The app is fine. It used to be free, now it costs money. The shortcut apps don’t work for my Frame TV. It’s still useful, but for an app I have to pay for, all of the features should work. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-08-24, version 2.1.0* Says it’s connected to my tv and it’s the same WiFi, but of course it’s not working… garbage ### 1/5 — Not functional *2026-08-24, version 2.1.0* This app only works thru a subscription. Yearly is $20 or lifetime $45. Don’t waste your money on this and just buy a cheap remote ### 1/5 — Trash Remote *2026-08-24, version 2.1.0* It’s so trash and I have to pay for everything ### 1/5 — this sucks *2026-08-23, version 2.1.0* i have to pay for more than 2 min of use. terrible do not install. ### 1/5 — It works *2026-08-23, version 2.1.0* It only works about half the time just like every single app but it leads this one works. I really hope that it works the entire time. I just downloaded it and it definitely hooked up to my TV. You have to turn on your TV so if it’s a little bit annoying, I haven’t been able to find my remote in two years so I’m really glad that I’m not found an app like this. I think I like it. I think I don’t I don’t really know so I’m going to write your stores, please read this review. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-08-23, version 2.1.0* For each click of the button you get an ad.
