Charged money for it

If you need to control your sky glass tv from your phone, go to app store and download sky remote from sky tv. It is totally free. This one charges £3:99 pounds weekly. Not worth it when you can get it for free.

Great when it works

It’s great when it works, but often after a short period of time the app fails to recognise the TV it was connected to. The only way to counter this issue is to turn the TV off and back on again so it’s a little bit annoying and not consistent.
