I couldn’t just like turn on the TV with my phone so you guys should get that figured out unless it’s my device. I don’t know if it’s like that for a lot of people but you need to figure that out if it’s just for a lot of people. ### 4/5 — It’s very nice. Sometime’s little lagging but very good! *2025-12-21* Perfect! ### 1/5 — This is horrible *2025-11-25, version 1.3.3* Does not work don’t try! ### 1/5 — Does not work at all *2025-11-24, version 1.3.3* Does not sync with the system ### 1/5 — Horrible *2025-11-23, version 1.3.3* It does not want to connect ### 1/5 — Elo *2025-11-17, version 1.3.3* Can’t even connect tv my bro ### 1/5 — Bad *2025-11-15, version 1.3.3* A mess Of ### 1/5 — Useless *2025-11-13, version 1.3.3* I am able to use the directional arrow buttons, but not the middle button to confirm the selection so it’s kinda pointless. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Adverts while trying to use *2026-08-08, version 1.3.7* I used to love Fochro. However now I’d rather buy a new Chromecast with a remote than continue using this with advert after advert while I’m just trying to change channel or press play / pause. Have to watch an advert to continue watching a show after it’s been on pause. Highly annoying ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-07-14, version 1.3.7* This app is so bad I got the purchase and it won’t even connect to my tv would not recommend terrible ### 1/5 — £12 a month subscription *2026-06-01, version 1.3.6* For a tv remote lol ### 1/5 — Because no ceybourd *2026-05-20, version 1.3.6* Nothing I can do ### 1/5 — No good *2026-05-18, version 1.3.6* Takes money out straight away even though it says 3 day free trial. Then doesn’t even work, doesn’t connect to any tvs. Waste of time & money ### 1/5 — Жесть одним словом *2026-04-12* Теперь, чтобы подключиться необходимо оплатить. Вот это вы круто придумали, так держать! ### 1/5 — Eingeschränkte Bedienung *2026-03-04* Die OK Taste der App ist ohne Funktion, damit kann die App nur zum Teil als FB verwendet werden, man benötigt immer trotzdem noch zusätzlich die normale Fernbedienung! Im Prinzip ist die App damit nutzlos und nicht mehr als einen Stern wert. Würde die OK Schaltfläche funktionieren, wäre die App gut! **Developer response:** Thanks for your reply. Does OK button work? Because there is some misunderstanding ### 1/5 — Not worth the download *2026-01-13, version 1.3.3* App wants you to pay for something that doesn’t work ### 1/5 — buttons suck *2025-12-20, version 1.3.3* wdym i cant hit the ok button that’s so dumb ### 1/5 — Why? *2025-12-03, version 1.3.3* It won’t connect ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — So Dependable *2026-08-22, version 1.3.7* Easy ### 5/5 — Vanilson *2026-03-25, version 1.3.4* Vadilson 15 ### 5/5 — Vanilson *2026-03-07, version 1.3.4* Vadilson 15 ### 5/5 — Super einfach und schnell *2026-02-15* Euch einfach zu bedienen und super Funktionen echt super!!! ### 5/5 — Отлично работает *2026-01-26* Сломался пульт, телевизор смотреть хочется, отличное приложение, да реклама есть,но ниче страшного можно и пропустить раз пульт работает ### 5/5 — Chromecast remote *2025-12-28, version 1.3.3* This app works!
