### 2/5 — Too many Adds!

*2026-08-23, version 2.7*

This app has way too many ads that constantly interrupt you when you’re trying to change channels or change TV settings, making it impossible to use unless doing basic channel changes. Will delete ASAP do not recommend.

### 2/5 — Funciona pero tiene demasiados anuncios

*2026-05-16, version 2.7*

He utilizado la app por los últimos dos días y es fácil de conectar a la TV pero tiene demasiados anuncios y cuando digo demasiados es demasiados. Con cada toque que doy se activan los anuncios y no puedo cambiar los canales es muy molesto. Entiendo que hay que poner anuncios pero exageran.

### 2/5 — Paid and it still sucks

*2026-04-25, version 2.7*

Paid for the premium and it still disconnects frequently and takes a lot of tried to reconnect

### 4/5 — D

*2026-02-16, version 2.7*

D

### 2/5 — Не работает

*2026-01-31*

Не работает ищет находит но не заходит. А деньги просит

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2025-12-29, version 2.6*

SCAAAAMMM!!!! Says it works with my TCL and it gave me a sneak peak of using it then asked to pay a 4.99 & did and then it completely said my TV was not compatible & sent me to another app just to try & pay another 7.99!! A scam

### 1/5 — BS app

*2025-12-27, version 2.6*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Will not connect

*2025-12-20, version 2.6*

Will not connect to my tcl tv

### 1/5 — Had to Pay Before Finding out it Wouldn’t Work

*2025-12-12, version 2.6*

The window for subscribing to the remote kept popping up. Once I bought the subscription, I told me that I needed their universal remote for my TCL TV. So I wasted $20 and then had to get the universal remote for another $20.

### 2/5 — Stupid tactic

*2025-12-09, version 2.6*

Apparently it’s a good remote AFTER they bully you into purchase. Before that it’s an ad pop up every click. Dumb tactic

### 4/5 — Tv

*2025-12-05, version 2.6*

You can’t find your tv unless you have a fire stick

### 1/5 — A charge just to turn on a tv?!

*2025-11-26, version 2.6*

Vizio would never.

### 4/5 — Charges $4.99 per week! 😳

*2025-11-14, version 2.6*

I’m not paying a penny for this remote app, Roku App works and free so why pay for 3rd party with same quality?

### 3/5 — Could’ve been great

*2025-11-12, version 2.6*

Too many ads, almost an ad on every press.

### 1/5 — Bad experience

*2026-08-26, version 2.7*

Not recommended

### 1/5 — Sucks

*2026-08-01, version 2.7*

Does nothing just ads lost time that will never get back

### 1/5 — Not so great

*2026-07-15, version 2.7*

Way too many adds

### 1/5 — Wow. Unusable

*2026-05-16, version 2.7*

So I bought this a few years ago after my dog ate my remote (yeah, yeah. I know) and was waiting for a replacement. Worked great. My current remote isn’t working so I pull this up and OMG! It’s stuffed with ads! Unless I pay for a monthly subscription, I now get ads after one click. If I’m too fast I end up clicking an ad while just trying to change the volume. This is the WORST now. Eff it. I’ll just watch things on my tablet while waiting for a new remote. Deleting this trash from my phone

### 1/5 — Péssimo

*2026-05-13*

Estou tentando entrar em contato com o app para o estorno e infelizmente não funciona, o app se trata de um golpe, não houve serviço prestado porém houve cobrança !

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-05-07, version 2.7*

Too many ads they require purchase otherwise every other 5 taps you have an ad. It's horrible.

### 1/5 — App sucks

*2026-02-23, version 2.7*

Doesn’t want to connect shows my tv but won’t connect

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work correctly

*2026-02-22, version 2.7*

Paid $19.99 for yearly subscription to use this on my TCL tv, now after paying it forces me to go to another app “Universal remote tv smart” and that app wants me to pay for a subscription as well when this “TCLee” app should be the correct one…

### 1/5 — Плохо

*2026-01-28*

Не работает

### 1/5 — Worst remote I’ve ever used

*2026-01-18, version 2.6*

I paid for the year long subscription. The remote worked ONCE and hadn’t worked again since. Legitimately the worst app I’ve ever used and a complete waste of money.
