### 1/5 — Same problem as the previous person with it not connecting

*2026-02-07, version 5.01.013*

Just won’t connect & returns to tap to turn on repeatedly without actually turning on

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-02-02, version 5.01.013*

Does not work at all.

### 1/5 — POS

*2026-01-30, version 5.01.013*

POS

### 5/5 — Mr

*2026-01-14, version 5.01.013*

After downloading and deleting ten other apps I found this one this is the best one

### 1/5 — Completely garbage

*2026-01-12, version 5.01.013*

Used to work with Alexa devices on hisense TVs basically it sees the TV connected, but it does nothing and it won't connect in the app just shows it in the list

### 4/5 — Good app

*2026-01-12, version 5.01.013*

It does what is says. The turn on button doesn’t work. It needs to be a HISENSE TV FROM 2018 if not the app won’t recognise the Tv. Overall it is a good app and works like it should

### 1/5 — It says app does not support tv

*2026-01-09, version 5.01.013*

App does not support tv

### 5/5 — Lifesaver!

*2025-12-31, version 5.01.013*

So far so good, tv remote stopped working and this app saved the day. Worked on my old Hisense tv straight away and it’s free.

### 1/5 — Inutile

*2025-11-22, version 5.01.013*

Application qui fonctionne seulement si on allume avec la télécommande d’abord. On ne peut pas allumer la tv avec le téléphone car la télé devient indétectable. L’application est donc inutile

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-11-15, version 5.01.013*

Works a treat, would love if it could also turn the TV on but I understand there are limitations!
