Can’t get her voice over off, can’t go to options, can’t watch any shows I subscribe to. After Christmas I will go looking for a new tv that is not a Fire. Everything was fine until I tried to update, then changed my mind. Hate Amazon Fire. ### 5/5 — Girl *2025-12-14, version 1.9* Slayyyyyyyyy ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-12-12, version 1.9* I really appreciate this free app for firestick. My remote either across room or bad batteries so this is helpful for disabled person ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Use anything else *2026-08-26, version 1.9* Having to pay monthly for basic remote features such as typing on your phone to search or use microphone commands is abominable! and the adds are so disruptive to the point where I will have to suffer through 3-4 to start watching. You can find plenty of remote apps that offer the exact same seevice free of charge ### 1/5 — Adds *2026-08-21, version 1.9* Why are there adds it’s a remote app ### 1/5 — Garbage *2026-07-04, version 1.9* This app is riddled of with ads and is always disconnecting. Truly an awful app. Zero stars! ### 1/5 — bad *2026-06-27, version 1.9* it’s very bad i have to buy premium to search up things and there’s many adds ### 1/5 — To much ads *2026-06-14, version 1.9* This app have been giving me ads every 30 seconds do not use ### 1/5 — Trash *2026-06-04, version 1.9* Never will connect ### 1/5 — Advertisement *2026-02-05, version 1.9* The adds pop up to fast, I got two while trying to spell for search in you tube ### 1/5 — The ads are hellish *2026-02-02, version 1.9* Stop trying to monetize EVERYTHING ### 1/5 — Whose bright idea was this? *2026-01-11, version 1.9* You can’t skip the ad on tv until you watch 30 seconds of ads on the remote control. Come to think of it, that’s bad for advertisers too! Because I’m messing with my remote instead of watching the ad on tv. And by the time I get the remote to work, the ad on tv is over. So I couldn’t even click through to purchase / sign up / learn more if i wanted to! ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-01-04, version 1.9* App sucks, everytime I try to scroll a new ad appears and I need to close the app and re open it just to select a show I wanna watch. 0/10 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Free *2026-08-24, version 1.9* Not riddled with ads so W ### 5/5 — Satisfied *2026-06-28, version 1.9* My troubleshooting need is I don’t want to have my both Firestick to start at same time ### 5/5 — App *2026-06-28, version 1.9* I love the app ### 5/5 — The best *2026-06-10, version 1.9* I could not find my remote control download the app gave me no problems like none. This is the best looking hook hooked up very very well. Literally we just popped up. I love it. I love it is so great for me. No complications. No nothing. This is the best.

I love this app and hope you do to ### 5/5 — Better than official Fire TV app *2026-03-07, version 1.9* Thought this would be a junk-app but it literally works better than the official Fire TV remote app. Connects to the TV faster. Gives you back the ability to adjust the volume from your phone. Cleaner interface. Wild how the official Amazon app sucks…for a product literally made by Amazon. ### 5/5 — Muy bueno *2026-02-14, version 1.9* Recomendado ### 5/5 — About this remote app *2026-02-08, version 1.9* The app is good it lets you do it for free but it makes u pay only IF u want premium --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
