It can connect to my tv and control it. But why ads?! And I need to scroll out of the app after each use or I can't control it anymore. ### 3/5 — Why so many adds *2026-07-19, version 1.1.16* It works just fine it’s just there is so many adds it’s so annoying I hate it ,no matter what I do there is adds all the time. ### 4/5 — It Ok *2026-07-08, version 1.1.16* It works good just it has a lot of ADS🙄 ### 2/5 — Don’t recommend *2026-06-21, version 1.1.15* This is easy to sign into bc it just gives a code but it has so many add the second u press something it’s just add ### 2/5 — Subscription or ads *2026-06-16, version 1.1.15* Do you want a TV remote we ads? Do you want to pay $20 / year for a remote? No. Me either. Works but has ads. Can avoid ads with a subscription, but it’s $20 / year and you can buy a physical replacement remote for less. I would pay $20 one time but per year is excessive. ### 2/5 — Too many ads. *2026-06-11, version 1.1.15* WAAAY too many ads. ### 1/5 — doesnt work *2026-06-07, version 1.1.15* Ads without a way to back out so you cant use the remote ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2026-06-03, version 1.1.15* It freezes alot and always running ads ### 2/5 — BRO *2026-05-31, version 1.1.15* WHY THE **** DO I GET AN ADVERTISEMENT EVERY TIME I PRESS THE OK BUTTON????!!!???! I SHOULDNT HAVE TO PAY TO USE MY TELEVISION. ### 1/5 — Terrible. Do not download. *2026-05-27, version 1.1.15* Constantly disconnecting, constant ads, will not connect to my bluetooth devices, and honestly such a sketchy app. Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — I want my money back *2026-05-26, version 1.1.15* It doesn’t work ### 4/5 — Works as intended *2026-05-17, version 1.1.15* Just a lot of annoying ads, but i definitely use this app when i loose my remote. ### 4/5 — 5/10 *2026-05-14, version 1.1.15* Too many ads and ads on the worst timing ### 1/5 — Don’t use *2026-05-14, version 1.1.15* Worst app ever never using again ### 1/5 — Far too many Ads *2026-05-09, version 1.1.15* Ads after every single input do not get this app ### 1/5 — Pointless App *2026-05-06, version 1.1.15* Intrusive adds for a remote is crazy. Literally can’t press two buttons without having to close the app and reopen it. And then it takes a while to re connect. Whomever made this app care ZERO about the end user experience it’s an obvious money grab ### 3/5 — Lag *2026-05-01, version 1.1.15* It would freeze up or say there isn’t anything to connect to if ykwim. That definitely needs to be fixed, it’s really annoying bc I want raining sounds to sleep😭😢 ### 3/5 — Pretty Ok *2026-04-19, version 1.1.15* Ok. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I’d give 0 stars if i could *2026-08-07, version 1.1.16* These greedy devs won’t let you do more than 10 clicks without prompting an unskippable 15 second ad. If you’re gonna spend money, just spend it on a real remote instead of this bs. ### 1/5 — Awful *2026-08-02, version 1.1.16* Doesn’t connect, when it does it doesn’t stay connected. Wants you to upgrade. The way it does adds is intrusive. It also tries to trick you into buying premium. DO NOT GET THIS. ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-07-26, version 1.1.16* Doesn’t work. Wants to connect to WiFi, not the tv. Not a remote control at all. ### 1/5 — So. Many. Ads. *2026-07-07, version 1.1.16* If you want to spend 20 minutes watching ads before you can even open your netflix account get this app. personally I think an ad every three taps is too much. I deleted the app over it I would rather just not watch tv. ### 1/5 — Remote with no volume adjustments? *2026-06-30, version 1.1.15* What’s the point of having a remote that doesn’t adjust volume. ### 1/5 — Overcharging *2026-06-24, version 1.1.15* They have charged me at least 3 times every single month ### 1/5 — This Remote Sucks *2026-06-23, version 1.1.15* I downloaded this remote after the physical remote stopped working for some odd reason. The remote was working for a few days but then stopped. I resubscribed to it and it still won’t connect to my internet. It’s so annoying ### 1/5 — レビュー4.0なんて嘘 *2026-06-21* アプリ内でサブスク登録をすぐ要求される リモコン操作してても広告挟んでくる レビューを見てもどこにもコメント付きの星4以上のレビューが見当たらない（絶対サクラ） 星1もつけたくない **Developer response:** Hello. We are sorry to hear your difficulties during using our remote app. Please note it’s possible to close store and start using remote. ### 1/5 — Insupportable *2026-06-15* Blindé de pubs qui s’enchaînent, 3 « clics » sur la télécommande pour 5 pubs. Quasi obligation d’acheter leur abonnement. C’est inutilisable et insupportable. ### 1/5 — Too many ads. Use official Amazon app *2026-06-09, version 1.1.15* It’s a bit sly because they are advertising this app so it shows as the first one so I thought it was an official Amazon app but it’s not and you just get bombarded with ads. Choose the one that’s by Amazon mobile it’s free and it works perfect with no ads. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-05-21, version 1.1.15* Awesome none of the other apps could find my tv or connect but this one ! ### 5/5 — Good *2026-05-20, version 1.1.15* Great stuff ### 5/5 — Angel⭐️ *2026-04-11, version 1.1.14* THIS IS SOOO GOOD they need to get a big fat check ### 5/5 — Yasin *2026-03-20, version 1.1.14* This is a cool app ### 5/5 — Genesis Castro *2026-03-16, version 1.1.13* 10 out of 10 ### 5/5 — Yes *2026-03-04, version 1.1.13* Jus yes ### 5/5 — Great for lost remote *2026-02-20, version 1.1.12* When our remote was lost, it was good to use ### 5/5 — Breezy hood *2026-02-17, version 1.1.12* 5 ### 5/5 — 7/10 *2026-02-15, version 1.1.12* It’s great when I lose my little fire stick remote but I really really really hate all of the ads ### 5/5 — Best app ever!!!!!!! *2026-02-02, version 1.1.12* I love this app so much also my remote broke so it really helps to watch my tv --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
