### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-30, version 1.0.7*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — £8.99 Per week

*2026-08-30, version 1.0.7*

How much for a firestick remote not worth £8.99 per week what a rip off

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2026-08-30, version 1.0.7*

Connected the first time  used it has not worked since. You would think it would already be enrolled with the set originally got it for and set up for. Since then nothing. Horrible !!

### 1/5 — Utterly useless

*2026-08-29, version 1.0.7*

My firestick remote has died so I tried to set up this app instead - the free, limited version cannot even scroll through options.  The only button you can use without payment is the enter button. The idea that someone would subscribe and pay a pound a week to use a tv remote is insane!  Have immediately deleted the pointless app.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-08-27, version 1.0.7*

£8 a week for a remote that doesn’t work. Ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Geld-falle

*2026-08-19*

Ich war nur zu faul die Fernbedienung um kurz vor Mitternacht noch zu suchen, landete die app herunter und es hat sehr schnell udn easy sich koppeln lassen und bevor ich die erste  Taste klicken konnte wurde mir schon ein Abo aufgezwungen. Also wirklich du kannst nicht machen GAR NIX wenn du kein pro Abo von einer Woche für 10€ machst oder ein Jahres Abo 1,..€ pro Woche oder das direkt alles bezahlen für 90€. ABGESEHEN davon das sie Preise absurd respektlos sind ist es auch einfach dreist das man die App kein einziges Mal nutzen kann bevor es ein Abo abdrehen will. Nun ja Ende vom Lied, ich hatte dann doch ganz schnell die Motivation fürs suchen

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-08-17, version 1.0.7*

Disconnect constantly

### 1/5 — Absolute abzocke

*2026-08-16*

9,99€ die Woche für ein Premium Abo, dafür das ich die Tasten unten nutzen kann. Absolut dreist und ihr solltet euch was schämen

### 4/5 — quick and easy

*2026-08-15, version 1.0.7*

very good saved my life

### 1/5 — Ridiculous, why do I have to pay to use my TV?

*2026-08-14, version 1.0.7*

Downloaded the app to use as a remote but no matter what I press I have to get a subscription this is terrible, I just wanted to watch Shrek!

### 1/5 — terrible

*2026-08-14*

cant even do basic commands for free

### 1/5 — Don't waste your money

*2026-08-10, version 1.0.7*

Useless

### 1/5 — Okay

*2026-08-10*

Okay

### 1/5 — 無料ではほとんど使えません

*2026-08-09*

タイトルの通りです。
便利になるとは言えリモコン操作でこの金額は高い

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2026-08-09*

This app is garbage ; you can use it briefly then it locks you out.. garbage.. doesn’t even deserve 1 star

### 1/5 — Sucks!

*2026-08-08*

It won’t do anything without you agreeing to pay. Like do a free trial and then subscribe and I’m not doing that cause that’s when you forget and you end up paying for something you don’t want to!

### 1/5 — Not good

*2026-08-05, version 1.0.7*

I have to keep deleted and re downloading the app for it to work. 
Frustrating to do this when you pay so much!!

### 1/5 — Worked once then never paired again

*2026-08-05, version 1.0.7*

Seemed like a good solution to the lost remote. Worked once and then never again,

### 1/5 — Is this a joke?

*2026-08-05, version 1.0.7*

I downloaded this because I was too lazy to find my tv remote. You have to  be stupid to think anyone is paying a subscription for a tv remote. Not even the tv or any movies or shows. THE REMOTE. Don’t bother downloading.

### 1/5 — Don’t get!

*2026-09-05, version 1.0.8*

You literally cannot use it without paying.

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2026-09-04, version 1.0.7*

This app is THE most frustrating and useless app I’ve had the misfortune to use for a number of years. The free version has virtually zero redeeming features. Plus it simply fails to work.
As for the “paid” versions, I’m not going to pay for extra features when even the basics don’t work.

### 1/5 — Barely works on the free version….

*2026-09-04, version 1.0.7*

Hard to use with inconsistency throughout. It MAY work with the paid for version but with no guarantee it will actually work you could end up with less money and a larger number of useless/unworkable features. Better off just buying a spare remote. 

And considering your only trying to control what you already have paid for, charging a subscription is pretty poor. As a minimum you’d have thought Amazon would include it with the Prime Subscription.

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2026-09-03, version 1.0.7*

You can’t press anything unless you pay which is a joke for £8.99 a week

### 1/5 — Horrível!

*2026-09-03*

Horrível

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-09-02, version 1.0.7*

Rubbish

### 1/5 — Wtf

*2026-09-01, version 1.0.7*

You guys are hitler

### 1/5 — Run

*2026-08-31*

Really pathetic.  Cannot get my remote to work so thought this would work.  This app is useless and only wants you to subscribe an absorbent amount of money to use it.  Will not let you even hit the home button.  Money grabbing and disgusting.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-31*

This is a scam app, the actual app is below it in the store

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-31*

Pay crazy amount over something not even working more than 15 minutes
