Used to work okay but not doesn’t
This app used to load up a remote an Connect to my tv. I downloaded it as a back up for my actual remote. The connection to my tv gradually got worse but could still use the app to reconnect with the tv. Now the app does not even load correctly. It loads up the discovered devices screen but it is a blank black screen. Cannot select anything, no option to select a device or the menu or to go back, so the app is basically useless now as it is just a black screen with nothing to click. Tried to uninstall and then reinstall on many occasions but this has not done anything.Show lessBeth_18
Disappointing
No where said I needed to purchase the paid version to continue using this. I swiped through the three screens to check out the features (having only ever pressed the power button TWICE) and apparently I can’t use the app anymore without buying the paid version.Samantha-Panther
Not giving you guys more money
So loved this app at the beginning, not quite sure exactly what I paid when they offered the “full access” this was prior to the “pro” but anyway I made my purchase, ignored the constant glitching and having to relaunch the app anytime I put my phone down (really annoying but ok) so anyway I was fine for months then I just noticed that now since there is another “upgrade” my original purchase now comes with ads. And I mean 5-10 seconds of trying to use the frickin slow, glitching app almost to what I need to select and there it is the dam ad... honestly I made my purchase why is it that now that there is a “pro” I have to pay again or at least leave my version alone that there isn’t any pop ups or ads when I made my original purchase!Show lessCrysCora
Awesome App.. Very user friendly..
I tested this app with out pro version..
It’s way better than all other LG remote tv apps..
After 2 weeks of throughout testing.. I bought pro version with just 4$.. It’s good for me to get rid of adds nd the search option is very good in pro version.. If you need search option, it’s worth buying this pro version.. otherwise normal version is enough.. I personally felt it’s good for me, as my kid always throws my tv remote,,, and I use this app frequently...Show lessMyapple@1234
Nice remote, but would be good if buttons on screens could be reordered.
Nice to have a trackpad to operate the pointer. I wish the button for “settings” was on the same screen as the trackpad, though. I primarily use the app to turn off the TV screen while listening to music, and I currently have to swipe back and forth between screens in the remote app to accomplish this. Sometimes a bit slow to connect, too.Show lessfactsaboutdinosaurs
Not happy
The worst app. For LG remote. It takes ages to connect to the T.V. You have to try 2-3 times every time. Then once it’s up, the adverts start in the remote app, which is very annoying and you have to close the app, open again as the advert will not close. So if you want to adjust the volume, be prepared as it will take a while as you have to skip ads first then close the app and reopen and close the adverts again.Show lessappleid pk
It’s ok
Update from my previous review! I found in the app I needed to restore where I paid for the non commercials which was quick it works fine now and no commercials !!! 🙌
Worked alright after I paid for it but now a year later even though I paid for it there’s ads popping up which was the point of paying for it in the first place and I always have to completely restart the app on my iPhone if I go on another app.Show lessXosuzzzxo
Could be great, just falls short
Downloaded this app after my two kids managed to make our old tv remote completely disappear from he face of the earth. Was hoping to not have to buy an expensive replace or a cheap universal one but found this smart app. The connectivity of it asked like a nice feature and for what it’s worth the first time I opened it seemed to work fine. Used it for an evening and got quickly tired of the ads so paid for the full app. Literally the next day it started giving me a ton of trouble, random crashing in the app, 15 mins to connect to the tv while it’s syncing on starts, and the most common error is it will “successfully connect” and not show any of the remote interfaces like it can’t load them. Tried updating and reinstalling with same results. Essentially now if i open the app, I can expect to have to restart that app 5-6 times during use. Another fun thing is if it’s connected, and you are watching something but just leave the app open and put your phone to sleep, when you need to use it and turn it back on it does just go back to working. Cycle sync icon for 2-3 mins and then crash. It’s basically now something I spent money on that will sit useless in a folder on my phone. I’m giving it two stars because I saw it working well at start and would love if it was consistent. Guess who’s just buying a universal from Walmart now?Show lessMr_Achilles_I
Ehhhh
“Ehhhh” is my exact thought about this app. I have not bought the app, I just have the free version because you would think that it would still work properly. You guessed wrong, if you get an ad then you can’t use any button unless you close it out and reopen. When you reopen, it makes you select a tv. Now in my house I am the only one with a smart tv so why can’t it just automatically connect to my phone and bring me straight to the remote.
My S/O bought the other version and said he still gets ads, it still freezes up after an ad, and paying for it just meant he received a remote that looks a little different. You are a multi million dollar company, do better.
Overall, it gets the job done but you have to be patient while working with it.Show lessRosebud__12
Life saver
Best digital remote I’ve used. I’m able to do everything I can with my remote with ease. Life saver after our remote was ruined.sds1992apple
