Bought an LG tv and now in order to use this app it wants me to pay for a yearly or monthly subscription ### 1/5 — LG Sucks!! *2026-01-24, version 1.2.11* For no reason TV stopped connecting to app. Tried everything and nothing works.

You are customer service. ### 3/5 — romote stops *2026-01-14, version 1.2.11* the romote stops working for my tv after 30 sec ### 4/5 — Slick design works great on lg tv *2025-05-27, version 1.2.5* Slick interface; clean design, and actually useful and work on my lg tv ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — frustrating *2026-07-13, version 1.4.1* need to reboot the app after every few minuetes that it’s idle refresh doesn’t help even when connected it mostly doesn’t work until closed down opened up & re connected it’s better than nothing but annoying ### 1/5 — It doesn’t work *2026-06-27, version 1.4.1* I tried connecting it to my tv and it can’t find it (never downloaded ### 1/5 — Don’t ask all the time for a review !!! *2026-06-25, version 1.4.1* No more review please!!!!! ### 1/5 — . *2026-05-03, version 1.4.1* Should be free. Why keep paying for a remote over and over and over again. Barely even lets me turn up volume basics aren’t worth it to keep using. ### 1/5 — This is a joke *2026-04-17, version 1.4.1* So you want $10 a year for what? Like everyone else you put out a totally useless app, and want $10 a year for it. Get real. ### 1/5 — Deceiving *2026-04-05, version 1.4.1* There is “LG ThinQ” that is free. This one only works for a short period before you have to pay for functions like volume to work. This one is a scam. ### 1/5 — Cancelling Subscription is Hard *2026-04-01, version 1.4.1* I tried to cancel the subscription as i didnt use the app but its only draining and charging my card repeatedly ### 1/5 — Worst tv remote app *2026-03-29* My controller somehow broke in half. I was happy to find this remote. However it is super disappointing because the ap has a hard time connecting to my tv. I spend a lot of time fighting it. Turning the tv off and on manually. Hard closing the ap. It is so not worth it. I have both Roku and google tv which neither ever have this issue. Time to trash this lg tv and upgrade to a Roku or google tv. Also why would anyone want to pay for a in ap remote when both google and Rokus are free? Buyer beware. ### 1/5 — Useless *2026-02-16, version 1.2.12* This app is useless unless you pay a subscription a absolute joke. ### 1/5 — Super frustrated *2026-02-03* Toddler lost our actual remote so I found this app to navigate our television. One night it refused to work unless I paid for a subscription. I paid the $30 and bought the “lifetime” package. Next day, same thing happened- I was unable to use the app unless I purchased a subscription. Super frustrating. Tried emailing company via the “contact us” link… no response. Emailed a SECOND time… still waiting for a response. Feels like a scam even though it looks like it’s endorsed by LG. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works *2026-06-21, version 1.4.1* Cleannnn ### 5/5 — Great *2026-06-19* Easy to connect to my Ai tv, no purchase necessary.
