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 ### 3/5 — v.5.01.013 no found tv in ios 26.1 16promax *2025-11-15, version 5.01.013* 15 nov 2025 please fix a connection between tv in local network that all time and sometime did not found tv and fix position for a shutdown button at top right corner by move down button for a bit because this button could not press and not suitable for 16 promax display. ### 3/5 — Einschalten und Verbindung *2025-09-13, version 5.01.013* Die Verbindung kann ich oft nicht herstellen. ### 4/5 — Dejo de funcionar despues de tanto tiempo *2025-09-02, version 5.01.013* Llevo usando el control hace años, pero por tema personal tengo tiempo que no lo usaba, hasta hoy que me doy cuenta que no puedo ingresar ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-08-09, version 5.01.013* The remote that I have to pay for work with this high sense TV.

Bit of a drag. ### 2/5 — La tv non si connette *2025-08-03, version 5.01.013* Comprato ieri il mio nuovo tv HiSense 7e 43 qled sono abbastanza soddisfatta del tv ma quando cerco di connetterlo con l’app mi esce un messaggio che bisogna aggiornare la versione del tv fatto l’aggiornamento ma nulla non si connette spero che riuscirete a risolvere il problema ### 1/5 — No updates since U5 Series over 4 years ago? Why buy a U7 or U8 if there’s no app support for them? *2025-07-31, version 5.01.013* Absolutely does not find current Hisense TV models thereby rendering both newer Hisense TV’s and this App completely useless. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-07-26, version 5.01.013* App doesn’t work with the tv. Keeps saying to update app, but app is up to date.

How are we supposed to connect our smart devices if the app is not want to be compatible when it’s so outdated ### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht mehr *2025-08-09, version 5.01.013* Das letzte Update dieser App ist über 4 Jahre her. Wahrscheinlich gibt es keine Weiterentwicklung. Mit den neuen Updates des Fernsehers, ist diese App unbrauchbar geworden. sehr schade. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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 ### 5/5 — Lifesaver! *2025-12-31, version 5.01.013* So far so good, tv remote stopped working and this app saved the day.

But I can’t do that with the current system version.
