. I thought this was a fine app. It saved us on the regular when the remote was lost. Since the update it is not functional - can’t get to the main smart hub at all. I already purchased the Premium, and now it seems there are two more upgrade options, but’s it’s not even clear if an upgrade will make the app functional. This has not been an upgrade. It has been a serious downgrade.

App rarely works. I would totally spend money to buy this app if it actually connected to my tv! I can rarely get it to do anything… it always says tv is not found when the tv is on and working right in-front of me. It works 1x out of 10… I’ve had this app for the longest time and I’m constantly fighting for it to work. Disappointed.

ads every few clicks. I didn’t buy premium, just needed basic function. First time I wanted to switch apps, I click right to move 3x and up pops an app, 3 more clicks another add. The app I wanted was at the end of the list- I had to watch 4 adds before I got to and could select the app. I’ll look for something else.

Stopped working. Worked well for a while, even purchased a premium version and then it stopped working. I figured it was a software update issue, so I stopped using it for a while, but when I went back to use again it seemed to triple the amount of ads and wouldn't let me restore my purchase.

Very god d sap. Very good app. Needs one thing more to be great. Need a button for close captions (CC). I have a Samsung 65” curved screen tv and everything so far works for me. So easy to use that I’m putting it on my wife’s phone. Will use this as my remote and save the original remote as a back up. This app is easier to use

Ads are so persistent u can’t even get thru setup. Ads are so persistent u can’t even get thru setup. Who knows if it works. I spent 20 minutes fighting the pop-ups and when nothing seemed to work I didn’t have the patients to continue. Com’on people use your GREEDY heads, if you overload your users so badly out of the gates how could u ever get them to like it enough they will buy it. My guess is it doesn’t work and it is a ploy to bombard unsuspecting users with ads.

H and J Series Such As JS7500 Series Not Supported ! Too Many Ads!. The Developer is very misleading. The app doesn’t support smart TV from 2015 up to N version of 2018. If you have the H OR J SMART TV such as JS7500 series. It won’t work. It will tell you it doesn’t fully support your TV, that you can change volume. The remote will not turn on your TV as stated. May only turn on a few Samsung with a rare OS you probably don’t have. Ads will break your device.

Won’t connect. I’ve used this app for almost two years and now it’s saying my TVs not on… even tho it is. So I erase the tv from the app to re connect it and it says I can’t add more than one tv without paying for the custom feature so I’m like whatever and buy it… now it’s been trying to find a tv on my network to connect to for an hour and it can’t find my tv 😃 waste of money

Needs a complication. Watch app is great but not being able to launch it from a watch face is a huge issue in usability. Edit: dev said they are adding it. Dev is awesome. Review updated.

Purchased but still getting Ads!!!. I purchased the app but still getting annoying Ads ! This is upsetting

Does not consistently work. When this app works, it works very well. Just know that it won’t work more than a few days before it breaks. A few days later it partially works(missing app like Disney+), then a few days later it works wonderful. I wish they would simply stop messing with whatever they are doing. A consistent experience would be great and would deserve a 5 star rating.

Money grubbing, greedy developers!!. Absolutely ridiculous. Ads every couple of presses and constant harassment to buy the “premium” version for a stupid amount of money. Are you kidding me??? I immediately deleted it. I’d rather spend 20 minutes looking for a misplaced remote than give a cent to these money grubbing developers (and yes, I do buy apps - WHEN they’re worth it!)

GET THIS APP!!!. I rate this app 4-5 because this is GREAT app but it has so many adds which is super annoying but other than that AMAZING!!! It connects to my tv super easy and I totally recommend this app for when you loose your remote like I did. My brother did something with it and it is still lost.

Apple Watch App Not Working on Premium Version. Impressed with the app on iPhone but not able to use Apple Watch app despite getting premium version. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling with no luck. Would not have purchased if I had known. UPDATE: New version now works with Apple Watch but not immediately responsive. Takes pretty long for requests to reach the tv. Stick with the TV app.

Not working after new update. This app was working well before the update, with this update my tv doesn’t connect with the control where I click the WiFi and connect it doesn’t allow me to do anything, kind of frustrating because I bought the premium no adds for like $6.99

Paid the premium for nothing. I paid the premium so I could use my Apple Watch and it doesn’t even work it will let me turn the tv on and off but that is it. Was told it reinstall the app but still nothing. Kind of a waste of money. Look for something else if you wanna be able to use the watch features.

Web browser. Not sure what to rate this app because I’m not sure if I can use it with my web browser nothing moves the mouse? Do you have to buy the premium version for that . And the ads are overwhelming for this only being a remote app.

Change to another app. Woke up today(I have the “premium” version of this app and it doesn’t let me click on anything. I click the OK button and it just vibrates. I WANT A REFUND....

