### 3/5 — Stopped working >:(

*2023-07-26*

While I loved this app, all of a sudden, it stopped working for me. Every time I tried opening up the app, a few months after I downloaded, it it just wouldn’t open at all. Even if it did it wouldn’t work for my xbox(xbox one) sometimes my xbox wouldn’t show up at all( might be on my part for that one). When I downloaded this app it also went onto my iPad. This app still for some reason worked on my iPad but not my phone? Can anyone help me with this.

### 1/5 — THE XBOX APP ALREADY HAS A BUILT IN CONTROLER

*2023-05-01*

UPDATE: I emailed the app developers and they never got back to me. HOWEVER I DISCOVERED ANOTHER WAY!! IF YOU DOWNLOAD THE XBOX APP, LINK YOU XBOX, AND CLICK THE XBOX CONNECT ICON AT THE TOP TWORDS THE RIGHT SIDE IT ALREADY HAS A REMOTE CONTROL BUILT INTO THE APP!!! (ps both decides must be on the same network to work!) ORIGINAL REVIEW: Everytime i connect to my xbox the app crashes, it was working well for about a year but a good while ago this app just stopped working and wont connect to my xbox anymore. everything is up to date and everything, the app just keeps crashing. i even tried connecting to a different xbox to make sure that the console wasn’t the problem and the app crashed again. what can we do to fix this? i have also uninstalled and reinstalled the app, restarted my xbox, reset all my network settings, reset my router- im not sure how we can fix this issue.

### 2/5 — Worked For Awhile & Then Stopped

*2023-04-15*

I had this app for a little over a year and it worked great aside from the constant ads popping up every two or three button presses. I opened the app one day and suddenly it wouldn’t work. It’ll connect to the Xbox but as soon as it does the app closes. I’ve deleted, redownloaded & repreated the process along with manually connecting to my WiFi and it continues to do the same thing. I loved this app at first but now it just doesn’t work. Please fix this bug!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2023-02-09, version 1.0*

Okay so I download the app and when it showed me all the devices to pair too I set my phone on the same Wi-Fi as my Xbox and when I click Xbox on the list of devices it just closes the app on me every time it says connecting for like a half a second then it closes itself out and never connects

### 5/5 — Idk

*2023-01-20, version 1.0*

The app is great but it keeps kicking me out of the app it didn’t do that when I first downloaded it

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore.

*2022-12-30, version 1.0*

I have tried to download this app multiple times and at the beginning it worked fine but now it just keeps kicking me off. It won’t connect or anything I have downloaded literally over 20 times and it does the same thing. So only one star from me

### 2/5 — Keeps crashing

*2022-12-25, version 1.0*

My controller has stick drift do i love this app.. but When i open the app it just crashes immediately, worked perfectly before. Just needs an update ill change the review when the priblem is fixed

### 5/5 — Why???!!!!

*2022-09-09, version 1.0*

Why are you even using this because you can literally just get the Xbox app and use the remote on there like why

### 5/5 — Perfect and smooth!

*2022-08-28, version 1.0*

Ran out of batteries for my controller like a dingdong and didn’t feel like bringing my lazy self to the store. This app saved my life. You can’t use it to play games obviously, but it’s great for general navigation and switching apps, all that good stuff.

### 5/5 — Remote won’t connect

*2022-08-22, version 1.0*

Absolutely love because one of my controllers will not work. Worked fine then all of a sudden it won’t connect.
