Four star

It’s not really that good because there’s no turn up volume. I don’t know there’s no turn up volume no turn down there’s only mute on there, so that’s why I give it a four star. Anyways, I love it.

Review

The reason I gave it a 3 star is because every time I use it about 20 seconds after, I get adds and no other app I’ve had does I don’t understand but it gets the job done when needs but the ads are too much

Very very useful and convenient

Very good for if you loose your remote instead of ordering a new stick and hdmi setup this is a quick easy fix and it works great practically like the remote itself on your phone and maybe you’ve gotten more used to this then the actual remote itself which it’s very useful for
