Free version buried in ads

The app works but you get what you pay for. The free version is buried in ads that often obscure key buttons and won’t go away. You are also constantly prompted to upgrade and can’t use any remote buttons waiting for ads and upgrade offers to play. I don’t mind banner ads but this is really just a paid product. The free version is too annoying and often broken to use.

Unusable

Flooded with ads. Use google home instead. It’s free

Sucks

Sucks can’t get rid of the adds, won’t find the tv, horrible app

Sucks

Wont let me control it thru my apple watch waste of money i want a refund

Greed

I own the TV why are there ads for the controller??? Complete BS

Misleading

I payed for a licence and now they’ve taken that away and are trying to get me to pay monthly. What a waste

Thank you!

This app is so incredibly useful. I highly recommend it.

ONLY POTENTIAL ISSUE:
VPN TROUBLE
This was my own fault. Don’t make the mistake of confusing connectivity issues with a flaw in the app! 😅
My iPhone has a generalized VPN connection set to turn on ON DEMAND 24/7. It covers everything I use… which may cause serious connection errors with your TV. The part that was confusing is because sometimes the app stays connected another times it can’t find the TV. Just turn off your VPN when you need to use the remote and it works flawlessly.

MY ONLY REQUEST FOR THE DEVELOPERS:
please create an option for customizing widget button buttons.
I personally don’t use any of the preloaded widget buttons. Would be nice to have a directional touchpad next to a few customized buttons from the list of options already present in the app. It would be so nice to have a medium sized widget with:
——————————————
|(⚙️)(🔧) [ ]|
| (🏠) [ touchpad ]|
|(↩️)(Ⓜ️) [ ]|
——————————————
Regardless, I love the app!
It works great! Thank you!

Terrible it’s

Dumb and had adds!?

This remote Sucks

It barely ever works, it has endless ads for the dumbest companies, and is a complete waste of space on your phone. Do not get this app

Ads really?

It works tho but one star is more than enough! For what I’d be paying to remove ads I can buy a replacement remote! BTW it is not original Sony app

Great app, works well

Has almost everything you need.
Can you add a point(.) to the numbers section, please? For example, here channel 4 is 4.1 not just 4

Ужас

Самая бесполезная покупка!

Stopped working after 6 months

Cannot reconnect. I paid lifetime premium. Was working but now stopped. Won’t connect auto or Manual. Don’t know what to do with this.

A Perfect pairing with My Bravia TV

The layout of this remote looks and feels similar to my actual tv remote. It easily paired and has never given me any issues.

Yeah, no.

Just buy a remote. You’re not going to want to deal with this app.

Issues finding the tv. Connection issues.

I really like the remote when it works. We have both T-Mobile internet and STARLINK and for some reason it’s not finding the tv. Does this all the time. I even paid for the app. Wish there was tech support.

You get what you pay for and I didn’t pay anything for this lol

Actively tries to trick you into clicking adds. Yeah it’s free, but my god it’s frustrating having to wait for adds or jump out of the app over and over just to adjust volume.

Good

Grateful

Too many ad.

You can’t avoid ,even though.especially when you’re right searching for some program.and then suddenly advertisements in!

have the latest app update all of a sudden this week app not connecting to TV

says the request timed out. I’ve got to Sony TV from 2021.
