### 1/5 — Worked 1 Time

*2026-08-15, version 17.6*

I downloaded the app and connected to my tv using IP address. It worked really well that day so I purchased the ad blocker. It hasn’t worked since. The app will not connect to my tv.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2026-08-03, version 17.6*

Ads every now and then but way better than having to pay a $10 a month subscription to control my TV. Responds fast and has all buttons the remote does

### 1/5 — propaganda td hora

*2026-08-02*

infinitamente inferior a outros aplicativos com a mesma proposta

**Developer response:** Olá, 
Lamentamos saber que você teve uma experiência decepcionante. 😔
