However, it only connects to my tv about 20% of the time. ### 2/5 — Useless *2026-06-17, version 1.5.1* Cannot fully use the free version as there are no arrows in this without purchase ### 2/5 — What happened *2026-04-26, version 1.5.1* This remote worked for years. And would’ve give it 5 stars. I even paid for the full access some time back. And now in the last two weeks nothing. It will not connect to my LG tv anymore. Which the only tv I’ve needed and used it for. So now it’s worthless to me. Someone please fix this! ### 2/5 — Not a good app *2026-04-16, version 1.5.1* App doesn’t work even when I restart it. What do I do? ### 3/5 — Remote for Lg TV *2026-03-09* Gute App , leider zuviel unter-Kategorien , hätte gerne Funktionen die sofort erreichbar sind, ohne Swipen der TV App Teil könnte dafür mehr in Hintergrund, und mein LG 55LA9659 lässt sich mit der App nicht einschalten, schade , für den Preis hätte ich gerne Konfigurationsmöglichkeiten welche Fernbedienungs-Set per Knopf sofort erreichbar ist. gut, dass die App auch auf dem iPad funktioniert neben der iPhone App für den gleichen Preis. ### 4/5 — SMART (To) *2025-12-09, version 1.5.1* Loved it until I saw the weekly cost. I only used it occasionally as we had the remote that went with the TV. ### 5/5 — بيررفكت *2025-07-30, version 1.5.1* 👏🏻 ### 5/5 — Remote control app for Samsung smart tv *2025-07-07, version 1.5.1* It works great! ### 5/5 — Not content *2025-07-05, version 1.5.1* I bout this app but I can’t connect to my tv I bay 15 dhs ### 4/5 — Works decent *2025-06-20, version 1.5.1* Works good other than not being able to power on the tv from the app. Better than all the monthly charging apps and since I lost my remote I’ll take this! ### 5/5 — ITS AMAZING SO MUCH *2025-05-29, version 1.5.1* Works perfectly. ### 5/5 — No more chunky remotes *2025-05-22, version 1.5.1* Best Buy ### 2/5 — NOT AS CONSISTENT AS IT USED TO BE *2025-05-19, version 1.5.1* This app used to be very effective.
