I’m trying to get it to work first on my LG ThinQ. Only two functions will work. After I turned the TV off, it will not turn the TV on. Unless the Developer of this APP can get this working for me, I’ll have no choice but to ask for a refund. I was so excited to have a universal remote app. What a letdown this one has been. If these rating notes are monitored by the developer, I need you to reach out to me. I need your help. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Rating *2024-11-22, version 1.6* The remote doesn’t work but the monthly price is good ### 1/5 — Annoyed *2024-11-04* Forced me to pay 4.99$ for a subscription that sent me to another app instead, making me pay for two subscriptions you should fix that ### 1/5 — You want me to pay what?!?! *2022-05-22* Must pay $20 to use fast forward and rewind function. **Developer response:** Your problem needs more detailed examination.

It said $19.99 for a lifetime so I went ahead and did that because I knew I would be using it all the time. Bad choice! Once I pay the fee, it told me to connect my device and when I went to connect it said my device is not supported. They already charged me and took from my card andI didn’t get to use any of its services. I would like a refund. ### 2/5 — Trash *2021-03-17, version 1.1* Always says my tv is not available. I’m upset I paid $20 for the full app --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
