Seriously folks

Kick off google play store works it you grab the APK doesn’t work at all on IOS on Android you can program the feature buttons and use find remote but that’s it
If you go to the website the remote is trying to connect to you get Chinese gibberish. Walmart must have a warehouse full of these 6 year old devices they are still selling

Nope!

App works to find your remote. But for programming or anything else it’s useless. So, you can find you lost remote that you can’t program to be useful for anything. Super handy.

Not working

Tried to use this to program the Beam I580 and all the app did when it was trying to program it was show the spinning circle of death. Totally useless.

SCAM- Useless for years

They are still selling these remotes at Walmart and places but the app isn’t supported anymore so you can only do 1/4 of the functions
