good but too expensive

sorry why do you have to pay to turn to volume up? i can't bloody hear nothing i lost my remote and i ain't paying 7 pound a week..

use literally any other app

this app is a joke… $7 a WEEK for a REMOTE??? It’s not worth $7 a month, let alone per week!!! It’s the same as every other remote app… ain’t nothing worth $7 on it.

Paid

Need to pay to use it

Useless

If I could give 0 stars I would

Muy buen control lo recomiendo al 100%

Rarely works

Rarely works

Doesn’t work

Unfortunately it won’t work unless you are able to turn on the fire stick and as I don’t have a remote I can’t do that

No se conecta apagado el aparato

No conecta hasta que la enciendo nuevamente no lo recomiendo si no quieres estar encendiendo la TV cada vez que la quieras ver tienes que encender

Good

Works great for 86”

Ads after every button press.

Never use to be like that. Just tryna force you to pay for it now.

expensive

$6.99 PER WEEK to use this remote app, after my vizio remote died on me randomly. I replaced the batteries and it did nothing so I figured I could use the app until my new one comes in. I’ve had to use the fire stick app before and it was free so I was shocked to see how expensive this is. And there’s no folder in the settings section to be able to cancel which is really weird too

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience. The subscription price and trial terms are clearly displayed before starting the subscription and must be confirmed by the user. Subscription management and cancellation are handled directly through your Apple account settings, which is why they cannot be managed inside the app. We understand that subscription-based apps may not be the right fit for everyone, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. If you're experiencing any issues with the app or need help managing your subscription, please contact our support team**, and we'll be happy to help.

Doesn’t work volume

Forces you to start subscription to control volume then didn’t even work

volume don’t work

fix your app before you try making people pay for memberships

Didn’t work

Sorry, didn’t work.

Charged $31.64 for “free” trial

Very disappointed that I was immediately charged $31.64 for a three day trial that I canceled on day one of the three day trial. Now I have to contact Paypal go through their system for a refund . Very disappointed.

Free Trial for a remote? As if!

Sometimes there is a button that sneakily will let you bypass whatever add-ons they are trying to sell you, and you can go about your way, using the barebones version to at least change the volume/turn it on and off, etc. But I couldn’t find one. So in order to control my mom’s TV when I stop by, I’ve got to PAY 6.99 a month? Insane

Made it super hard to cancel the subscription

Didn’t work how I wanted it to so I went to cancel free trial nothing on there to cancel it made very awkward had to go into the App Store to stop it

Response from developer

We’re sorry this was frustrating. Subscriptions and free trials are managed by the App Store, and this is how all app subscriptions work — they need to be canceled through your App Store settings rather than inside the app. We understand this may feel less intuitive and appreciate your feedback.

Forces you to sign up for payment.

TV got factory reset without a remote. Downloaded this app to connect to it. Had to sign up for payment after 3 days. TV won’t display pin from app because it’s on the language select screen from the factory reset. And now of course they make it complicated to cancel subscription before being charge. Garbage app, avoid!!!

Response from developer

We’re sorry you're having trouble. Most TVs require a physical remote to complete the setup after a factory reset before app pairing can work. Regarding your subscription, these are managed directly through Apple. You can cancel at any time by following these steps: App Store → Profile → Subscriptions → Select App → Cancel Subscription. If you need further assistance, our support team is here to help!

A paid subscription stay away from

Definitely not worth the money they charge. Honestly you can buy a physical remote form Amazon for way cheaper than this.

Scam

This is not a tv remote at all, just a chromecast/fire stick remote, which I found out AFTER I paid for a subscription (doesn’t do anything AT ALL without one) do not download, there are already official apps that do everything this does without ripping you off with another subscription. You guys need to be investigated, this is a straight up rip off.
