### 1/5 — This is a scam

*2026-05-01*

This app is a disgrace if I lost my TV Wi-Fi and I’m trying to on it back with the app. I can’t connect to my TV now. I have to buy another remote because I can’t trust any of this TV app.

### 4/5 — Great basic remote

*2025-08-29*

Has the basic functions that work well.
If it had full keyboard input instead of just numbers, it would make it an excellent remote.

### 1/5 — Forget it

*2023-05-22*

On/off button does not work. Other functions did, but only for a while.  Guide stopped working after 30 minutes. Apple should cleanse the App store of this sort of rubbish.  20 TV remote app downloads and they are all rubbish. Most want money up front. Starting to make the app store a waste of time (and money)

### 5/5 — Top

*2022-07-06*

Simple design and works as expected. Thanks!
