Love it

I usually keep my phone nearby, so it’s nice to use it as a TV remote instead of looking for the actual one. I mostly use the volume and channel controls, but the touchpad is also handy for navigating.

Scammy

I canceled my subscription 5 months ago and
They’re still
Charging me I now have to fight and dispute every single one 😑 trashy

Works very well, but subscription is still going on?

I downloaded the app, but it never said anything about subscribing to anything. The remote works really well, but it’s still charging me $14.99 per week. I’ve contacted Apple about this, but the subscription still isn’t cancelled. This froze my card too. Please fix this

Response from developer

This app is a scam

I downloaded the app to see if it would work for my tv I accepted a 3 day free trail the remote did not work and it charged me $42.99!!! Beware it will offer a free trail and steal your money

Useful

The setup was pretty simple. I connected my Hisense and Vizio TVs and my iPhone to the same Wi-Fi, and both worked without any issues. It’s convenient to have both TV remotes on my phone instead of keeping track of two separate remotes.

Response from developer

Hi Mackenzie, thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback! We’re really glad to hear that the setup went smoothly for you. If you ever have any questions or suggestions, feel free to contact us at support@kanatom.com or via App Settings > Contact. Best regards, Support Team

$10/WEEK!

There is no reason to pay $10/week to have a remote. There are waaaaaaaay cheaper alternatives out there that don’t prey on people who sign up for this and then forget to cancel.

Estorno

Fui usar o teste grátis e descontou, sem contar que ninguém entra em contato.

Response from developer

Doesn’t even work

Yo how many times are you going to say network restored god

$$$

This app in NOT free. Who wants to pay 100$ a year for a remote?

Handy Remote Replacement

I like having more than just the basic remote controls in one app. The keyboard and touchpad are useful for navigating and searching, and I can also cast photos and videos from my phone. It’s convenient when I want to control the TV without keeping track of another remote.

Response from developer

Hi, thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback! We’re really glad to hear that you’re enjoying using our product. It’s great to know the app makes controlling your TV more convenient.

Useless

Cannot connect to a Hisense tv. Just doesn’t see it. Also massively expensive at £9.99 per week

Response from developer

Please contact us at support@kanatom.com or via App Settings > Contact, specify your TV model, and we will take a closer look to help you connect. We also understand your concerns about pricing.

Honest review

If your tv doesn’t have an on switch or isn’t connected to wifi it won’t work I spent way too much to find that out after

Response from developer

Hi, thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback. You are right about how the app works. To get started, your TV needs to be turned on and connected to Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, this initial setup requires a physical remote to enable Wi-Fi. If possible, we recommend borrowing a compatible remote just once to complete the setup. After that, you can continue using the app. If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact us at support@kanatom.com or via App Settings > Contact. Best regards, Support Team

Surely 5* reviews are fake

£520 per year for a TV remote. Who in their right mind would value this rubbish at anywhere near that price?

Absolute scam

There are numerous free WiFi remote apps available with way more functions than this app. Also has intentionally misleading verbiage so as to appear to function through means other than WiFi like true universal remotes that connect to tvs through infrared

9.99/WEEK

Never seen such a high price for any app, much less one whose sole purpose is being a remote. You could purchase a whole new tv and get a new remote with it for the cost of this app.
