Awesome app!

There’s nothing worse than losing your remote... it’s never happened to me before but I️ did lose my remote on 5/3/18. My boyfriend and I️ got into a huge fight because we knew we wouldn’t able to fall asleep to our favorite show or change the volume from full blast. Then we discovered this app which not only lets you change the channel, select a different app but also lets you change the volume as if you have the physical remote in your hand. Kudos to you this app... for not only saving my relationship and preventing world war 3 but for also creating an aesthetically pleasing app that solves everyone’s problems. I’ve never left a review before but I️m so grateful to this app that I️ had to... thank you, thank you, thank you!

I just got a new tcl this app tv I have 2 now they are the only TVs in my home, and I just figured out I can use my phone on both that’s a game changer! I stream 4 channels and watch stuff on you tube. Over all I’m over the moon with my home entertainment needs thanks for all the hard word guys!

Works Great!

Love that the app is almost identical to the remote. I have never had a smart TV with a working remote app before. The remote gets misplaced and knocked down all the time so it’s nothing to walk up to the tv and turn it on then be able to sit down with the app

My Roku app

I love getting on it when I Lose the remote to the t.v it’s an easier way to go to apps and a better way to navigate there you want to go. I highly recommend using it when you can find your remote.

Super simple simple and well designed interface

I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to connect and get started right away. The listening on my phone headphones is a super helpful and useful feature. Great job guys!
