Updates are useless

Remote updates messed up

Very bad experience with new update, not a user friendly update there is no forwarding or backwards , wasting time to navigate

If It’s Not Broke Don’t Fix It

Ever since they did their update on the app Oct 2026, my app doesn’t work anymore. “If it’s not broke, don’t fix it”.. super annoyed because my iPhone is the only way I can use my FireStick.

Very Disappointed User

Very Disappointed. Because of physical limitations, I use iPhone voice control with this app. Prior to the latest update I was able to use all buttons (Items) displayed in the app with voice control. Now, I can no longer use/select the directional arrows or the center select button. They do not have a number or name associated with them. Also, the name “fast-forward” is not only associated with the fast-forward button, but it’s also associated with the play-Pause button. Other buttons do not have names associated with them (Sleep button and one other button). Somebody didn't test this properly before releasing it. I hope they fix this because it's useless for me now.

New design no good

They redesigned the app. You made it more complicated then it has to be. The old basic design was perfect all the controls on one screen. Now I have to click on the media tab to adjust volume and etc..
