Pls add keyboard. ### 3/5 — Used to be very good! *2018-07-19, version 1.2.5* Was fab but now doesn’t work all the time, very temperamental. Have to turn tv completely off then on again which is obviously needing the original remote so pointless! ### 4/5 — It works *2018-04-04, version 1.2.5* It works ### 1/5 — Works sometimes *2017-11-03, version 1.2.5* Sometimes this work and I love it. That's about 30% of the time. The rest of the time, nothing. Had to change my review because this never works. Ever. ### 1/5 — For Roku Only -didn't work with Sanyo Tv *2017-09-30, version 1.2.5* Wanted to use this for a Sanyo Tv that isn't a smart TV. Wouldn't give an option to add device for it. Already have a Roku Remote so this is not useful to me. ### 1/5 — smamdllslslla *2017-07-22, version 1.2.5* terrible dont even try it ### 1/5 — Doesn't work, waste of time *2017-06-25, version 1.2.5* It's all my Blu-ray player, Samsung TV, and PCH-C200. It could not connect to any of them. No other configuration available so I uninstalled. Why anyone writes a piece of software like this, is unfathomable. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2017-06-18, version 1.2.5* Waste of time, downloaded the app to find out that it doesn't sync to nothing in my resident... well it would have been great if that was in the description bar! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2017-06-14, version 1.2.5* Doesn't work ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does not work as advertised *2021-03-26, version 1.2.5* Could not find apple tv on same wifi network. So it is a fail ### 1/5 — Teclado não abre *2020-12-12, version 1.2.5* Teclado não abre, logo não ajuda em nada Lixo ### 1/5 — Universal remote *2018-12-27, version 1.2.5* Wonder why Apple allow this nonsense app developers to even market this rubbish on the Apple store, paid £2:99 A total waste of money, pure scam on Apple store , adverts still there n does not do what it lists , trust me don’t bother, developer is robbing, Feel frustrated n upset!!! Wish I could get my back, forget the amount of time I wasted switching the devices on n off !!!!! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2018-12-04, version 1.2.5* Says it works with a Bravia but it doesn’t at all, even though the TV shows up in the device list. ### 1/5 — Nope *2018-12-01, version 1.2.5* I read some of the reviews and decided to try it for myself. So, I downloaded it and it tells me, “No devices found”? Really? I have a brand new 2018 Samsung 4K Smart Tv. How did the people that said “it works” get it TO work?? ### 1/5 — Lazy Remote = Big Failure 👎 *2018-07-14, version 1.2.5* I was hoping this "Lazy Remote app" might work like a previous version of "AppleTV Remote app". Apple's ATV remote app once allowed users to type via keyboard in Search fields on ATV apps (e.g.; Netflix, Amazon Prime, YouTube, etc...). That feature was removed so I reverted back to the old "Remote app" which now has this functionality. The "Remote app" is really for both iTunes playback control and ATV playback control but seems to do what "Lazy Remote app" fails to do. "Lazy Remote" controls most of the functions needed EXCEPT the most important keyboard function. When using a Search input in an ATV app, it would be great if you could use the keyboard on your iDevice rather than the old scroll & click for each letter. "Lazy Remote" has the Keyboard ⌨️ icon showing in the upper left-hand corner when on the app's ATV control screen but unfortunately it is completely defunct and does nothing at all. It's been broken for months and the developer has not figured out how to fix it. ### 1/5 — Bit disappointing *2018-04-21, version 1.2.5* Doesn’t work on my Sony tv and I only found out after downloading ### 1/5 — Doesn’t works *2018-03-16, version 1.2.5* Don’t work with Sony Bravia ### 1/5 — Time waste *2018-01-22, version 1.2.5* Worst app. Dont install and dont waste your data. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2018-01-16, version 1.2.5* Couldn’t find my device and yes my phone was on the same network ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2021-07-23, version 1.2.5* This app is phenomenal. I don’t get why people hate it it is life saving 5/5❤️ ### 5/5 — Love this app *2020-04-21, version 1.2.5* My tv remote is broke and I was trying for ages to find a remote app that does not send an accept or deny option to my tv which I could not press because I didn’t have my remote!! This doesn’t do that :) ### 5/5 — Trop bien *2020-03-19, version 1.2.5* Trop bien ### 5/5 — It’s great *2019-02-09, version 1.2.5* We always lose the remote ### 5/5 — It works *2018-08-28, version 1.2.5* I use Telstra tv and it works ### 5/5 — Best app *2018-02-03, version 1.2.5* I tried over 10 Apps this is the only One which it worked ### 5/5 — Exactly what I wanted *2017-12-27, version 1.2.5* Just so great isn’t hard to set up and works smoothly! ### 5/5 — Worked for me *2017-09-12, version 1.2.5* 👍🏻 works well ### 5/5 — Works! *2017-07-13, version 1.2.5* First remote app I've found that actually works and I've been looking for a while! ### 5/5 — Like it!! *2017-05-31* 👍👍👍 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