Watch App has issues. I upgraded the subscription thinking it would unlock the features of the watch app, but it appears to just be a bug where the only functional controls in the UI are to turn my Samsung TV off and buttons for streaming services. Support emails keep bouncing back. I feel like I got scammed.

Nice app BUT. For the life of me I can’t figure out why there’s no power on/off button on the Apple Watch every other button but power when I’m half asleep and can’t find the remote I need to cut the tv off forget everything else ijs

Love the app but.... This app is amazing when it wants to work would give it all five stars but recently it’s been having problems finding my Samsung tv both the tv and the app are updated used to always work now it’s more times not working than it is working

horrible. it doesn’t serve its purpose. it rarely ever actually connects to the tv. and the few times it does it only lasts about 10 minutes before the app glitches and you have to reconnect again and again. You get ads about every five clicks, so try changing the volume or the channel without wanting to chuck your phone against the TV. very annoying.

Review. I have more problems with this new update then the last one. Less access to smart tv. Even tho I pay for the upgraded version

Useless. Like all remote apps I’ve tried this one too have one severe limitation that makes these apps useless to me...the ability to turn on the tv from the app. TV must be on already to use the “power on/off” button on the app. I, like most people, don’t keep the TV on 24/7. Having to grab the traditional remote to turn on the tv renders the app useless as I’m already now holding the tv remote. Try again...

Paid version doesn’t work. I bought this to use as a second remote. It does not work without having the first remote to allow this app to access the TV, every single time I use it. This app is really useless to me. I do not recommend it.

Nice but needs work. It worked well for a couple of days but now we have to constantly go to the TV and allow the app which is not very convenient. It also has issues reconnecting after not using it for some hours. If that wasn’t the case it would be a great app

Don’t use unless you have to. The free version is ridiculous. I understand there was going to be ads but these were so over kill you got an add after clicking the channel every 5 times. I purchased to get away from the adds and worked for only a day. Now it won’t connect just sits there thinking. Total waste of money and wouldn’t have purchased if my dog didn’t eat the remote in the first place.

Don’t waste your money!. Worst app I have ever paid for! Everything worked great at first. I was so thrilled that I wanted to make my life easier and be able to operate my tv through my Apple Watch, so i paid the $6 to get the version that would let me do so. Now nothing works. I can’t do anything with my phone or my watch. Either fix your app, or give me back my money.

To many ads, but helpful in a pinch. Ads are soo annoying! You're in the middle of using the remote and an ad pops up. But it's nice to use in a pinch if you can't find your remote or if you're in the other room and someone is watching TV than you can turn it down from the other room! So helpful when I'm trying to take a nap while my oldest son has the volume cranked up.

Too many ads. The remote function works fine, but it I push any button more than 6 times an ads pops up. The ads last about 5 seconds each and are time consuming if you are scrolling through your TV guide. I will be definitely purchasing another TV remote to avoid these unnecessary ads.

Doesn’t support family sharing!. So I bought the full premium pack thinking I can share the premium with my family, but I can’t so every time they want to change the channel on the living room tv I have to go do it myself. One good thing is that this app does work with my watch. But why say you can share the app purchases with your family if you can’t.

More ads than it’s worth. I downloaded this app because I lost the tv remote during our last move. I hate this app....Way too many ad pop ups. I can’t even scroll through the channels without having to wait every 5 seconds for an ad to play through super annoying!! I’m just gonna go buy a real remote.

Remote. It’s only the best if u get the ads off 👌🏾 haven’t had a problem for almost a year just shuts out if I’m pressing to much at once sometimes lol

Stops working. I read the other reviews that said it stopped working after purchase and thought that won’t happen to me. Well it did. It worked great before I purchased it. Once I purchased it, it stopped working within a couple days. I tried reinstalling and still doesn’t work. Don’t waste your money. Go buy one at the store which is what I had to do after buying this.

Remote TV Review. You have to spend money to turn on the tv with this app. Also, you have to spend money to be able to turn on like Netflix or any other apps. Pretty much you have to spend a lot of money to where when you didn’t want to buy a remote it would’ve been a lot cheaper.

Perfectly mediocre. Sometimes it works great and sometimes it doesn’t work at all. I paid for the premium version somewhere along the way but don’t really remember why. The app hasn’t worked for me in a few days, so here’s to hoping it will start working again soon.

Trash. Give me my money back. Useless waste of money. I want my money back. Remote app disconnects from tv after leaving the house or if tv is off for more than an hour or so. Apple TV app button does not work at all Trackpad does not work at all Not much haptic feedback and it’s not good where it does appear You have to pay to remove ads and then pay again to use app shortcuts and Siri

Do not recommend. I am not entirely sure about this but I bet you could get another app that doesn’t have adds every 3 seconds. The one star is because it works.
