### 1/5 — Requires location

*2026-07-21, version 17.9*

Why does a TV remote app need my location?

### 1/5 — Parou

*2026-07-01*

Parou de funcionar

**Developer response:** Olá Guilherme,
Lamentamos saber que a aplicação o tenha deixado a sentir-se desta forma.😞

Se algo não funcionou como esperado, pode partilhar mais detalhes sobre o problema aqui ou em support@os-apps.com, e teremos todo o gosto em analisá-lo.📩✨

### 4/5 — Long time loading (gathering resources…)

*2026-06-28*

If it was faster it is the best application to control Mi Box.

### 5/5 — Подошел

*2026-06-22*

Работает хорошо

### 1/5 — Больше не работаем.

*2026-04-21*

Раньше все работало. Видимо заблокировали пользователя в России. Пульт перестал работать 1-2 месяца назад. Точнее приложение перестало ловить коннект. Будто два устройства не в одной комнате.

**Developer response:** Привет,

Мы хотим уточнить, что мы не блокировали пользователей из России, и извиняемся за проблемы, с которыми вы столкнулись 😞

Что-нибудь изменилось с вашим телефоном, телевизором или Wi-Fi сетью с тех пор, как приложение перестало обнаруживать ваш телевизор? Также возможно, что есть ожидающее обновление для телевизора или приложения.

Если вы не против, пожалуйста, отправьте нам скриншот или запись экрана с проблемой, и мы постараемся помочь 🙏

### 5/5 — Success

*2026-04-18, version 17.9*

The best !

### 1/5 — Trop de pub

*2026-03-08*

Plein de pub en plein milieu fait exprès quand tu pianote pour te faire cliquer dessus

**Developer response:** Bonjour Abd' Allah,
Merci d'avoir partagé votre feedback🙏

Si les publicités interrompent votre expérience, veuillez noter qu'il y a également une option de paiement unique et peu coûteuse pour un accès sans publicité à vie disponible dans l'application.💯👏

### 5/5 — Спасибо!

*2026-03-03*

Спасибо большое! Всё работает прекрасно и бесплатно!

### 3/5 — Achat integré exhorbitant

*2026-01-29*

Attention, j’ai été exorbitant, je ne sais pas pourquoi, j’ai vidé ma carte bleue, je me retrouve avec 30 € de paiement ce matin alors que la télécommande coûte huit euros chez Amazon

### 2/5 — Not efficient

*2025-12-16, version 17.9*

You can’t turn on tv with it, volume control bugged and very slow when connecting. Actually redundant because you still need a pilot most of the time.
