### 5/5 — My original Fire Remote finally broke

*2026-01-18, version 6.2*

My original Fire TV remote got water on it so I found this app. I thought it was a scam but it’s actually worth a download. I like it. It’s pretty good. I’ve been using it for the past few months. It’s pretty good. All you need to do is just turn on developer mode on a Fire TV stick so go to settings click on your Fire TV stick when you keep clicking that down then I’ll say you’re five steps away from becoming a developer. Just just click. You’re OK button a few more times then enable ADBdebugging and you also need your grandma’s Fire TV remote to click OK

### 5/5 — It works!

### 5/5 — THE BEST APP EVER👍

*2024-08-15, version 6.2*

Love it! I love the fact that it works without wi-fi (internet!!) well you have to have either one wi-fi or hot spot, in my case I only have hot-spot and it works great!! Thank you to the people who made this app!! For people like me who only has hot-spot!!! 🥹

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-03-16, version 6.2*

I downloaded this app to control my fire stick and it only worked for a few hours after that it didn’t. It always said to check my connection but there’s is nothing wrong with my connection, i keep downloading it and it still doesn’t work. Don't download this just use your actual remote don’t waste your time trying this on your phone also don’t believe the “good” reviews.
