It is useful in a lot of ways. But…when I go to an app it stops me and says airplay.I then have to go back to home and do it again! It is really frustrating! ### 4/5 — Winner winner chicken dinner *2026-05-08, version 1.4.5* Great option but way too many ads ### 4/5 — Very efficient! *2026-03-06, version 1.4.5* Whenever I loose my remote, I got to this. Very cool. I sound like Facebook mom, but kudos to whoever made this for people who don’t wanna find their remote! ### 5/5 — Clock it *2026-02-12, version 1.4.5* It is so good to use when I can’t find my remote at al.🤏🤏🤏🤏😊😊😊 ### 5/5 — A.p. *2026-01-24, version 1.4.5* Very useful ### 3/5 — Works to control tv if you can select the right one out of multiple *2025-12-27, version 1.4.5* Often times it will select tv on its own without given user the choice.
