### 1/5 — Greed

*2026-05-23, version 2.0.1*

This app is only for money they charge you to even connect to a TV and it's a subscription system don't download this app if you don't want to get a free app that charges you to do the entire thing you downloaded the app to do

### 1/5 — SCAM AND MONEY GRAB

*2026-05-22, version 2.0.1*

They are scammers! A remote control doesn’t even cost $60 or $10 a week… they scammed me and charged me $60. ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE DO NOT DOWNLOAd this APP

### 1/5 — Fer

*2025-08-13, version 2.0*

All about money

### 1/5 — This app stopped working

*2025-02-13, version 2.0*

I’ve had this app for 2 years - same TV now my TV will not connect to the app the code appears on the TV Screen but not the app. My subscription auto renewed and reached out to support twice about the bug, waste of money.

### 1/5 — Waste of time I thought it’s all free wrong it’s all money I suggest

NOT TO GET THIS

### 5/5 — Useless App

*2025-01-03, version 2.0*

Can someone please tell what website I can go to, to cancel this useless app? :)

### 1/5 — Connection fails.

*2024-12-15, version 2.0*

These universal remotes are trash. The connection fails often. It also lists every television in the house that already has a remote, yet the tv I need to use this app for, is never listed. They also hope you’ll forget to cancel subscription. I’ll go to the store and buy one. It is not worth the headache for this “convenience!”
