No number pad
My whole reason for wanting a different remote than what came with the TV is that the original remote has no numbers on it. I have no idea why any electronics company would do that. Utterly stupid in my opinion. The only way to change channels when watching live TV over the antenna is to use the up-and-down arrow keys. So, I just figured I would buy a universal remote, but then saw some options for remote apps for my phone. I had not even thought of that. So I tried this one. The first time I installed it it found my TV very quickly but wouldn’t even let me change the volume without sending me a screen to buy the premium version. So I uninstalled The app just as quickly as I had installed it. However, I tried it again. Download the app again and this time it presented me with an entirely different interface. That, alone, is quite odd. This time, I could change the volume, but as others have mentioned it throws up an ad constantly. I don’t really mind ads if I’m not going to buy the premium version. But if they are so frequent as to completely destroy the use of the app, then it’s completely worthless. And, my primary reason for wanting something other than the remote I already have is to gain the ability to put channel numbers in using a number pad. This app does not have that, at least on the free version. But why would somebody Pay a yearly fee for an app instead of just buying an actual, universal remote? No idea. Hard pass for me.

I lost my remote
I lost my remote and I looked all around for it and couldn’t find it and you guys saved me!
Remote
Functions perfectly fine.
Takes too long to use
Adds pop up every few clicks and they are timed so you have to wait for them to skip. Also there’s no keyboard for typing.
No issues yet, just paid to remove adds
Closest universal remote I could find to my actual Roku remote. So it’s a winner
The app is horrible
OK we’re gonna get started on how the app is horrible the app even if you just get on it will start a ad. Some ads are 20 to 5 minutes long. Plus they want you to spend all of your money they take your money and then do not give you your subscription. This is totally fake.
To many ads
I can’t keep up with my remote so I downloaded this remote app but it has to many ads that is just crazy every 2 taps you make a ad pops up really then wants you to pay $5.99 omg please do something about that so I’m only giving 3 stars
Convenient but rediculous
Every 5 taps there is a 10 second ad. Ridiculous.
Love it!
Was looking for an app since my tv remote died on me and every other app wants you to pay. This one is free, works and is amazing !!
Awful…Just Want Your $$$
So you’re reading this saying “how do they just want your money? It’s a free app, right?”. While the App is free don’t plan on using it for more than 1.4 seconds at a time. You barely change a channel and ANOTHER ad pops up making the remote unusable. And forget about trying to do a search—ads make this virtually impossible without making you go crazy. Avoid this tr-App!!!
