### 5/5 — Works great!

*2025-06-10, version 1.1.4*

I haven’t had any issues with this app, it turns my tv ON AND OFF, which many other apps have failed to do (my tv is a bit older, 2017). This app does what it’s suppose to and has all the features on my remote plus a few extras. Yea, maybe the app could use a little bit of help with the layout, but for free, I have zero complaints. Thank you for making this app!
