  • A great app for a great project

    Kodi is an absolutely amazing media center pc program and this remote app can display your entire library. Thank you for the hard work devs!
  • Needs ui colors per server connection

    Great app, I use it all the time. It would be nice to easily distinguish between which server is connected. My wife is always changing my server accidentally, and I have to yell at her “Wrong remote!!” It’s hard to tell if you are connected to Living Room or Bedroom etc.

    Thank you for the feedback. Your suggestion is great and I already started to look at it (https://github.com/xbmc/Official-Kodi-Remote-iOS/issues/839). Please do not expect this to be available quickly, but I definitely see this as a value add.
  • Great Job!

    This Kodi remote just works. I connected it to OSMC and it just kept on going! Great work, Kodi team!
  • Best Remote App

    The remote controls are easy to use. Great stability and speed. Works great with Raspberry Pi OSMC. I tried a few other remote apps, but this was was at least 2 times better than the closest competitor.
  • Used to work

    Now it won’t connect. 3rd part apps work, but not this one.
  • Nice app

    Great remote. One request: please add more vertical space between the buttons. For example, moving the row of four buttons at the bottom (the one containing the headphone icon) down a bit would make it easier to tap the back arrow without accidentally tapping the headphone button. There’s a lot of blank space under that bottom row that could be used to make the remote less cramped.

  • Works So Well…

    I’m hesitant to ever update any app that works well and is bug free.

    So, I haven’t upgraded to the latest version. Experience has taught me never to update what isn’t broken!

    I’ll only update after sufficient time has elapsed and the new version hasn’t gotten poor reviews.

    THIS IS A POSITIVE REVIEW, IN CASE ANYONE HAS GOTTEN THE WRONG IMPRESSION.

  • Right click

    I love the app. I would appreciate the option to “right click” for more options. If there is a way to “right click” already, would someone please show me how.

    Thanks
    Brent.

    Thank you for the feedback. Could you describe what you mean by "right click" and which options you would expect it to do? Please create an issue on GitHub or on the Kodi forum.
  • Navigation could be optimized

    I really like having this remote! I just wish I could navigate to the remote control button style quicker without having to undo all my path navigation or deal with the fact that it’s on the settings sidebar.
  • Crapola

    Developer breaks a basic function (volume up/down). I send support email, no response. Write a negative review, I get dogged and told to use the "standard reporting channels." Screw you. You may be "the official" remote app, but there are five others like your app and some are even better.

    Honestly, you all are a joke. You break the volume controls, then expect us to be silent? I'd fire that person, except they are probably working for free and can't do any better.
