It’s very stupid because it’s not free but it says on when you download it it’s not free so I wouldn’t buy this app 00 stars

### 1/5 — Not free

Not free when you look up free remotes.

### 1/5 — Not free

False advertisement this app forces you to pay for subscription upon downloading.

### 1/5 — Lame

*2024-06-28, version 1.1.5*

Was good for awhile and now i can’t even use it without paying a subscription. Only free if you wanna tap 3 times and then never again.

Horribleness

### 1/5 — Why do you need my card information if this app is free?

*2026-05-12, version 1.2.3*

If this app is free, then why do I have to put my card information in? Free means free!

### 1/5 — Not free if you want to use it

*2026-02-06, version 1.2.3*

Stupid that I put all that time into it and all you can do is turn it on and go to Netflix. Can’t control it after that.

### 1/5 — Tv app

*2026-01-08, version 1.2.3*

NOT FREE

### 1/5 — Piece of trash!!!!

*2026-01-04, version 1.2.3*

Downloaded the app and paid their $5.99 for a trial! What a piece of junk. Every app for a streaming service when chosen defaulted to LG gaming app! What the hell good is this? Scamming creator of this got my $5.99 and they probably do this on purpose. Don’t fall into the trap! Junk Junk Junk!!!

### 1/5 — LG TV

*2025-12-26, version 1.2.3*

Says it’s free and it’s not

### 1/5 — Just like the rest!!

*2025-07-22, version 1.1.8*

The fact that a multitude of most universal tv remotes can be found under the price of $10-$15 makes this app and others like it,
JUST ASININE in thinking that someone would want to pay a recurring daily, weekly, monthly and/or yearly bill. I get that you want to make money but a one time price should suffice instead of a wasteful subscription. I’ll just stick to manually using an actual tv remote instead of assisting your company with this foolery.

### 1/5 — I thought it was free

*2025-07-10, version 1.1.8*

I keep trying to find a free remote app and then i saw this one, it said free so i got it and I only made a few clicks and it said start a free trial. Whats the point of making an app that says free but it isnt?

### 1/5 — False advertising

*2025-06-03, version 1.1.8*

Not free,

### 1/5 — Not free

*2025-05-31, version 1.1.8*

App forces you to pick a subscription as you are trying to use the remote

### 1/5 — New TV remote doesn’t work

*2025-04-28, version 1.1.8*

It doesn’t work and I don’t know how to get my money back.
