User Reviews: Remote for Samsung TV Smart

Reviews Summary

  • Scam of your money

    Why do I need to pay a steep price to control my tv ? I paid a steep price to own the tv. I have not lost the remote and simply wanted an extra.
  • Infuriating to use

    Always makes you press the power button to use the remote, but as it turns out, the power button turns off the TV. Doesn’t matter that the TV is on and the remote is connected.

    “Turn on the TV to use the controlla app!”

    This turns off the TV, controlla…

    So if you want to use the controller, you can absolutely use it when the TV is off!

  • Still Need Remote

    Very bad app. You still need a physical remote to use this app. What’s the point? Don’t waste money like I did.

    Developer Response

    We apologize for the inconvenience you've experienced. While it's true that the Controlla app requires a physical remote for the initial setup, this is necessary to establish the connection between the app and your TV. Once connected, the app provides many advanced features, including the ability to control your TV, access settings, trackpad, keyboard and more. We understand how this can be frustrating if expectations differ, and we’re constantly working on improvements. If you’re facing challenges with the setup process or need further assistance, our support team is here to help. Please contact us at support@controlla-tv.com, and we'll work with you to ensure you get the most out of the app. Your feedback is valuable, and we’re committed to enhancing the user experience.
